Print and Build Your Own Highly Detailed Paper Canon Cameras

[Abel]

From PetaPixel.com

Last year, Canon celebrated its 50th anniversary in manufacturing SLR cameras and released three super detailed paper craft cameras that you can print out and build yourself. These included the Canonflex, the AE-1, and the EOS 5D Mk II. Unless you have a good amount of time you can set aside for arts and crafts, this probably isn’t for you — each camera has dozens of pages of detailed instructions and a ton of tiny pieces that come together to form the final replica camera.

Okay, that's pretty cool. I may try this later. I have Xacto knife skills, but my gluing skills are a bit messy, we'll see how it works out.

Need to have a friend with an laser engraver/cutter.

if anybody does this, take photos of the finished product, its different to see the representation photos vs. what sombody actually does. not a big fan of canon but if it looks good, I may try it, i like models.

I wonder if there's anything out there like the 1D series...

I have one, but that looks like WAY to much work!

You know, print one out and make it, fill it with candy before you seal it, then give it as a white elephant gift at the TPF Xmas party.

Too cool!
