Engadget: Rave review for Olloclip three-in-one iPhone 4 lens
Wow, this sounds very cool, especially because of its macro capabilities:

We were perhaps most impressed with the macro lens, which essentially functions as a very powerful magnifying glass for your iPhone. We were able to capture incredible detail with this lens. In a photo we shot of our high-density notebook display, we could clearly make out individual red, green, and blue pixels. This capability alone is enough to justify the expense of adding the Olloclip, especially for anyone who enjoys macro photography but doesn’t have the luxury of having a pro kit nearby at all times.

Here’s the Engadget review.

iPhone 8X telephoto lens from PhotoJojo
I haven’t really been a fan of telephoto lenses for the iPhone, but I’m thinking about checking out this one, sold by PhotoJojo for $35. According to PhotoJojo, “Each telephoto lens comes with a phone case, a mini-tripod and a cleaning cloth.”
Here are some of the details from PhotoJojo:
Each lens comes with a sleek, matte black iPhone case that you twist the lens onto. To compose your shot just twist the grip on the lens’ manual focus ring to make it sharp. 
When you aren’t using the lens you can just leave your nifty new case on and slip the lens in your pocket.
It’s a lens and case in one, always at the ready.  
If you’re looking for a more composed shot, you can use the collapsible table tripod (included) to steady and focus your photos.
