Translucent Camera Sculptures

The Crystal Clear Canon 7D Replica is Unbelievably Hand Carved

— August 27, 2012 — Tech
Camera accessories manufacturer Fotodiox has started producing a Crystal Clear Canon 7D Replica that is now available to purchase. This camera looks so real and functional that it’s hard to believe it was handmade.

These camera replicas are not at all functional at this time, but they are the perfect item for any camera collector out there. Fotodiox claims that these Canon 7D cameras are 100% handcrafted, which seems almost impossible due to the extreme detailing of the camera body and lens. The carvings on this replica are impeccable and the camera has actually been scaled down to 2/3rds of the original 7D size.

Fotodiox is an Illinois-based camera accessories company that makes an assortment of camera equipment ranging from lenses to studio lighting.
