By using LightWave running on an iMac (which crashed all the time :-) I tried to model and texture this DV cam for my first project while studying at National College. I tried modelling the whole camera body in one block and carve the curves out of it but it didn't work when I mapped the images on, so I went closer to reality and tried modelling each and every part of the camera except the internal pieces :-)
It worked just fine. I made a hole through the lens in case I needed to animate something like the whole process of capturing an image by camera to CCD chip and the electronics on the camera.
