Satisfaction of a film camera without paying for film. its a digital camera but doesn’t have a screen so you have to wait to upload pics to a computer to see your work. The right kind of gimmicky
Designed by a father so his kids could take photos on camping trips without being distracted by phones. View-finder only, perfectly imperfect resolution. Digital, eventually. Old school look, feel and sound. Everyone smiles when they use it.
This little camera is great. I think having a dedicated device for stuff is so much more fun than using your phone for everything. Plus you get cool pics that don't look like everyone else's iPhone pics that all use the same camera and decoding etc. And it's a conversation starter and feels like a fun toy to just carry around. Also it's only 70$ so a lot cheaper than a film point and shoot.
i've always wanted to tote around a camera with me with the intention of taking more pictures. for awhile that was my grandma's vintage kodak cameo, but then developing film became so much more expensive and i stopped. i didn't necessarily want a 2000s digital camera because having screens to look at in a camera makes me feel unecessarily judgy of myself? 😭 i found out about this by accident through an ad on reddit and i was really taken in by it having the uncomplicated energy of a film camera but the convenience/cost saving of digital cameras. i've had this for about 3 months and i love it. i actually remember to snap quick photos but i'm not staring at the screen contemplating whether or not my teeth look weird. it's sturdy too! my clumsy self has dropped it in my rocky backyard.
I work on a college campus where we have this statue of a rat with giant balls and it has become a regular phenomenon for students/people to offer their vapes to the ball rat. It is both so silly and so beautiful to me.
