Simple MOD to Protect Camera Lens!!

For those of you that do not want to put your precious baby in a case but are worried about scratching or cracking the camera lens. Here is the best $1.38 you will spend!! I bought this O Ring at Home Depot. Add a little bead of Super Glue and here you have it.

The white specs that you see in the pictures is actually dust, not glue!

Re: Simple MOD to Protect Camera Lens!!

I will admit that it is a creative solution. That said, I would never do that to my EVO. Personally I don't like the way it looks and am not that worried about my lens getting messed up. But hey, if you're happy with it, good for you! Like I said, it was a cheap and creative solution.

Re: Simple MOD to Protect Camera Lens!!

nice...... but you could have achieved the same protection with a scrap screen protector ( hard screen protector works best). Hole punch a 1in circle and apply.

plus the cost is roughly the same and the benefit is it can be removed and replaced -- no broken warranty.

Re: Simple MOD to Protect Camera Lens!!

nice ideas....I use a case but many times set the phone down, and constantly worry about scratching the plastic.

Re: Simple MOD to Protect Camera Lens!!

kinda ghetto but creative nonetheless... I say rubberized case ftmfw, saved my ass a few times =) and protects the lense because of it's thickness doesn't allow the lense to touch any suface even when laying flat on it's back...
