As professional photographers, we're pretty picky about cameras — so when we say the CS-8 blew us away, we mean it! 🎥✨
This little gem is pure magic. The no-screen concept sounds wild at first, but that's exactly what makes it so special. It forces you to stay present and actually experience the moment instead of immediately reviewing every shot. Our clients are absolutely obsessed with it — and honestly? So are we.
The film-inspired filters (especially ANA mode!) give footage that gorgeous, textured 8mm feel that
we spend hours trying to recreate in post. The fact that it does it in-camera is kind of unbelievable.

The aspect ratio options mean it's just as useful for cinematic widescreen as it is for Reels-ready vertical content.
We even created a reel using the CS-8 — check it out here: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DVe25q3lOH4/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==
If you're a photographer, filmmaker, content creator, or just someone who wants to capture life without being glued to a screen — the CS-8 is a must-have. We can't keep our clients off of it! 📽️🤍

Fun to play around with for that nostalgic vibe

I love it and the nostalgic feel and vibe
I just wish the SD card was accessible with a slot instead of having to take out the screws

And the audio was more balanced when using external plug and play condenser shotgun mics
I have tried several mics that work great on other cameras but sound horrendous with this
And a few that do help the audio but have their own balancing settings and boost and gain

Very fun - the handle isn’t the best feature. But it’s easy to use.

Love the ease of the CS-8. I shoot vintage original Super 8 video, the CS-8 build feels very comparable to use but much easier an affordable, no film developing. Love that you just plug in an instantly download. The sound is not great quality even when zooming in/out. You hear every click and movement yet distance sound is not picked up. Love the camera but the microphone could be improved.
