Olloclip announces telephoto lens for iPhone 5, we go handson

Remember the Olloclip lens for the iPhone 4? That model’s done mighty well in Apple retail stores, so it’s only fitting that there’s a follow-up. Today at the CE Week line show in New York, we got a look at the company’s upcoming telephoto lens, which complements the original clip-on by adding 2X magnification. Priced at $100 versus $70 for its predecessor, the accessory offers a circular polarizing lens on the other side, keeping in line with the company’s existing two-in-one design. You can get the standalone clip-on lens for the aforementioned price when the gadget debuts in July — it’s compatible with Olloclip’s previously announced $49 iPhone 5 case as well.
