Kleptograph

Created by: splendiction

Pronunciation: KLEP to graf

Sentence: Kleptographing with a cell phone camera is very difficult, with the delay after pressing the shutter, the person will move and you'll end up with a fuzzy image of the wrong body part. To get a good frame of the body part you want, use an expensive digital camera, preferrably one with an image stabilizer. Practise! practise! will allow for stealth in sneaking your kleptographs.

Etymology: kleptograph n. or v. is from the words kleptomania (urge to take) and photograph.
