You could install Termux on your cell phone to control the camera so you wouldn't need to carry around a laptop.

HELLO SIR WHERE TO BUY YOUR DIGITAL FILM CARTRIDGE.

HELLO WHERE TO GET THIS.??? 🙄🙄🙄

(つ❁´◡`❁)つ AHAHAHAH... SO NICE I LIVE AGAIN.

Please sell it!!!

Because of the sensor size, is the crop factor from the viewfinder and the recording the same?

Amazing work! I've seen all your videos! When will you upload the super 8 video tutorial?

Will it work on a zorki 4?

I think I'm missing a step. I built this but the raspi camera only produces a blurry circle. You said something about modifying the camera module in the last video but what exactly did you do?

So how many fps does the shutter make, and how many does the sensor take? Just curious, this is fascinating

Cool. 🐊

Hi, great video! I've noticed that you've removed bracket from inner body that align film. Is that so? Also did you removed shutter from the camera as it looks like there is no frame synchronisation mechanism

Memories

Please, 2 years of begging for a tutorial video! lol

Those year when everyone has Nokia 5110 I was the only one with Nokia 5210 the rugged one with easy to change Splash Proof and Dust Proof case in Orange, Army Green, Baby Blue, Black or White

The lens quality is much better.

Can anyone explain what the point of all this is when it gives video quality worse than a smartphone?

0:50 Yeah early MP3 players had very limited storage. Now you can have MP3 payers the size of a smart watch with hundreds of GBs of storage. 3:07 I remember movies that had scenes like that, one movie in particular where they showed a CD the size of a coin. One format that I wish was commercially successful is the Dataplay players and discs. Those discs come the closest to the size of a coin. 5:55 I don't think this mini player is pointless because it is something I've wanted for a long time. I have a Panasonic SL-J900 (plays audio & MP3 CDs) and I wish there was a modern mini version of it, or even a standard size modern version of it. 7:19 Completely agree with you. It sucks to have you music enjoyment interrupted by others things going on with your smartphone. 7:26 That area is beautiful. I would love a place like that around here to relax and run around. I've been wanted something portable player like the Panasonic SL-J900 that has some additional features, like VCD, XVCD, SVCD, XSVCD, cDVD, DVD playback with mini HDMI out, as well as a touch screen + physical buttons that let's you view/interact with music, CD Text, CD+G, CD+EG, Photo, lyrics, mp3, mp4, ect...

Very clever

This isn’t pointless! You did a fantastic job! If it was on the market I’d buy it!

wow

8cm BRs were extremely rare. There was only one line of camcorders that ever used them by Hitachi, and only one of the three models ever made it outside of Japan. They very quickly moved onto a model that used a full 12cm burner via eSATA, then just gave up and went onwards to the HDD camcorder era. I absolutely ADORE this. Great work. I would love one of these myself! :)

ich wusste nicht dass es 8cm MP3 CD Player gab - obwohl ich ziemlich mittendrin war, mit Baujahr 1980 und einem passenden Interesse im Computerbereich.

12:35 did you mean usb C?

I would live something like this

Cutting that disk was a brilliant and bold idea.

Mec stp fais nous un tuto sur le super 8 numerique

Please make the digital film camera tutorial ❤

Does that mean it would be capable of playing DVD-Audio, Blu-Ray Audio natively ? Possibly even able to read (& decode) DSD off an SACD? It's impossible to find a portable high res optical player, but I'd buy one today...

Moist

Makes me wonder if the enclosure could be modified to be able to play regular sized discs as well, much like the Sony D-88. I haven't really been able to find a proper "personal CD player", and this looks like a potential candidate to be a pocket rocket

I had this exact idea a few years ago as a novelty but I figured mini DVDs would be better since I couldn't figure out whether mini blu rays even existed since the 8cm format mostly became a thing that only existed for camcorders and by the time blu ray was out everything was moving to sd cards, and I also wasn't quite sure how to go about modifying the drives, very cool to see you making such a thing a reality!

Congrats, you just developed the modern interpretation of miniature optical disc playback. I can genuinely see something like this being a great offline solution for audio, especially with those into making their own mixtape-like discs.

I have a couple Philips ESP411's and a 431 that is capable of MP3 CD playback. I love them, I have close to a hundred Japanese CD singles from the late 80's to 90's that are 8cm in size. I got my players during a time where the prices were fair. Now it's hard to find one under $150 because not many people owned them or simply threw them away when they didn't need them anymore. It's pretty awesome to see one that is DIY!

THIS IS F@K#G AMAZING!!!

Can it be expanded to add the brains of the player to the full sized external disc unit? Kinda like a backpack or a clip that goes below the unit so it can play full sized discs

5:55 - "if your first thought was, 'this is completely pointless'" WHAT. My first thought was that I had to clean up the drink I just spat-out when you said "I built" instead of "I bought" at 4:44. YOU DID WHAT

This is beautiful. Your work is amazing.

Pointless? No its really cool!

If this used disc caddies that would be crazy. Regardless, I love it!

Amazing work. I wish they would have just continued minidisc-based media/players. Actually you named the project minidisc which is a bit misleading.

Most fascinating.

Pretty cool idea. It could have never happened back in the days. Blu ray drives circa 2006-2009 would have made it cost at least 200€ so at that price they could either put in small hdd like ipods or even an array of let's say 4 SD cards, 2-4GB each. DVD player would have made a lot of sense at some point back then and there were some around.

I love the minidisc format because the disc is inside a caddy which makes is much more secure and convenient to carry and use

That’s not Blu-ray, that’s cd, there’s a big difference, a 8cm cd holds 200mb vs an 8cm blu ray holding 7.5gb, or 7500mb Edit: I did not watch that far, and apparently he did use blu-ray… excuse me while i have an existential crisis.

Not pointless at all. Imagine this thing built into modern laptops or projectors.

I would love to have one when I can finally time travel

So it can read and write full 12cm BDs when fully opened or is there not enough space for the laser head to travel ? Because if it could, it would be the coolest external bd drive ever. Also it could have a setting to backup everything contained on the disk automatically onto the microsd without the use of computer (i knows its not ideal when the microsd is used for the OS ) ... that could surely find its use :D Also I used to have an mp3 discman :D 700MB of mp3s is quite a lot . the main problem is any scratch = half a song gone when on a wav cd it wouldve been 1-2 second skip :D :D It is gonna be even worse with a BD if you also play mp3s :D

It would be cool if you supported SACD format audio. 8gb is a lot more than an album at cd quality, but SACD is like 23 minutes per gigabyte (according to wikipedia), so you could store like 3 hours. That fits a lot better with the analog workflow of swapping albums, and would give you an actual reason to have 8gb discs.

A 512gb sdxc can be had for about $35 so this is of limited utility. But I appreciate the skill and time that went into making this.
