ABC Camera is a reinterpretation of light traps, which were originally used in the 60s and 70s to make text more readable on TV screens. Similar in logic to ink traps, light traps compensated for low resolution: When the font appeared, the screen's blur filled in its holes so that each letter looked complete. Light traps were such an unintentionally bold visual feature, and so Dinamo scaled them up for ABC Camera, referring to them as 'holes' (as in Swiss Emmental). The font is available without the holes, bringing it back to full functionality and forming an interesting typeface in its own right. Overall, ABC Camera is a neutral, toned-down grotesque similar in style to Helvetica but with freer, less strictly defined proportions and a narrower body. Both the hole and Plain versions are available as a full family of five weights, including italics.
