Home made Nokia 6280 with SLR optics and 36x optical zoom!

Over at Chaos Projects, we’ve spotted one weird device – Nokia 6280 with SLR optics. The phone isn’t actually approved by Nokia — rather it’s a home-made project, but the end result is the camera phone with 36x optical zoom! And although it’s not pocketable anymore, this baby can take some serious photos…

Check out the full instructions how to do-it-yourself and a demo shot from here.

(Thanks Peter)

Dusan Belic

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
