As I've already mentioned in the Intro forum, I'm looking for a realistic model of a camera as a gift for my sister, who is also getting a real camera. She likes Lego, so it's a coin toss as to which gift she'll like the most!
Anyway, I saw this and fell in love.
http://www.imaging-resource.com/news/2013/04/10/the-camera-bag-a-lifesize-lego-version-of-the-nikon-fIt's the Nikon F SLR model by Junya Suzuki which was submitted to Cuusoo a couple of years ago, but didn't get far despite it's obvious star quality. This would be absolutely ideal!
So, I thought I would scour the internet to see if Mr Suzuki had published the building instructions, then use a site like this one to get the parts. But, alas, no luck. If the instructions are available, they're well hidden. Also, Suzuki doesn't appear to maintain a personal website as I've found no contact details for him - if I could, I would ask if he would publish them and offer to pay for a copy.
Anyone got any ideas? Are the instructions out there? Is it possible to contact Suzuki? Is there another camera model as good as this one with instructions available?
Cheers

Not the Camera you want, but there's 3 to choose from with building instructions.
You can also buy one of them.
