Why?

Some big ideas:

First — the concept:

The world’s first truly good, maximally small and compact digital full frame camera,,,

Very thoughtful design:

  1. First the front ,,, no superfluous elements.
  2. Second the top and top plate , once again ,,, no superfluous stuff. Also the very intelligent design, a dedicated video record button which is a good idea in red, on off switch, and the intelligent jog dial which surrounds the shutter.

Design critique
