I really like this camera
on October 7, 2025
Posted by: David M.
I really like this camera — the look and feel are spot-on, and it works great right out of the box. It gives that authentic Super-8 retro vibe with modern digital convenience. The footage has that nice grain and warmth that makes everything feel cinematic.
The only thing I’d add is maybe a stabilizer or gimbal option — handheld shots can get a bit shaky, especially when moving around. Otherwise, it’s a fun, creative little camera that nails the nostalgia perfectly.
5/5 for style and simplicity.

Testing the CS-8
on October 7, 2025
Posted by: Ronis V.
I tested this camera and I think it is very good value for money. I have yet to use it on a project but I plan to do so. I do own one of the best Super8 cameras the Braun Nizo Pro but I can hardly afford to use it. 3 Rolls of Super8 with development and digital transfer i. e. 9 minutes equals the cost of this camera. I hope one day you will produce a Pro version with 4 K.

Good quality, been looking for a easy video camera but there was no interesting ones in this price range and this is definitely the coolest and most interesting. The options being dials makes it easy to change res and filter quickly, can plug into ipad or pc to transfer photos. I’m very bored of editing videos on pc so I love how it’s prefiltered and set to whatever resolution in the camera itself. The trigger to record makes it so easy to only record exactly what you want so I don’t need to trim clips if I don’t want to I can just quickly transfer the videos to my ipad and stick them imovie to compile them into a video. Love the zoom too, when I recorded on iphone I manually would do slow zooms via editing since I like how well the movement of a zoom transitions to another zooming clip, so being able to d do it directly on the camera with the buttons makes it much more fun. Only issue I have is there’s a black smudge on the preview screen but it looks like piece of plastic that could be removed if I took apart the camera but it doesn’t affect the experience. Makes making little videos fun again, just like how the campsnap og and pro have done for photos.

Exactly what I hoped for!
on October 7, 2025

Great camera at a great price! Looks, feels, and shoots like a super 8 camera but without the hassle of developing the film and the different aspect ratios and filters takes it to a whole new level. The only thing missing is a lens cap to protect the lens.

Love it! The video quality
on October 7, 2025
Posted by: Allyson S.
Love it! The video quality is still a touch too crisp to really be vintage, but I love the option of multiple filters to help give it the right vibe. Bought to use for my wedding but can’t wait to use it for vacations, holidays, etc!
