As if regular cameras weren't expensive enough, the Brikk Lux Nikon has upped the ante with a gold-plated design worth up to $30,000.
What's good about this design, however, is that the company Brikk donates part of the proceeds to certain charities to help those in need. While the idea of a gold camera is quite luxurious and seemingly unnecessary, the company targets certain people with a lot of money who can afford to give to those in need. One question to think about, however, for those thinking of buying this design is the weight. Cameras can be heavy at the best of times, so adding a touch of gold would not help the cause. However, it would look great as a collectors piece on the shelf. Photo Credits: designboom, brikk
