For this design I was inspired by the Samsung Galaxy point and shoot. I wanted to take that classic curve and apply it to a camera more along the lines of a compact DSLR. As with a lot of my designs I like to use a combination of smooth curving lines and sharper edges to create a dynamic form. I wanted to create something that was small enough to travel with, say, around Greece, hence the images depicted. However I wanted the used to still be able to capture high quality images, thus I implemented the zoom lens. For materials I used a combination of aluminum and hard plastics to create the body. Complete with a high quality glass lens and a leather strap for carrying. To model it I used blended surfaces, sweeps, and network surfaces, though I predominantly employed the use of blended surfaces to connect each face of the camera.
