Inquisitive minds of the creators of unusual devices very often turn to photo and video equipment.
The most unusual cameras in the world today are presented in our top ten. Each of them is unique in its own way: design, features, innovative features. And although most of these cameras will never go into mass production, the inventiveness of the inventors is respected.
10. Zippo Lighter Camera hides a VGA-camera with a resolution of 640 x 480 inside. The device has 64 MB of internal memory, a connector for connecting to a computer via USB and a timer function.
9. Seitz Camera It has a set of functions that can please many photography enthusiasts - 160 megapixels to create a live picture of 6 x 17 cm, shutter speed 1/20000 seconds, data transfer rate 300Mb / s, and ISO range from 500 to 10000. Among the camera’s disadvantages perhaps its price should be mentioned - 32,266 US dollars.
8. BINOCA01 from Thanko Is a symbiosis of binoculars and a 2-megapixel camera. The camera is powered by 2 AA batteries, pictures can be recorded using 32 MB of internal memory, alas, there are no slots for memory cards. As there is no LCD display to view photos taken. But the dimensions of the camera are quite miniature - 116 x 67 x 37 mm with a weight of 215 g.
7. Gopro digital hero - This is a wrist camera, among which features a resolution of 648 x 480 photos, 320x240 video, 32 MB of internal memory, and also a waterproof case up to 30 meters deep. So that the camera does not interfere, it can be pressed to the wrist, and “bent” to the working state before shooting.
6. 360 Camera by Cedric Tay is the perfect tool for panoramic photography. In the process, it’s enough to hold the camera with one hand, almost all control is carried out using sensors, i.e. there are practically no buttons and sliders on the smooth body of the device.
5. Concept Canon snap - This is a look into the future from a renowned camera manufacturer. A miniature but powerful device can be worn on the finger. The only button on the camera body suggests a few limited possibilities, although the developers claim that the Canon Snap is quite capable of competing with the most expensive modern devices.
4. Flying Wand from designer Tsuno Wang is designed for shooting from a height. The camera rod is unwound in the palms, then the device soars into the air and begins to take pictures automatically at a certain frequency. Perhaps, we are not talking about high quality, but the camera, of course, turned out to be very unusual.
3. Triops - These are three super-wide-angle lenses in one device. The camera shoots in any position, reacts to sound, movement or manual control. Among the additional features - panoramic shooting and sports mode for shooting moving objects. According to the creator of Francisco Faoro, Triops is easy to use and has an intuitive user interface. A special device is provided for storing and viewing photos, as well as recharging the camera.
2. Samsung concept is a hybrid of a camera and a photo frame. The camera does not have any settings, its task is to automatically shoot. To use the gadget in the photo frame mode, a built-in “foot” stand is provided, and for the convenience of shooting in camera mode on a thin body there is a barrel-shaped grip.
1.Touch sight Is a unique camera for visually impaired and part-time people the most unusual camera in the world. The audio recording function, activated for a few seconds after the shutter is released, allows you to make voice notes for each picture. Naturally, there is no LCD screen in the device, but there is a 3-D Braille screen. Without seeing the image, users can "feel" the pictures. Whatever the opinions of skeptics about Touch Sight, the unusual and important social orientation of this project cannot be denied.
