$40 lens set from Photojojo, said to work with any camera phone

Photojojo, an online photography retailer, has introduced a set of inexpensive camera lenses said to “work with any camera phone”. First in the set is a wide angle/macro lens. This allows users to take both wide shots as well as close-ups. The second is a fisheye lens. For those who want to get creative this lens curves the edges of photos, turning a square image into what looks like a sphere. The wide/macro sells for $20, the fisheye for $25, or you can get them both for $40. The lenses attach via a small metal ring which is placed around the phones existing camera lens. The lens is then attached to the metal ring with magnets. This seems like a nice edition for a phone with a high megapixel count such as the Droid X (8 MP). Is anybody out there looking for something like this? Let us know in the comments.

    I got the macro/wide angle lens from Sourcingmap.com for 17.95. It fits inside my JLab earbud holder for my Evo, so its always available. Like he saying goes, the best camera is the one you are carrying. I’ve used the closeup lens to take photos for my work (Metallurgical engineer). Reasonable quality for the price.
