Riassunto

Why waste a thousand words?

Photos tell stories. And the more you can do with your digital camera, the better the story you can tell. So build a remote control and sneak up on that picture that keeps eluding you. Create an adapter that lets you use SLR-type lenses on your point-and-shoot. Play with lens magnification or create a pinhole lens. Beef up flash memory. And that's just where the tale begins. The ending is up to you.

Hack any digital camera

Illustrated step-by-step directions for more than 20 hacks, including:

• Building triggers
• Accessing raw sensor data
• Making accessory lens adapters
• Eliminating the infrared blocking filter
• Extending lenses
• Making reverse macro adapters
• Building a monopod
• Creating bicycle and car mounts
• Hacking microdrives from other devices
