    Fun Camera, Bummer of an Experience

    Super bummed to find out all this time later that very shortly after I placed a pre-order for mine last year, they then released a version with a cold shoe mount and an external mic jack. Seems like something that would have made sense to include from the beginning, and being so soon after those of us that pre-ordered feels a bit shady. I was already a bit frustrated that the lens cover was something I had to purchase separately(and only comes in the bundle). Really like the intention of the camera but these two things have left a bad taste in my mouth regarding any potential future purchases with this company.

    Good camera unique product

    I bought this in January and had a bit of a learning curve. The camera is pretty straightforward and the filters are good, but the battery life can be poor and the standard memory only lasts for 30 minutes, although that can be changed. Overall great product with some particulars to get used to.

    Excellent

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It’s a great camera with a smooth easy interface. The video quality is good yet it retains the vintage feel you’re going for when considering this purchase in the first place. Only minor complaint so far is the feel of the trigger🫠. I wish it could be a bit more satisfying…

    Sad but loved the camera.

    It’s strange getting this mail from you just now. I did enjoyed the camera for a week or so. Yesterday they broke my car and they stole the camera and a drone I had in a bag. To be honest I am really heartbroken cause I really fancy your camera filming my daughter six months old and a project on a beach also. I will order one new again in the next days.

    Overhyped but still fun

    Quite a fun little camera and definitely feels very nostalgic. However, after getting it, we realized that while everything/everyone I had seen talking about it claimed it was screen free, it is in fact not. When you look in the viewfinder, there is a little screen in there, you don’t actually look out through a viewfinder. I found that quite disappointing as it is touted as allowing you to “be more present.” But that’s just not the case when your eye is glued to a tiny little screen. I got it for my husband and he likes it anyway, even though he was also disappointed by the screen. It’s fun for making short little videos and we have just decided to aim at first and then take our eyes away and just hold it in place so we aren’t missing actual fun moments. At least with the old digital video cameras the screen was visible without getting your face right into it so you could actually watch what was happening. We also thought it would be a fun “screen free” camera for our kids to play with, but since they have to be totally in it, we haven’t encouraged that much yet. Also was a bit disappointed with the construction. It is all plastic. It would have been cool if the silver parts were metal. All that being said, we do actually like it, just feel it is misrepresented and a bit overpriced for the quality. Thankfully I got it on sale so I don’t feel as bad about it. I’m guessing they will end up lowering the price as the hype dies down and people realize what the product actually is.

    OBSESSED. OBSESSED. OBSESSED

    I debated this purchase for the longest time and finally pulled the trigger… and WOW. Best decision. It captured our life so perfectly and turned moments into something we’ll always look back on. If you’re on the fence—this is your sign. Do it!!!

    Great Buy!

    We bought this for our wedding, the wedding is this weekend but we have brought it to some family functions to test it out and it’s a hit! Everyone loves it, the quality and sound is great (even without the extra mic) and the upload is super easy! Definitely recommend!

    Love!

    Absolutely obsessed with this camera! I love that the screen-free feature prevents you from extra time staring at your phone, and that it really forces you to capture the moment while truly experiencing it. I bought this ahead of the birth of my first child, and I feel like I am going to be using a lot to capture those early memories of our growing family!
