giordano Posted May 19, 2010 Share #5 Posted May 19, 2010 What I really like is that he's used a USSR donor body, thus creating a fake digital Leica. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WestMichigan Posted May 19, 2010 Share #7 Posted May 19, 2010 Advertisement (gone after registration) +1 to the Original Poster! Make that +10! I LOVE just about everything about the concept and the execution of it. I personally would love to be able to BUY a digital camera looked like this. The 'world' is punching out a kabillion point n shoots by a sea of camera makers and nobody can come up with a straight forward 'replica' of a Leica 111f or a nikon rf or a tlr? Those 'faux' minox/leica/rolleiflex miniatures would be terrific, to me, except they're MINIATURES! Anyway, thanks to the original poster for a cool link Graci Richard in Michigan Double fake, like double secret probation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

250swb Posted May 22, 2010 Share #11 Posted May 22, 2010 After a moment stunned, came the angry dwarf. Now if that isn't a clear description of what to do I don't know what is! Either way its all a great idea and as DIY goes is much better than putting up shelves. Steve Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
