    Replacement Camera Sensor "without" lenses

    A long shot, but does anybody know if this is possible? Or do you know how I could go about stripping the lenses off of the module? I would like to leave the Gorilla Glass screen on the outer housing in place which is easy enough, it's just removing the glass within the module itself I am...

    Hello all, I've been a lurker on here for too long and it is now time for me to contribute! A little bit about me, I am hugely impressed with the camera on the Lumia 1020, and also Windows Phone 8. I upgraded from a HTC Titan which was no slouch either, but the Nokia is light years ahead! I...
