What is a good External Camera for the iPhone?

External Camera for iPhone

Gents and Ladies,

I could really really benefit from running an external camera into my iPhone. I can't seem to find anything that would support, say, an external USB webcam input into the iPhone (via, say, the Camera Connect Kit). Is there no jailbreak app for this? I can run it off a powered USB hub if needed.

The other option I guess is a tethered camera feed. For instance, the goPro app allows a (semi) live feed into the iPhone.... but, I want the feed to go into the camera app so other apps that use the camera believe it's coming from the built in camera. No jailbreak for this either?

Thanks!

I believe what you want to do is not possible even with jailbreak...
