The smartphone has made every user a photographer of all the various aspects of their daily life which has both its positives and negatives, so the conceptual 'FLANEUR' digital camera is designed to offer a decidedly different shutterbug experience.
The camera is designed with a minimalist aesthetic that can be worn around the body when traveling or heading to an event and features storage space for just 37 photos. This will encourage users to be more mindful when capturing a photo, while the interactive features of the unit such as buttons and a shifting flash provide drastically more tactile feedback than a touchscreen on a smartphone or tablet.
The conceptual 'FLANEUR' digital camera is the design work of Henry Smallbone and draws inspiration from the French term it shares a name with to encourage a slower approach to photography.
