Basically what you need is a small lens to magnify your existing camera lens to take some close up macro. Then hold the lens over your camera lens and viola.

This is what you need:

  1. Extract small lens from old DVD player/burner, a disposable camera or just take apart a cheap laser pointer.

  2. Mount your lens either by using some duct tape and Blu-Tack or put it between hair clamp and use tape to secure it from moving.

    use some duct tape to mount your lens directly, use or blue Tack to hold the card mount put that macro lens between hair clamp and used Macgyver's tape to secure it from moving as a macro lens for iPhone, Image credits: Photographs by Zaheer Mohiuddin

  3. Now you can take some awesome close up macro pictures.
