| Misc
Christmas is not that far away which means the task of hunting for perfect gifts is also approaching. To get your grey cells thinking more creatively about the gifts you buy, we've put together a list of 16 quirky presents that are perfect for photographers. We've picked products that range in price and style so hopefully, there's something for everyone. Don't forget you'll need to wrap your gifts, too and what's more fitting for a photography fan than gift wrap that's camera themed?
Lichfield Camera Lamp
Camera's aren't just for the studio as this Lichfield camera lamp has a design that many photography fans will love. Evoking the swinging sixties with its old-fashioned mechanism and oversize flash that houses the light bulb, this lamp is the perfect accessory for the corner of a room that needs a little vintage style.
Lens Bracelet
If your budget doesn't stretch to a lamp, a novelty bracelet featuring lens information may be more in your price range. A variety of bracelets are available, including Nikkor lens detail, aperture information or focal lengths. They're only priced at £4.50 so could be a good stocking filter.

'Trust Me I'm A Photographer' Socks
Socks are a staple of the Christmas gift list but why settle for strips or indeed festive themes when you can buy a pair adorned with photography puns? These 'Trust me, I'm a photographer' socks are reasonably priced and should crack at least a small smile on your photography fan's face.

Personalised Photography Coaster
If you've already purchased an amusing photography themed mug in the past, how about you gift your loved one a personalised 'World's best photographer' coaster to sit it on. It might make a perfect stocking filler on even a secret Santa gift for work.
Camera Memory Box
What better way to store photographs, gig tickets, napkins from favourite restaurants and more keepsakes than in a camera-themed memory box. Of course, the photographer in your life doesn't have to use it for this purpose as it could also be home to small photography accessories or even biscuits if you'd like.
Retro Camera Design Lunchbox
A camera themed lunchbox is the perfect tin for photographers to carry sandwiches in. It's dishwasher safe and could also be used as a general storage tin if you didn't fancy packing your lunch in it.
Vintage Camera Photo Album
You can almost smell the old pebbly leather on Galison's trompe l'oeil Vintage Camera portable photo album. This camera recalls the days when snapshots were glossy black and white square photos rather than something that's stored on your mobile phone. It's a classy little photo album that should charm photography fans.

Table Lamp On A Tripod
A combination of modern chic, urban industrial and retro all come together in this quirky table lamp. Well suited to many rooms and types of decor, this lamp should be a winner with many photography fans thanks to the homage it pays to photography and film lighting equipment.
Photography Sign
This wooden plaque featuring the words: 'Life Is Like Photography We Use The Negatives To Develop' may find a home in a photographer's studio, on the back of a bathroom door or anywhere else in the home in fact.
Vintage Camera Journal
They say a picture is worth a thousand words - be sure to write all of them down in this stylish journal, decorated with photos of beautiful vintage cameras. With 160 lined pages for notes, lists, and ideas, this notebook is versatile as well as eye-catching. Features include a flexible matte cover, elastic closure, and ribbon marker.

'Flash Photography' Canvas Bag
Another shopper perfect for groceries but this one's got a slightly different pun on it. It's cream in colour and features a small camera design along with the words: 'I've been known to flash people'.

A beautiful handcrafted natural slate hanging sign, it is 4mm thick and hung with jute rope. The message 'warning dodging and burning' is laser etched onto the slate. The sign can also be used both indoors and outside.

Collectable Camera & Tripod
This is definitely eye-catching and rather unique. It's probably a gift you can purchase with a guarantee that the photographer you're buying for probably won't own one.
