How to zoom when you don't have your DSLR

What do you do when that time arises and you don't have your camera handy to zoom in and really make the most of the shot?  Sure, you can dig into your handbag and pull out the trusty iphone and attempt to zoom in without it pixelating too much or else you can try this cool little gadget.

It is a neat little snap on  iphone case with twistable 10 x optical zoom attachment.  It has a manual lens feature so you can focus on different distances and then focus with your iphone by tapping on the screen. 

It's super handy just to keep in your car or handbag without the hassle of carrying around an expensive bulky camera for those chance moments (or running the risk of theft).



Great also for videoing or streaming on skype.  I bought mine for about $20 on ebay, so I don't expect DSLR quality but it is perfect for on the go over the Summer months.

Do you have any little funky tools to help with your photography?  I'd love to know!
