"O" game button triggers shutter

Very little parallax error

Screen in B&W mode (brightness turned all the way down) conserves power but also lets people see how they're framed.

The OLPC XO-1 still / video camera only faces in the same direction as the screen. When the camera and screen are turned to face the camera subject, you can press the "O" game button to take a picture. Because it's hard to frame up the shot without a viewfinder, I made one out of seven standard LEGO bricks that slips into the USB port.
