The conceptual 'iCamera' has been designed by Cha Hee Lim as an Apple-branded photography solution that would work to provide avid shutterbugs with a connected way to capture their favorite moments. The camera is focused on transforming the user experience when it comes to photography by eliminating the need for SD cards in favor of WiFi and Bluetooth that can be used for uploading images directly to iCloud.
