As an owner of plastic film toycameras I am maybe not one to judge here. A lot of film photographers shun those aswell. I think Camp Snap just took the business model and uses it on digital. Unfortunately the insides of the camera are nothing special. And I don't mean "special" in good. It's nothing like old digicams. It has a cheap phone lens you can buy off of AliExpress for a few Dollars. No CCD. They know how to do business. But even at 20$ this camera would be almost overpriced. It's acutal price tag really is shocking. But we are in a free market and they seem to find buyers ;)
So I don’t actually disagree with you… from my research the camera part is actually a CCTV sensor / lens - and a cheap one at that. However I still like the concept, it’s hard to explain, and I actually like the processing - god help me. The great battery life and high storage image count helps
@@HamerReviews Ok, I thought I misheard you saying "this is not a CCD" when you said, it's a CCTV. I didn't do research myself, that's just what I learned from another RUclips video on that ;) But maybe I misremembered about CCTV. I totally get being hyped about this. And they definitely found a gap in the market for that. Just as long as no competitor is out there they gonna keep their price that high. At least analog toycameras are kind of mainstream now and you can get them for 20$ and don't have to go for Kodak's prices.
Just ordered mine! I actually can't wait to use it!
Good camera to get people into using a viewfinder, seeing a shot properly and not relying on a low res screen!
