The iPhone’s biggest drawback is the camera. Agreed. But not quite so. In fact you can turn it into a camera witha super macro mode. All you need to do is just work your way around the iPhone’s hardware a bit.

Rip open the iPhone. I mean, do that gently. Take the glue off the iPhone lens and roatet counterclockwise for making closer objects in focus, while rotating clockwise goes back out. The camera becomes ok enough to take neat shots of bar-codes and staffs like that.

The whole process takes a lot of dis-assembling and re-assembling. Not to forget that you need nifty, nimble, stylus like fingers to dis-figure, con-figure and re-figure the whole thing.
For the step-by-step detail, we leave you with Flickr-er Daniel Forsythe, the person who has actually come up with this brilliant idea.
