IKEA may seem like nothing more than a necessary evil for those who don’t wanna drop a full paycheck on a single piece of furniture (and hey, their pre-fab systems and some in-store displays are actually quite innovative…), but this here is some next level shiz: an eco-friendly, cardboard-bodied digital camera.
Shoots/stores up to 40 images, uses AA batteries (which, if you can find them hiding in the remote control, are a lot more convenient than clunky camera batteries which require special chargers), and it even features a super-handy swing-out USB plug for downloading your pure photo gold.
Not available in stores yet, but anticipated soon. And… not saying this will replace your iphone/droid, but I guarantee it’ll be a conversation-starter at parties or on location for your next commercial gig…

be as a party piece. Btw sorry for the double post. Not used to the trackpad of the MBP yet which seems to be a pain when typing with my palms flat on the surfice…
Haha. Looking cool but won’t be waterproof to an extend I reckon. Maybe it’ll compete with the LEGO camera. You should make a video about the camera for sure 🙂 Where are all those ideas coming from and will there be a market for them? In times where smartphones feature multi megapixel resolution, full hd video and compact cameras like the J1 and V1 offer so much flexibility.
As cute as they might look but personally i don’t realy see a future in the mainstream market for them. May
Got to be getting myself one of those. Not sure if I could go to IKIA though, online store perhaps.
Might have to get one of these cameras for my camera collection.
Haha!!! This could have been used for DigitalRevTv’s Pro Photographer Crap Camera challenge haha! Remember Chase??
