This iconic camera body emphasizes the 'event' of having one's picture taken, which is often lost on a society now used to a plethora of pocket sized digital cameras and the instant gratification and disposability of memories afforded by them.

This piece has recently been updated with more reliable weight activated switches as well addressing the nostalgia of standing before a camera by utilizing a Toshiba H30 HD camera, retro-fitted into a 1969 Polaroid Land Camera body, activated by utilizing a custom made remote control housing.
