CHUZHAO Vintage Mini Digital Camera, Portable TLR Style Retro Point and Shoot Compact Small Pocket 1080P FHD Video 12MP Autofocus Vlogging Camera with 16 GB Card for Beginners Teens Adults Black

This plastic TOY digital camera has strong vintage vibes and is worth the price. It's easy to use, and the top-down waist-level viewfinder makes it surprisingly fun to shoot. The JPG photos are square (perfect for Instagram) and the image quality is pretty much exactly what you want for a TOY camera. I've attached a few example photos. The limited dynamic range means that the sky will often get "blown out" to white, but that's part of the retro-digital charm. Autofocus and shutter speed - neither of which you have any control over - work well enough to (usually) produce non-blurry images.

I love this little camera! The images I get with this camera capture the feel of a moment, although they are not super high quality. I bought this camera because it looked fun and it lives up to the hype! It is very fun! Super tiny and easy to take in any bag with you. The images tend to be blown out if it’s too bright outside or very, very dark if the lighting is dim. But, with some editing I’ve gotten some great images.

Ok, lets start by saying this thing is a toy. It is tiny, like 1 inch square, by 2 1/2 inches tall. The top lcd screen is small but surprisingly easy to see. The photos are ok in brightly lite areas, and in doors. But not really good for dim lighting. The video is 1080p but not very good, the sound is also tinny. BUT there is a bit of a fun factor involved with this camera. Most people find it a curiosity and want to ask questions about it. Some people will let you take a picture of them just to see it on the tinny lcd. It uses a max 64 GB micro SD card for storage and comes with a 16 gb card. it has a built in battery and charges via usb-c, i am.not sure how many photos you can take or how long the battery will.last befpre it wont hold a charge. It is all plastic, but like I said a little fun to use. If you wanna blow 50$ on a fun toy, that takes ok picture and videos and is a conversation piece look into this camera.

OK, so this is by far the coolest camera I’ve ever purchased! I was a little hesitant because there were other bad reviews. People are saying it’s more like for fun and it’s a lot like a toy but I disagree. This camera is great for taking vintage pictures and videos. It’s so cute and the amount of people that are like oh my gosh I love your camera is that real and I’m like yes! And they think it’s so cool! But I also think it is so cool! And you can go back and look at photos which I love! I have never noticed anything with bad lighting. It takes great photos in the darker, lighting and outside! Super user-friendly , I haven’t even charged it yet because it holds charge for such a long period of time. And so far it’s been super durable, I’m actually pretty clumsy and I’ve dropped it a few times and nothing has messed up. Obviously you shouldn’t intentionally do that, but I’ve carried it with me while I traveled, and , it has stayed put together very well. Just like new highly recommend this kind of camera if you just want some thing, fun and small to carry around with you it also comes with a carrying strap which is great. I just put it around where my purses and I carry it with me that way. Not to mention that this thing is so freaking tiny that you could almost put this in your pocket and it would be a great fit! Now I’m unsure of how many photos and videos it holds. I take a lot of pictures with this thing so so far it hasn’t run out of storage I would say I’ve taken about 200.

What a fun little camera! I love that the photos are square format and can be taken in color or black and white. (The black and white leans more toward sepia, which I love!) The instructions are in English and it comes in really nice packaging. So there are two different methods of shooting video. (Also either color or black and white). The two ways to shoot video are 1. To shoot video WITH sound, you hold down the shutter button for as long as you want to record, then release it and click it again one time for recording to stop. 2. To shoot video WITHOUT sound, turn the crank on the side. As long as you continue turning the crank, it will continue to record. When you stop turning the crank, it will continue to record for 6 seconds and a countdown will appear on the screen. For all the reviewers saying “I wish it recorded longer than 6 seconds” DO YOUR RESEARCH PEOPLE!” It will record as long as you continue to turn the crank….the 6 second thing is only a countdown once you stop turning the crank. The photos and videos are super retro lo-fi. That’s the reason someone would want a camera like this. That’s literally the point. Pay no attention to the “quality is bad, blah blah blah”. It’s not an $800 dslr cam! Sheesh! You buy this for the vibe that the photos and videos give! Not to be able to blow up a poster size image for your wall! The silent cranked videos give Super 8 vibes that I LOVE. I can’t wait to print out some of the square photos I’ve taken with this camera. This camera is fun, interesting & unique. The auto focus is great and you can get some super close-up shots. Yes, it’s plastic (I have more expensive cameras that are ALSO plastic), but with real metal accents…all the silver accents you see on this camera are metal. I’m glad it’s rather light since I’m wearing it around my neck when I’m using it. I didn’t care for the strap as it says “the first camera for young people” printed on it. Like, really?? Any age person would find this camera fun and user friendly. I put a different strap on it. The four buttons do take some memorization of their function, but it doesn’t take long to get that down pat. The little shaded screen is crisp and clear. The popup thing around it makes it shaded so it’s still easy to see in outdoor daylight. I love the angle of photos since you’re shooting with the camera in an area between your waist and chest….it gives a more flattering image for photographing people. I’d buy this again and again, especially at this price point (was on sale for $33 when I got it). In less than a week, I’ve already gotten way more than $33 worth of fun out of it!

Really lovely camera, very old fashioned type, very sturdy gave as a Christmas gift the receiver loved it

Cracking little camera, no sound but I can cope with that. The quality of the images is good.

Me encantó, me encantó, me encantó!!!

いやあ、素晴らしいです。 知らないメーカーのトイカメラだと思ってちょっと心配していたら、ここまで出来が良いなんてびっくり。 レトロで可愛くて、ミニチュアなのにチープさがありません。 しかも写真もビデオもちゃんと撮れます。 思わず人に見せて話をしたくなるような出来で、大満足です。 良い点 ・何より可愛くて、見栄えがよくてチープさがない。 ・オートフォーカス機能があり、1080Pで写真、ビデオまで撮れる。 ・画質が良い。トイカメラとは思えない写りの良さ。 ・ビューファインダーLEDも鮮明で綺麗。 ビューファインダー画面を写真に撮って拡大するとさすがに荒く見えますが、3cm角のファインダーで見る分にはとても綺麗です。 ・操作性がシンプルで分かりやすい。 特に、ジョイスティックが飾りではなく、回すことで録画開始になるのも、ファインダー のカバーを開けて上から覗いてシャッターを押すのもマニア心をくすぐります。 （録画開始はボタン操作でもできます） ・メモリとして16GBのmicroSDカードが実装されていました。 ・USB-Cケーブルで充電も写真データの読み出しもできます。 なので、SDカードをいちいち抜き差ししなくてもPCに接続してデータの確認、保存ができます。 気がついた点 ・フォーカスが中心なので写したいものはできるだけ真ん中に。 ・手ブレ補正はないので、ビデオは動かさないように撮らないと、再生時画面酔いします（笑） 以前から二眼のミニチュアカメラが欲しくて、ローライフレックスのミニデジを探してました。 でも、中古でも６、７万円するし、画質も良くなさそうなのでためらってました。 それに比べてこのCHUZHAOのミニが8,000円弱で買えるなんて文句なし。 カメラ好きなら撮って良し、触ってもよし、飾って眺めてもよし。 持っておいて後悔しないと思います。

Fun little camera
