I purchased the Camp Snap 2. For the price I expected better QA/QC. The on off switch is crooked and the instructions do not match the programing of which mode you are on. I like the idea and the photos taken are great. The ease of uploading the photo to computer or phone is ideal!
Camp Snap 2 camera arrived and worked great the first two days of having it. By the end of the second day, I was met with an ERR message that could only be cleared by removing the memory card and using an entirely new one. Since the swap, camera has worked well, though sometimes even when it's in the off position if it is jostled the "shutter" noise will go off from time to time.
Uploading directly through Photos on my MacBook Air has proved easiest versus going through the Finder and using CampSnap folder directly, though that's more of a preference and advice for others who may use a MacOS. We have enjoyed using the camera on a few family trips and being able to see the photos later that we snapped versus in the moment; it feels like it lets us be in the moment more.
I have been looking at moving from my phone to a dedicated camera for a while, to feel more connected to what I am photographing. This was meant to be a cheaper placeholder until I got a 'better' camera, but i think I will stick with it. It's light, easy to use and the photos remind me of how my old disposable camera photos used to look (in a good way).
Historically I love my CS products. This time; however, I got a glitchy model. Phantom shutter noises when the camera is totally off and not in use, constant need to update the date (why does it insist it’s January - is it time traveling?), and inconsistent shutter count.
Pics are good, as expected, but still likely to reach out to exchange this handset.
This camera has exceeded my expectations! I love how it allows my kids (ages 5, 6, 8) to capture things that are meaningful to them and to have free rein with taking photos. They don't have to rely on my phone! PLUS, it plugs straight into my phone - don't even need to have a computer! This has been the most fun thing for our family this summer. I love the nostalgia of a no-screen camera, but with the convenience of the photos ending up on my phone.
Bought the Camp Snap 2 for a vacation last week and it was amazing! Super easy to use and import the photos. Only taking a star off because I needed to buy a new SD card immediately because the one provided corrupted the data right out of the box. I would also suggest always using the flash unless you are in full bright sun. I had a few photos turn out pretty much fully dark even though it was bright out because I was in the shadow of a building.
