Honestly, this camera is amazing! I love the retro feel, look, and sound to the camera. I'm a videographer and will be using this camera for a lot of the behind the scenes and family content. Thank you Camp Snap team, I'm excited to purchase a camera from you guys as well!!!

love it so far and was so looking forward to this camera! I will admit I was scared for the quality, but trust me when I say that once it’s downloaded it looks so good while also fostering the nostalgic feel! I’m obsessed and cannot wait to continue using!

Great camera, and fun to use. Only downside is that you have to unscrew the area which houses the memory card to get the card out and put the card into a computer. The screws also are not easily taken removed. I would like to see future versions be able to easily access the memory card or plug the camera into a computer to off load the media.

on October 6, 2025

This is a fun little camera that’s a great tag along on weekend adventures or gatherings to capture candid moments. The analog buttons as well as the battery and storage meters are quirky and clever. The variety of shooting modes and aspect ratios are very smart as well. I really like the trigger as the record button, maybe a lock to either hold down or inhibit recording would be useful though.
The biggest and most egregious problem with this hip device is how the f@&! do I get the videos off it?!? I’ve been a content creator for over 20 years and have worked with all manner of formats and camera gear and I can’t think of anything that has given me such a hassle. Where the hell is the SD card? Under a plate secured by 2 tiny screws? Ridiculous. I should not need a tool to swap a card. Also, none of my devices have a USB-C port so I can’t even import directly from the camera.

I want to like this. It is a home run aesthetically, but as a practical video camera it handles like a prototype. Add a proper door for the SD card slot, maybe a hot-shoe on the top for an external mic or light and a nice carry bag and you’ll have a great gadget.

Loving this camera so far. The vintage style brings a lot of interest and nostalgia. My kids can record moments around the house and have fun just creating without getting distracted by replays or messages.

Video footage is wonderful, easy to operate/use, the print on the camera is SO VERY SMALL- wish it was easier to see. Also the square on the top would be amazing to mount a light, then it could be used in low light and you could brand or partner with a LED lighting.

Amazing beautiful camera, I love the retro finish, the simplicity, no complication to use it, it do the job perfectly, but more important, the feeling to have a "super 8" camera again in my hand, It is just powerful, ". . . an elegant camera for a more civilized age"
