Cutest camera in the world!
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.

Good quality easy to use digital camera.
Great camera. Easy to use. Clear and sharp screen. Can take pictures in colour and B&W. Can also be used for videos. Picture is good. Sound isn't great. Comes with memory card and carry strap. Image quality is good. It can handle bright sunny scenes well. Its also performs well with poor lighting. I would recomend the camera for still shoots. Battery life is good. Charges up with a standard phone charger. A lead is supplied for charging.

Very nice toy camera.
Very nice toy camera. Fun to use. The autofocus works well although you can't focus then recompose since it will automatically refocus on the center subject. The viewfinder display is good in sufficient light, and only displays the battery status, not the settings (the pictures in the listing are misleading). The resulting 12mp stills and 1080p videos are *extremely* compressed, and they can lose a lot of sharpness depending on the subject matter. The video function records audio. The color images on mine are oversaturated and noisy. Some color shots can be saved with post processing. It doesn't shoot very well in low light. I prefer shooting with the "sepia" mode, which they call black & white. The photos look decent on a computer screen at or under 50% of original size. No ability to set date & time, mine's date was set at 8/30/24. Overall I'm happy with it and would recommend it to anyone that's into toy cameras. Definitely not a serious camera but it's capable of capturing some interesting shots, and good at close-up shots. I paid $49.99 but wouldn't pay much more than that. I wish the manufacturer would provide more detailed specs for the camera geeks among us (focal length, aperture, shutter speed, and ISO). Unfortunately the exif/metadata is stripped from the files and settings don't show on the display. Files can be transferred to a computer using the provided USB-C cable.

Great little camera
Super cool. Great little camera. It’s a fun item. Quality of pictures is good. This is more of a show off fun little camera to carry for special events. Great conversation piece. Looks awesome to leave out as decoration while not using it.

Interesting camera, its small size is both benefit and hindrance
Interesting camera, its small size is both benefit and hindrance, its small size means it fits in many pockets but its small size also makes holding it steady while hitting the shutter release difficult. A Full Size version with a 1” or Micro 4/3 Sensor or even an APS-C would be nice, maybe threaded lens for Filters. More of a Novelty , likely would get better results from an action cam. For the price its not bad just know you will likely get better photos from your phone.

The most fun I’ve had with a camera in a long time!!
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!

it is a toy camera...and a good one
this is a nice little camera...you arent going to make huge prints with the images...but it works very well in good light...noisy in low light situations though...it is just fun...but what i like the most about it is it is able to focus very close...I think the instructions say 5mm...if you want a camera to have fun with I would give this a try...I have seen web pages have this for sale for up to 100 USD...dont do that....but for 30 dollars and under...go for it

Lindíssima e funcional
Para quem curte fotografia, é uma câmera muito linda e com imagem surpreendente para o tamanho do sensor. A marca se propõe a ser a "primeira câmera" para crianças e jovens, acredito que de fato seja uma opção bacana para pais que queiram incentivar seus filhos na fotografia.

5/5 Stars - A tiny, retro gem for photography lovers!
"I absolutely love this Chuzhao camera! Even though it’s marketed as a 'toy,' I love using it. The design is a wonderful throwback and reminds me so much of the Rollei TLR cameras I used when I first started out in photography. Of course, the image quality isn't meant to compete with a professional setup, but the photos have a unique charm, look great, and actually print very well. For the price, it’s a fantastic little camera and honestly just great fun to carry around. Highly recommended for anyone who misses that vintage feel!"

Best little camera ever!
This is the best little camera ever! Changes the way I shoot photos. Picture quality is actually quite good “for a toy”, but not a toy.
