The La Sardina and flash DIY edition is an camera that lets you design the facade yourself. La Sardina has created several camera editions that are all [35mm wide](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lomography-lomo-mca), do not require batteries and are [simple to use](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/camera-1).

The design for these cameras was inspired by a sardine can, and this new edition comes in an [entirely white facade](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/manual-holo). Decorating the camera is easy because it comes with a mini-screwdriver that lets your detach the face of the camera. This reveals a transparent screen where pictures and fabrics can be inserted into.

Whether you cover the front of the camera with glitter, spray-paint, crayon or marker, you can individualize and personalize your camera however you like.
