While most people simply use their smartphones as cameras, the Anvil Studio M24.004 camera aims to reintroduce dedicated photography tools thanks to an incredibly sleek design and host of key features. Designed as a concept piece, the M24.004 camera lays out its components in a way that is space-optimized. The lens is situated in a way that allows for the battery to sit behind it, while the printing paper, PCB and flatter components fit into the flat frame. The digital camera does lack a screen, but this helps keep down the size of the device, and it does include a rudimentary viewfinder.
Also featured in the M24.004 camera is an onboard printing system. While this is still a concept, it shows the capabilities a slim camera has and showcases how intelligent design can help remove bulk from daily objects.
