MAKE: Blog: Mobile phone telescope makes your crappy phone cam into a spy cam

Mobile phone telescope makes your crappy phone cam into a spy cam

Just strap the "Mobile Phone Telescope" to your Motorola RAZR cell phone using its accompanying installation kit and you too can become James Bond. The lens lets you zoom in for ideal paparazzi pics, but we think it might look a bit too conspicuous for the average photo junkie. Still it's a pretty simple kit to put together and will enhance your viewing angle quite a bit, but we're still waiting for the iPhone version.
