To start off, I’d like to share a personal industrial design project from a while ago: a concept of what a semi-pro camera system for smartphones might look like (www.behance.net)

Intended mainly as a thought experiment — I tried to come up with a seamless and easy to use system with various accessories, like lenses, filters and blinds, that wouldn’t feel clunky.

Sony and Olympus have had interchangeable lens systems that attach to smartphones.

Look up Olympus Air.

Yeah, and arguably those systems were clunky to use, barely had any quality improvements over the native cameras, awkward to attach/detach and never really caught on.

This in part is why I made the project — it’s a thought experiment on how to make such a product more seamless and user-friendly. So I guess sorry if it came across as presenting a completely new idea, it wasn’t intended as such. It’s an attempt to revise an unsuccessful idea considering more modern solutions.
