A few weeks ago, I was contacted by London based designer Kelly Angood about a unique pinhole camera called VIDDY that she'd developed following a successful Kickstarter campaign earlier in the year. As a photography lover, I was intrigued. I also happen to hold a special place in my heart for pinholes - my dad (a photographer) and I used to create makeshift models, and I even won third place in my 7th grade science fair for creating one. Kelly's model, though, is infinitely more asethetically pleasing than any I ever made (it's adorable), and it has another super rad feature - it's DIY, and comes as a cool make-your-own kit. She sent me one of my own and I'm officially in love. Each kit is screen printed and die-cut by hand, eco-friendly, easy to build, and fully functional. The VIDDY accepts both medium format and 35mm film, and is available in four lovely colors. Pretty great, right?
You can learn more in this super cute video:
The VIDDY is a must for any camera lover, you guys. It would also make a really wonderful holiday gift for any photo enthusiasts on your list. And best of all, one of you is going to get to win one for yourself!

I'd love a VIDDY because I love analog photography for its lack of predictability and the fact that it's one of the few surprises left -- waiting for the film to come back from the lab!

ReplyDeleteIt's just cool!

ReplyDeleteVIDDY is so unique! Can't believe I haven't heard of it before. I love how inventive people can get. I'd love a Viddy because I've never shot pinhole before and I always enjoy shooting film. I would love to try this baby out and share my experience with others! :)
