iPhone Hack: Changing the Camera Focus
Thursday, August 28th, 2008 at 4:00 PM - by Jeff Gamet
Apples iPhone and iPhone 3G include a fixed-focus camera, which is fine for most photos you might take with the combination iPod and smartphone, but not it you want to take close-up shots. Daniel Forsythe has a hack to change that, but only for the brave and daring iPhone owners willing to void their warranty.

When successfully finished, youll have an iPhone or iPhone 3G that focuses to the depth you want, but keep in mind that Apple probably wont honor your warranty or AppleCare if you have any problems.
