How To Turn Your iPhone Into A Microscope For Only $10.

Ok, this is just really cool…someone just found an elegant way to fix a small microscope to an IPhone case, making it real simple to take microscopic images with the IPhone camera. (Although the microscope attachment seems to keep increasing in price as more people view the video and try to buy it….it’s gone from $5 to over $10 in the past few days!)

It’s only around 4X magnification, but that’s enough to get some nicely detailed images, like the picture of a leaf above.

And anyway, at higher magnifications it might get more difficult to get enough light to get a good photo.

Be sure to check out the video below for full instructions and examples.
