Ophir's entire body is a camera, and he has spent much of his life perfecting this tiny supernatural mutation into something that could be an impressive ability. His eyes are the equivalent of high-quality professional cameras, whereas the smaller lenses that he can manifest on his limbs and on the back of his neck are similar low-to-mid range consumer cameras.
Some of the features he has developed include:
- Full professional camera functionality, including the recording of videos with full sound, multi-shot, sport mode, etc.
- Camera flash and flashlight functionality.
- Zoom and adjustable focus with various internal lenses.
- Night vision functionality.
- 3 TB native storage which can be offloaded to computer or hard drive via USB ("plugged in" using his mouth).
- Internal photo review (though this disables his vision and hearing while in review mode), and external review via USB.
Ophir was born with a rather strange ability, even among the rare few in the world whose lineage gave them minor supernatural powers. Even as a baby, his light brown irises looked oddly mechanical... and his pupils would dilate and contract with quiet clicks. Neither of his parents understood where this odd mutation came from, but they loved him and raised him the same as his brothers and sister.
Even before he was able to speak, Ophir's memory was unmatched by his peers. It wasn't until he was in elementary school that his parents realized that he might be more than what meets the eye. Photos started showing up on the family computer that could've never been taken with a normal camera... with strange and unexpected angles at times when no technology had been around.
He was bitten by the photojournalism bug after joining the A/V club at his High School and starting to better understand camera technology and technique and how it could be used to show the world to those who need to see it. Once he understood the capabilities of mundane cameras... he knew exactly what he would need to do to his own underdeveloped "body cam".
