I have been increasingly suffering from dust specs and smudges on my iPhone 5 lens. At least I assumed it was my lens. Turned out the ‘dust’ was actually in the camera sensor itself and not cleanable at all. You can see the smudges and specks quite clearly in this photo. It was, unfortunately, getting \u00a0increasingly worse. In the end I bit the bullet and made use of Apple’s replacement program and shelled out the $269 to replace my phone.<\/p>\n

So today was about testing out the camera and ensuring the problem was gone.<\/p>\n

Using the Camera+ app I realized the zoom would work quite well as a macro feature. Artemis volunteered to pose so I could try it out. It is a digital zoom though so the quality does degenerate. Still, not bad for a camera on a phone…<\/p>\n
