Overview
Shooting stills and video from a red, twin lens reflex style body is what this mini camera is made for. It has contrast detection autofocus, a wide angle lens and a small LCD alongside the optical viewfinder.
A retro look and simple controls make it a travel and vlog companion for beginners. The limitation is mixed data, since the flash field says no flash while another says automatic, and the body is not water resistant.
Who it's for
Beginners, teens and casual vloggers who want a pocketable camera that stores to an SD card. A smartphone link is listed. Anyone expecting Wi-Fi sharing or serious image quality should look elsewhere.
Pros and cons
- Retro twin lens reflex style
- Autofocus with contrast detection
- Records stills and video
- Memory card included per highlight
- Flash information contradicts itself
- Not water resistant
- Battery life is short
Performance notes
A small sensor and a wide angle lens suit bright scenes, and the small sensor limits quality in dim light. Contrast detection autofocus works from image contrast, so it can hunt in low light. Short battery life means a spare is useful on long days.
