The OPT100 NeoFilm 100 by Opt! brings back vintage film rolls by making the rear part into miniature and functional digital cameras. Sized at 35mm, the cartridge device can fit into a pocket or small bag or even hang as an accessory. Colorways such as Yellow and Black, Multi, and White and Orange reinforce the retro reference, and these combinations are also seen in the graphic language of analog packaging. The film roll digital camera may be miniature, but it can still capture images at 3760 x 2128 resolution and record a full HD video at 1920 x 1080 (30fps). It stores the files on a microSDHC card of up to 32GB, which users can connect to a reader to transfer files.

silicone-looking barrel as the device’s case

Over time, designs from the past catch their second wind, as the current generation stumbles upon them and tries to bring them back. It’s the same case for the OPT100 NeoFilm 100, which steers away from holding bulky smartphones in hands. The device fits two fingers, and the small display at the back already reflects the retro filters that apps and social media platforms offer. The lens is positioned at the center of the film roll digital camera, and near it is the sensor, almost invisible with its size.

Just above the sensor lies the tiny flash. Wrapped around the film roll digital camera is the retro design of the skin, and from the images, users may be able to peel them off. The shutter button is on the side of the canister, and to protect the device, the brand even includes the silicone-looking barrel, similar to the ones that film rolls had. The miniature digital camera is rechargeable, and users can continuously use it for around an hour. It weighs just around 25 grams, and its proportions are 47 by 25 by 25 millimeters. Looking at it, the film roll digital camera is a familiar reminder of the past, coming back to playfully let users capture images and videos the retro way.

Studio Seven releases a palm-sized retro digital toy camera that hooks around belts or bags for portable picture- and video-taking.  A means to celebrate its seventh-year anniversary, the device resembles a toy but is actually functional and can capture images and videos the retro way. The camera is compact and lightweight, measuring small enough to fit in the palm of a hand and weighing around 15 grams. Its body is made from molded plastic with a smooth surface finish, and the color design follows the studio’s signature palette, which is orange and white.

The lens sits on the front in a simple circular housing, and a small button above it serves as the shutter control. There’s a small viewfinder, and next to it, users press the button to capture images and videos directly. The design takes inspiration from early film cameras, especially compact point-and-shoot models from the late 20th century. But unlike those analog versions, the retro toy camera is digital and stores images and videos on a microSD card. In this way, the stored files can be transferred to a computer using the included USB cable.

Single shutter button refers to disposable cameras in the past

Specs-wise, the device can save images with a resolution of 1280 x 960 pixels and AVI video files in 640 x 480 pixels. These settings are basic and designed for casual use, plus the built-in sensor captures color images that are slightly grainy, imitating the visual effect of older film photographs. This gives the output a low-resolution appearance similar to early digital and toy cameras. The device’s body includes a metal keychain ring, which allows it to be attached to bags, belts, or clothing. This makes it possible to carry it easily and use it whenever needed.

The package also includes a strap, a USB cable for charging and data transfer, and an instruction manual. The camera does not include any internal memory, so users must insert a microSD card before shooting. A note from the studio that the retro digital toy camera is not waterproof or dustproof, so it is not intended for outdoor use under harsh conditions. The gadget also operates with a single button, meaning one press for photos and a longer press for videos, to keep it simple, similar to a disposable film camera but with the ability to reuse and download images.

Kodak revives the retro point-and-shoot photography and vintage filters with the miniature keychain digital Charmera. A modern twist on the brand’s first signature single-use camera, the KODAK Fling, the device brings back the throwaway cameras from the 1980s, now able to save and transfer photos and videos using a USB-C cable and without using any film rolls. The compact and portable device functions as both a digital camera and a collectible item. It is so small that four of these can fit in the user’s hand.

The Kodak digital Charmera with a keychain includes seven different retro-style filters replicating the nostalgic film and vintage photography aesthetics. Alongside these, there are four different Kodak-branded frames that add decorative borders to images and the return of classic photography elements like film sprocket holes or vintage camera branding. A date stamp feature allows users to mark their photos with shooting dates, which is a common feature from film cameras of earlier decades.

Retro Device model with transparent shell 

Inside the compact case sits a digital image sensor that captures both still photographs and video recordings. The camera processes images through built-in software that applies vintage-style filters and frames automatically. There’s no need for them to develop any film; it is all digital. The Kodak digital Charmera with a keychain also connects to external devices through a USB-C port for file transfers without needing WiFi connections. The device requires a micro SD card to store the images and videos, another feature that now seems unusual in personal gadgets.

Kodak offers its digital Charmera with a keychain in seven designs, and one of them comes with a transparent shell so users can partly see the components inside. When they flip the device, a small screen allows them to see the pictures and videos they’ve taken. Another stunt that the brand pulls is the ‘blind box’ selling, meaning users don’t know what kind of design they’re getting until they open the box. Retro photography appeals to the new(er) generation, and Kodak hopes to contribute to the trend through its digital Charmera with a keychain.

The Sasquatch 617 is a panoramic, medium-format film camera developed by industrial designer Derek Chiang in collaboration with industrial and graphic designer Ellie Kim. The project responds to the challenge of capturing wide, uninterrupted landscapes beyond the limits of standard photographic framing.

Unlike stitched digital panoramas, which reconstruct scenes from multiple images, the Sasquatch 617 produces a continuous photograph, making it suited for dynamic environments with movement, such as trees in the wind or breaking waves.

Sasquatch 617 expands the limits of panoramic photography

The camera is constructed with a 304 stainless steel exterior frame combined with 3D printed polycarbonate components. With a lens attached, the system weighs approximately 1kg. Functional features include a focusing ring, a rear door panel for full access, and manual film advance knobs. Optional accessories extend usability and include a magnetically attached viewfinder, a magnetically attached shutter release cable, and a protective lens cover.

The Sasquatch 617 model is designed as a robust tool for outdoor use while maintaining precision in construction and operation. Pre-orders will be available on Kickstarter in September 2025, with shipping planned for late December.

Ridhima Saini shows what modern cameras such as the Sony Alpha 7R could look like if they were handcrafted from wood again. The student designer helps bring back the period when photographic devices used wood as their primary material, like the camera obscura. For this project, she crafts the wooden camera to match the Sony Alpha 7R’s real shape and size, guided by Mr. Trilok Chauhan, as her goal is to make the scale model look and feel like its real counterpart. While the main body and material are wood, she uses metal and acrylic for the details, with the latter being used around and in the part of the lens alongside medium-density fiberboard.

The Sony Alpha 7R wooden camera’s grip comprises 22 fiberboard pieces, each having the same size, so when they’re stacked together, they form a curve. There’s a movable dial inside the grip, and a three-millimeter aluminum rod works as the axis. The designer also uses a small diamond file to cut the grooves on the dial’s edge, giving it texture and making it easier to turn. The knobs are also made from aluminum rod, and for the screen that can rotate 180 degrees, the team cut three small cuboids, two of them longer to let the screen turn, and a steel rod is inserted into the holes to act as the hinge pin, allowing the screen cover to rotate all the way around the axis. Finally, the team sands every wooden part of the Sony Alpha 7R camera to smoothen its parts.

The Role of Wood in Early photography devices

In the past, the frames of camera obscuras were made of cardboard boxes and paper, with lenses made of plastic magnifying glasses. Controlling light was important in these devices because the light coming from outside could ruin the image, so wood was an ideal material because it was dark and blocked light well. The material was malleable, so it took on shapes easily, and it didn’t react with chemicals or give off odors, which were then useful features in traditional photography. Wood was able to keep the temperature and sound stable inside the camera too, as it is naturally ideal for vibration absorption, a handy helper during long camera exposures.

But wood was also heavy, as seen in the dubbed first daguerreotype camera, made by French art restorer Alphonse Giroux. It was a wooden box design with sliding parts weighing over 40 pounds, so it absorbed water from the air and could make it expand or shrink. This caused the wood to change shape, crack, or bend. As camera designs became more precise, it became a serious issue because small changes in shape could ruin the picture by misaligning the lens or film. Because of this, at least as one of the reasons, the cameras shifted from using wood to metal when the technology became more advanced.

Ridhima Saini shows what Sony Alpha 7R could look like if it were handcrafted from wood

Shifting to Metal in Camera Design

During the Industrial Revolution, machines were invented that could produce metal parts, and cameras began to use metal bodies, a material considered stronger and more stable than wood. When Austrian optician Peter Friedrich Voigtländer made a metal camera in 1841, it was a step forward and a shift because it consisted of metal instead of wood and featured the faster Petzval lens. By the late 1800s and early 1900s, metal cameras became more prevalent, and they were found to be easier to carry, last longer, and allow for more complex features. The camera body was more than just a container but a part of the system that produced high-quality images. It also helped that metal did not change shape with heat or moisture, and it could support better lens systems.

Photography improved over time, as better lenses needed more accurate camera parts. Wooden parts were not cut out for lighter, faster, and more convenient cameras, and so the manufactured, metal-looking photographic devices began spreading out. These days, however, shifting to metal from wood misses the touch of manual craftsmanship in exchange for faster production using machines. The distinctive care in crafting cameras is absent, as human hands were replaced by machines. But designers like Ridhima Saini are able to bring wooden cameras back, even if, at the moment, her Sony Alpha 7R is a scale model and not a functional one. It poses an example that, given the current technologies at hand, new cameras have a future of using natural materials that revive their distinctive character and traditional craftsmanship amidst automated production.

Poetry Camera makes and prints poems about the people, objects, and surroundings it photographs using AI. Reminiscent of an instant camera, there’s a large, protruding camera lens on the boxy frame, which scans the subject. Below it, there’s a slit where the receipt-like paper prints out the poems that the AI Poetry Camera digitally pens. The design looks comical with the sizeable shutter button and viewfinder, but there’s also a nostalgic sense about it, knowing that it gives the user stanzas on a piece of paper rather than projecting them on a screen.

The AI language model that the Poetry Camera uses is from Anthropic named Claude 4. It’s the reason the device can write poems almost instantly using literary language. The user can choose the type of AI-generated poem they want, from haiku, sonnet, and limerick to alliteration and free verse, using the built-in knob. So far, the images and poems aren’t stored digitally on the Poetry Camera, meaning that the only copy the user has is the printed receipt.

Device needs wifi connection to work

Kelin Zhang and Ryan Mather, the masterminds behind the Poetry Camera, have a ‘microfactory’ in New York where they assemble the device by hand. It’s a small team because they want to individually piece the parts together to add their personal touch to the end result. The frame is made of vacuum-cast plastic housings, and the device runs on a Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W with a Raspberry Pi Camera Module 3. There’s a catch, however. The device can’t work without a WiFi connection. It relies on it to make the language model work and start churning out AI-made poems. The team says that the Poetry Camera that can write poems doesn’t train the AI model it uses. About Anthropic’s Claude 4, they add that they ‘care to pick reputable AI model providers that do not train on your data.’ 

The design team says that the device is a toy for creative expression. Ryan Mather shares with designboom that he and Kelin Zhang choose printed poetry instead of photos ‘to invite you to slow down and appreciate the world around you. It’s kind of like how people tend to prefer the book version of a movie more than the movie version because their memories and imagination feel more personal and special.’ For those who are crafty, they can build the device on their own, as Kelin Zhang and Ryan Mather make it open-source. In case the user isn’t so handy, they can just order the Poetry Camera and allow it to write and print the poems on a piece of paper.

David Lynch artifacts, from movie props and unfinished scripts to his very own cameras, musical instruments, furniture designs, and even a custom director’s chair, head to auction. On June 18th, 2025, starting at 10am Pacific Time in Los Angeles, the David Lynch collection auction event by Julien’s Auctions and Turner Classic Movies takes place. It is part of the auction company’s and network’s Hollywood Legends series of archival collections from the industry’s revered figures. For the David Lynch collection auction, the event presents over 450 items that come directly from the filmmaker’s home and personal possessions.

The sale hopes to offer a look at his creative life through the personal artifacts he used to use and work with in his everyday and cinematic life.  The items originate from his film projects, his personal woodshop, and his art studio, so much so that they include props, art supplies, furniture he designed and built, and equipment from his music recording studio. In fact, the handmade coffee table, one-of-one conference table, and homemade wheeled cabinet the filmmaker designed are in the auction event. Other items connect to his other films and personal interests, such as a set of four prop menus from the Winkie’s diner location in the film Mulholland Drive. There is also a boomerang-style sofa of the same model seen in the 1997 film Lost Highway.

Xiaomi reveals its modular magnetic lens that turns smartphones into digital cameras during MWC 2025 in Barcelona. Dubbed the Xiaomi Mobile Optical System, the magnetic lens clips right in the middle of the smartphone’s rear, reminiscent of the digital camera back in the days. It features a regular double-Gauss lens as well as Light Fusion X with a custom M4/3 sensor. This means the design team reshapes the light paths of the sensor and finetunes the sensor so that the magnetic lens can capture images and record videos like a digital camera.

The company says the result presents sharp images and videos, even if the modular magnetic lens looks compact and pocket-sized. So far, Xiaomi says that the digital camera-like lens can offer 100 megapixel capacity to the smartphones, independent of the megapixels already offered by the phone cameras. It latches onto the rear of the device and is removable, so it’s not bulky when the user brings it in their pockets. At the moment, the company says that users just need to plug in the modular magnetic lens to start using it.

Modular magnetic lens that takes sharp images

For specs buffs, the Xiaomi modular magnetic lens for smartphones has lossless streams of RAW data transfer for images and videos captured by the digital camera-like lens. The company shares that users can transfer these files wirelessly to the Xiaomi AISP, which is dubbed the first AI LM computational photography platform. It’s because of this technology that the images and videos captured have 16 stops of dynamic range, making them clearer and sharper compared to those taken by a smartphone without the digital camera lens.

The company adds that users don’t need to pair or charge the device. It hasn’t explained yet how the device fully works on smartphones, whether there’ll be an app associated with it or the in-house system operates the accessory. Xiaomi also hints that the digital camera-like lens may only be adaptable to their series of smartphones. For this reason, there’s a magnetic slot at the rear of their smartphones, so the lens can clasp on it and users can start using their devices like a digital camera. So far, there’s no news yet on the production date of the smart accessory.
