Olloclip for iPhone 5? Does it even exist? What do you do? We're here to find out...


So, now that you have your shiny new iPhone 5, what are you going to do with your old Olloclip lens?!? (if you had one, that is) Well, fear no more, as the "new gadget-old accessories" problem is now solved when it comes to a lens kit. This Photojojo lens kit works universally on anything with a flat surface that can fit inside the adhesive ring, and then the lens just magnetically snaps right into place. But, what about the Olloclip, you say? Well, here are a couple of options...


The first, and best IMO, thing to do would be to take a look at this video of the Photojojo lens kit. It's great because you can put it on many different devices and it's not limited to the iPhone only. It'll work with an iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPad (best with 1st gen as it's flatter, but fine with 2nd, and 3rd), iMac, MacBook FaceTime camera, Samsung Galaxy Note, Galaxy Note 2 (II), Galaxy S3, and many others. I can't vouch for it's compatibility with it's Android counterparts from experience, but check the compatibility chart on their website for more info.

I have one of the cutout adhesive metal rings on my MacBook Pro (Retina) and it's great when using Skype to video conference with people, or relatives in other locations. It's a great kit because of it's universal-ness and should be given kudos because of it's great price of: $49 Check out the video 



Second thing you can do, is modify your Olloclip lens to work with your shiny new iPhone 5. How? Here's how:
