Is this the first real photo of the iPad 3?

Is the above camera lens the iPad 3's rumored new 8MP camera?
Chinese media outlet Apple Daily claims it is.

Earlier today, the site released a photograph it claims is the first authentic image of the iPad 3. The photograph shows a slightly modified back bezel with a more pronounced curve, and a slightly bigger camera lens.

If true--given the frenzied feed of iPad 3 rumors, it's no guarantee--both changes may mean that iPad 2 cases won't work with this new release. 

Apple Daily did not release any photos of the front of the device. 

A spate of rumors indicate that Apple intends to officially announce the iPad 3 in early March. Other reports appear to have confirmed the presence of a 2048 x 1536 display as well as a quad-core ARM-based processor.
