DIY iPhone Macro Lens

Some long time ago I saw a post on DIYphotography “Super Macro Your Cellphone Camera With A DVD Lens“, and I decided to try and make the same thing only with the laser pen I’ve got dusting around for quite a while. I made a step by step tutorial how to make a macro lens for iPhone or any other cellphone as well.

1. Get yourself a laser pen.

2. Screw the top off and get the lens out.

3. Put the lens on the cellphone camera lens and fix it on it, I used some office gum thing.
