If you were to rank your childhood toys in a top ten list of weapons, the slingshot would undoubtedly be number one. With its strong destructive power and simple construction, it was so popular among boys that many owned several, and quite a few girls also took pride in owning a beautiful and sturdy slingshot. Korean designers Sung Young Um and Jung Eun are perhaps also fans of the slingshot, which is why they introduced the Sling Shot camera shaped like a slingshot.

This is a quirky yet fun design. The Sling Shot is normally a small, portable square stick, but when unfolded, it resembles a slingshot. Its working principle is also consistent with that of a slingshot: aim at the target, pull back the rubber band, and when the target is confused and bewildered, release the rubber band to easily capture the most genuine and interesting moments of others.
