I saw an 8x10 camera made out of a black plastic
attache case, sort of James Bond-ish looking. It even
had the shutter release wired up under the handle. You
could set down the case, point it at the subject, pull
up the shutter release, and take the picture... All
without looking like a camera geek. (Of course, that
takes away half the fun, but it was a cool camera!)
