Try this at your own risk...Had this idea 10 years ago, finally got around to it. Took a good couple of months too.Maybe I'll have to come back in another 10...

Just stumbled over this: they build a working camera in Blender and used to take photos in Blender. I have nothing to do with the creator of this video, just wanted to share, because wow. If you are even slightly interested in photography OR 3D artistry, this is a must watch.
