The Camera Lens Mug
Posted by Daoco in Gadgets, Great Ideas, Innovation, Unique Designs on August 2, 2010

Just a week ago, we walked into our local cafe, and our barista handed us our latte in a mug that looked just like a lens! She even topped it off with camera-shaped latte art and creamer in a film canister!
We just about died, but then we woke up instead.
Desperate for our dream to come true, we wished on shooting stars, wishbones, found pennies, fallen eyelashes…and sure enough, it worked!
Behold, the Camera Lens Mug, a mug that looks JUST LIKE a Canon 24-105mm lens!
It’s equipped with a lens-cap lid (omg), rubber-grip focus and zoom rings (o…m…g), and an auto-focus switch that actually switches (OMG)! It’s so realistic, you might have to use post-its just to remind yourself which is your mug and which is your lens!
