Quad-Lens GIF Cameras : Moment 3D Camera

The conceptual Moment 3D Camera has been designed by Olga Orel as a modern piece of photography equipment that takes digital culture into account to support modern consumer preferences.

The camera is characterized by its compact construction that uses four 38mm lenses to capture scenes from four different angles. This enables the camera to create GIFs right on the device that are ready for sharing on social media and more. The camera is equipped with a large display on the rear that’s flanked by buttons for navigating the interface and making changes. The hardware identifies how photography equipment can be engineered to suit the preferences of digital natives.

Orel spoke further on the inspiration behind the conceptual Moment 3D Camera saying, “I discovered old cameras such as Nishika N8000 and Nimslo from the 1980s made by various companies with the same idea of stereography. They were quadrascopic (four lenses) cameras designed to produce four half-frame images from a click of the shutters. Lenticular prints could be made from the negatives. Unfortunately, the demand for these products was low due to people losing interest while waiting for the prints, which could take weeks and by some accounts, months to return to the consumer. You have to understand, these cameras were introduced BEFORE we knew anything about GIFs or JPEG files!”
