Well... if the thing's broke beyond repair... why not.

Weird thing is I have the exact same Ansco camera... but sans flash.
Notice the shutter button is on the left... that's the only reason why I keep mine :)

Cute, I saw some lamps made out of vintage cameras somewhere recently, they weren't plastic though.

I have an Ansco that Diane made into a pinhole for me  ;D

I've mated three broken cameras into a combination of manual polaroids, a pinhole and a polaroid kodak vigilant.

All this month and all just to see if I could.

Great fun, if you have something broken, I recommend having a go. And using a lot of black silicon  ;)

Somehow, it makes me wonder how Frankenstein we can go...

I love stuff made from broken cameras. Made this clock earlier this year.
