Old Camera and Tripod Turned into an Awesome Desk Lamp

Old Camera and Tripod Turned into an Awesome Desk Lamp lamp mini

Kirsty over at kootoyoo transformed her old Cosina CT-2 into a neat desk lamp that emits light from inside the lens. The legs on the tripod can be adjusted, so it can be used as a floor lamp as well. It’d be awesome if she could make it so adjusting the aperture on the lens would change the brightness of the light. Kirsty is currently writing a tutorial that’ll teach you how to make your own — it’ll go on sale starting next week.

Camera – light – action… (via Craft via Make)

    If you use a GorillaPod you could make you’re own SnakeLight! :)

    Why put it on a shithouse tripod?

    I’d buy a 10 dollar lamp instead of wasting up a tripod.
