Brothers Will and Matthew Burrad-Lucas were looking for a way to take photos of animals whilst on a trip to Africa, so they came up with the BeetleCam which safely lets them get close up shots of a range of animals including elephants and lions.
The BeetleCam is basically a combination of a Canon EOS 40D and a four wheel drive remote control buggy and they ended up with an all terrain camera that they could use to take photos close up to some dangerous animals.
You can find out more about the BeetleCam over at the Burnard-Lucas blog, and make sure you check out some of the amazing close up photos they managed to take with the BeetleCam.
