Clarifi iPhone Case (Image courtesy Griffin Technology)
By Andrew Liszewski

After using an iPhone for a couple of years now, I only yesterday realized how poor the camera’s macro capabilities were. Now obviously it’s not something I use on a regular basis, but the ability to snap usable photos of text from magazine articles or even business cards can definitely come in handy. So the options for iPhone 2G or 3G users are to either upgrade to the new 3GS, which could be rather expensive depending on your current contract, or just grab this Clarifi case from Griffin Technology for just $30.99 (currently on sale).

Not only will the durable polycarbonate case protect your phone, but it also features a sliding macro lens on the back which improves the iPhone camera’s focus distance from about 18 inches down to 4 inches, allowing you to finally take half-decent close-up shots.

  1. This is the first thing I bought when I got my iPhone 3G, and it's great for taking photos of phone numbers and other printed things, as well as general macro shots. Also great to have if you use Evernote.

    Btw, it's about $9 cheaper on Amazon, but since it's around $22 there you'll have to pad your cart with something to hit the $25 mark to qualify for free shipping.
