My Problem
The rear facing camera on my girlfriend's iPhone 5 took blurry pics.
My Fix
I didn't order the replacement camera from iFizit at first. I bought one from Amazon, the camera worked but the flash didn't. Next I bought one off eBay, and the flash worked but the camera didn't. Finally I paid a little more for a camera from iFixit and everything worked perfectly!
Take your time, use a tray with multiple compartments to keep your screws organized for each step, and it's really not a difficult repair.
My Advice
You may have to pry up the bezel that the original flash sits in, if your replacement camera includes the complete housing for the flash. Took me a while to figure this out as it wasn't shown in the instruction pictures and it required some bravery to carefully pry it loose.
