You can almost anything out of LEGOs, so why not a camera? It looks like a toy, but this is a fully functioning camera with 1.5" LCD screen, flash, focus, and digital zoom that holds up to 80 photos. It doesn't come apart but you can stick extra LEGO bricks on the top to customize the look of your camera.
The future is here! The WowWee Spyball is a robotic camera on wheels that zips around taking secret videos and still shots. The camera pops up like a periscope and folds back down for a stealthy getaway. The Spyball can be controlled via Internet for long-range peeping or by remote for short-distance spying. The owner can then stream the video captured on any home Wi-Fi network. The camera's functionality includes a full 360 degree turning radius for total coverage. We can only imagine all the ways in which Spyball might be abused, but it's more fun knowing you can finally catch someone in the act.("I know you borrowed my jeans last night, I have it on film!.ahaaa no lying!")
If you're feeling crafty, why not make your own pinhole camera using one the free downloadable templates from Readymech? Above are a few wacky and whimsical designs available. A pinhole camera (check out how they work right here) isn't the most practical for travel, but it's the perfect way to take a have some fun with the office printer.
This is another pinhole camera that you can purchase on the cheap and put together yourself. It's made from high quality paper and comes with a detachable 32mm lens.
This dual-lensed beauty from Holga creates dreamy 3D images using a built-in color flash with rotating color filter wheel. It takes two photos at once that can be developed into deeply saturated, old-school slides. View them on the 3D Stereo Viewer for the full effect, or develop the photos onto regular film.
You'll get a print with two side-by-side images for posterity.
If you're looking for a functional and easy to use handheld digital camera, the Pentax H90 is one of the best. The design is clean and modern and the internal features make it a snap to shoot anything from portraits to large scale events. Plus it comes in a few different color schemes for added individuality.
The ViviCam 46 from Vivitar is a very affordable mini-digital camera that stores over 100 photos. It's basic and lightweight (perfect for travel!) but also has a stylish design and enough functionality to make it appropriate for the casual photographer.
Kodak's classic Polaroid camera may be a thing of the past, but the Fujifilm Instamax is a good substitute with an affordable price point. The rounded design is very hip and the credit-card sized photos it spits out are brightly colored and vivid. Plus the camera is compact enough to tote along to parties and events for some point-and-shoot fun.
So guys, which one would be your favourite?:))
wow!!!it looks like lego.interesting,my younger sister definitely will take it away from me if i use it..:p
ReplyDeleteThese cameras are super cute. If and only if I have one of those. Yeah, I have a DSLR but I don't really like it as it is bulky and heavy. A sweet and cute camera like Pentax H90 and Vivitar will suit me well.:P
ReplyDeleteI love the lego, SOOOO CUTE >.<!
ReplyDeletei always wanted to buy the lego one but i think i'd looked childish with those.
ReplyDeletePinhole camera is considered as the cheapest and easiest camera one can make, by using things around you. It can be made from sardine can or match box :D Both Holga and pinhole are Lomography type camera. It uses film and needs to be developed to see the result. It's good to see someone highlight some film cameras here :) Lomo on!
ReplyDeletep/s: err.. a correction here, I think it's Fujifilm Instax.
