Take away all the various bells and whistles of a traditional digital camera and you'll get the Croz DIY Small Digital Camera. Available for purchase from the MoMA Store, the camera is designed with the ability for the lenses to be interchanged to enable wide-angle and fisheye capturing capabilities. The camera features just two buttons that work as a the shutter button and another for cycling through the various photo effects that are possible.
The Croz DIY Small Digital Camera operates on two AAA batteries and stores photos onto an SD card. The compact camera features no display for viewing the photos afterwards, which helps to put the focus more on enjoying the experience rather than just trying to document it.
