I wish there was a “love” button rather than simply “like”! Your photos with the CS are fantastic.
And yes, very Hussian. Haha!
Next inexpensive photo toy I’m going to tempt you with is the Light Leak lens. (Google it)

ok, one legit criticism of the Camp Snap. Why is the vf a blurry bulbous blob? My $25 Reto Ultra Wide and Slim has a crystal clear vf in comparison.
Makes using it more challenging! What doesn’t kill you…

Nice triptych. I think the photos look pretty good after some editing and resizing. They are meant for social media posts and maybe 4x6 walmart prints.

According to this, from 8mp you can print up to 10x8

So I think 5x7 prints can look very nice. And if you make a triptych out of that to frame/hang, that will be plenty.
This is all before using the wizardry of uprezzing etc.

I already made me one of those some years back, by breaking the mount off an old Oly 50mm lens.
O course now I wish I never did that seeing I am looking at OM2-Ns...

I would say that the Camp Snap is the closest to a film camera feel out of any digital camera.
Because it is just as cr@ppily made as a cheapo single use film camera, and it looks and feels exactly like one.
ok, to be fair, it's not exactly cr@ppily made, it feels as it should given the design brief. And the colours available are fun. The lens on it is way better than on any disposable camera, and it does have AE based on variable ISO and shutter speeds. Aperture seems fixed at 2.8 (makes sense as there is no moving...Show more →
Yeah, I have some older digital pocket P&Ses (e.g. Casio stuff) and while I love the lo-fi output, it still feels like shooting digital. Camp Snap has that film experience of not really knowing what the photos look like.

Huss you should tape that CS logo and get a red dot on it.

I was thinking the same. The logo would probably wipe off with some solvent.
But genuine red dots probably cost more than the CS camera! Haha

A genuine red dot would come with a signed QC card and a spelling mistake.
I’ll buy a knock off for a nickel.

So, are you going to clear out the camera collection and buy a bag of Camp Snaps for digital and a second bag of Reto's for film?

Well, I already have a bag of both. But forgot to clear out the rest of the collection.

Genuine red Leica dot - $100 on ebay:
Ebay Leica dot
Or $20 from DAG.
$20 is still more than 50% of what I paid for the entire camera!

Just bought this new Leica off ebay. Only $500.
Looks legit to me.

What a great deal!
Did the seller list there was no fungus, no mold, no balsam separation?
