The photos taken by the Not One Less Camera wouldn't have as visually cohesive a look as they would if you used the timed shutter and tripod technique. Having said that, there is a definite appeal to the way that this [point-and-shoot](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modular-camera) functions that is great for amusement and documentary purposes.

The [digital camera](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/manual-holo) integrates the usual forward-facing lens along with a tiny rear-facing one. When the user goes to capture any scene at all, his own pose at the time of pressing the button will show up in a frame in the bottom corner of the picture. This feature of Ji Lin's Not One Less Camera applies a photographic signature to each snapshot and affords the opportunity to have fun on both sides of the device.
