Apple Designs a Way to Hide a Camera in the Apple Watch’s Crown
Apple has designed a way to hide a camera inside the digital crown of an Apple Watch which would presumably allow users to stealthily take photos directly with the popular smartwatch.

We've already seen that Apple plans to take some serious photographic steps forward when it comes to the its newest mobile operating system, iOS 8, but we have yet to find out what the Cupertino giant has up its sleeve hardware wise.
Of course, even if we haven't heard from Apple, that doesn't mean we don't have some idea what's on the way. As the iPhone 6's inevitable announcement draws ever nearer, vague hardware rumors are beginning to solidify.
Published earlier today and already discovered by AppleInsider, a new patent from Apple seems to show that the Cupertino company would like to put swappable lenses in future iPhones. The camera in the iPhone 4S is already great -- it was even used all by itself for an editorial fashion shoot -- but there is always room to improve in creative ways and swappable lenses are certainly uncharted territory for a camera phone.
