Easy 35 is the new 3D printed camera from Clint O’Connor that uses 35mm film and is smaller, faster to print, and simpler to make. Best of all, it is free to download and make!
The Easy 35 camera is open source and appeals both to photographers and to educators wanting to teach principles of photography to youths. Based on 35mm film, the Easy 35 can be printed in half the time of a Flyer 6×6 and needs just a pinhole to assemble (at a bare minimum). A rubber band secures the top and black tape is used as the shutter.
