Photo printing has once again become a popular art form as consumers seek out physical keepsakes in addition to sharing their favorite memories on social media, which is seeing new concepts like the Leica Photo Printer be designed.
Created by Deokhee Jeong, the printer works by being attached onto your smartphone and offering users a way to print photos immediately after being captured. The unit also offers additional power to your smartphone to act as a power bank when out in the field taking photos to prevent a dead device from bringing your activities to a halt.
The conceptual Leica Photo Printer can be used in both portrait and landscape modes, and transforms your smartphone into a traditional point-and-shoot for a more intuitive way to snap photos.
