The Lego ZH1 camera is a fully functional 35-mm film camera built exclusively of Lego pieces, showcasing both creativity and engineering ingenuity in design.
I initially tried using metallic parts to make it more realistic, but they easily tore off. My focus was on functionality–if a feature didn't add any useful function, I wouldn't include it just for aesthetics.
The designer wanted to keep the build affordable, prioritizing piece count to submit his project to Lego Ideas, where fan votes could lead to actual production.
Designing the Lego camera was a challenging endeavor; each function took weeks to perfect, emphasizing a meticulous approach to creating a working device from toys.
