Formlabs White Paper

Guide: Creating Camera Lenses with Stereolithography

Why You Should Download

The idea for a fully 3D printed camera—a machine with many complex components—has been floating around Formlabs since we first experimented with creating 3D printed lenses.

Our applications engineer Amos Dudley took on the challenge and created the first fully 3D printed, interchangeable lens camera. All components of the camera were produced entirely on a Formlabs SLA 3D printer.

Throughout this white paper, you’ll learn about:

  • Designing the Lens, Balancing Distortion
  • 3D Printing Optics with a Formlabs 3D Printer
  • Addressing Challenges in Finishing
