"Yamada Denshi, has developed an add-on to Vodafone handsets, intended to be used as a night filter to allow Big Red's customers to take pictures with their phones in the dark.
Unfortunately, the night vision camera has an unexpected side effect - in the right circumstances, it allows users to see a lot more than they bargained for.
The handset most often used with the £100 filter - the V602-SH - is only available in Japan.
According to a Vodafone spokeswoman: "We would never go to market with a phone with any kind of capacity to see people naked."
