Inside the Lego Camera

Still crazy after all these years

3 versions of the Lego camera (35mm panorama, medium format, and 35mm) along with a framed photo taken with the 35mm camera

My Lego camera went viral 16 years ago when I posted some low-quality photos in a blog post showing how the medium format pinhole camera worked. If I had known how much attention my weekend project would generate (thanks to BoingBoing, Engadget, Digg, Metafilter, Make and others) I would have taken more time with my original post and the 35mm version follow-up.
