Baring the fact that there is no flash on this camera, this kit is quite cool. After you assemble it you will have a simple point and shoot fixed focus camera. Now, as your building it I don’t see any reason not to add a flash sync contact on the shutter (I did that with a 110 camera in my youth) and who knows what else. Hey, this may become a popular modding platform!

i saw this at archee mcphees when i was in seattle in january, and i regret not picking it up. i think i may have to have someone go back and send me one over. 🙂
Now that’s a good reason to go to Seattle (other than a good friend is there). I think everyone should build at least one camera, it’s a magical thing. Even is it’s a kit like this or a cardboard pinhole camera. 🙂
BTW, thank you for the very kind words about my blog, your is on my reading list too.
