Build your own Rodak - a portable camera powered by your Raspberry Pi.
Bring a new perspective to your photography with your very own retro camera shooting from waist-level instead of eye-level. Thanks to the built-in ground, glass this is also a low-powered project that doesn't need a separate electronic screen.
Follow me on Twitter @alexellisuk and read my latest Raspberry Pi tutorials on my blog with loads of cool hacks and weekend projects.
