Dedicated to inspiring designers, inventors & the creative spirit in all of us.

It doesn’t take many words to introduce the next set of photographs. Just enjoy.

After watching “Objectified” and listening to the reasoning behind the design of today’s cameras, based on the old cameras that actually held a roll of film and clicked as a function not a sound effect, I found this camera design to be refreshing. The Nova Concept DSLR is designed to emulate the ergonomics of a video game controller. The switchblade handle design and button array offer a fresh approach to how electronics are conceived. The only problem is that this camera is only a concept. Some day perhaps, some day.

Ok, I thought that I had found the ultimate camera a few posts back, but I stand corrected. The Hole-On Ex uses the pinhole camera technique, which takes longer, but adds more character to what you choose to capture. I have taken the time to construct cardboard models and can appreciate the effort in creating this scale model camera. The kit comes complete with instructions, but you have to supply your own 35 mm film. After such a great effort to make digital photography the standard, there is still a desire for doing things the old way, as you can see by this well-designed build-it-yourself camera.
