I bought this camera: https://amzn.eu/d/hjKh8Y9

Then I used epoxy resin and Sugru to attach this as a lens mount: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/286269609316?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=ojGLg4L4S5i&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=MehmFQ2TTju&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

And attached this: https://amzn.eu/d/9qIzXRa

Surprisingly sturdy, if a little front heavy. But it’s the kind of camera that you have in your hand all the time and fire off at everything. Only print what you need, or what you give away to people. The rolls of paper cost buttons so it’s fiscally sound too.

This is really cool. You might have given me a new summer project.

Just remembered, I needed to file the aperture to a larger size on the lens mount. I just used a cylindrical metal file. Time and patience required.
