2 Jun
Summary
- New camera boasts a screenless design for a digital detox experience.
- Features include six built-in filters and an improved shutter button.
- Available for pre-order at $70 with potential future price increase.
The Camp Snap 2, a new screenless digital camera, appeals to younger consumers seeking an alternative to contemporary technology. This device, designed for summer camps and beyond, intentionally omits a screen to encourage a more focused experience.
The camera retains an 8MP sensor from its predecessor but features a 15% slimmer profile and four new transparent color options. Enhancements include a dedicated button for six built-in filters, eliminating the need for external software. The shutter button has been improved for better responsiveness and a distinct tactile click. A new 'Quick Draw' feature allows immediate photo capture upon waking the device.
Further additions include a standard 30.5mm filter thread for lens accessories and a tripod mount. For child-friendly use, new lock settings prevent accidental changes to filters or the memory card door. The Camp Snap 2 is currently available for pre-order at $70, a price described as introductory, suggesting a future price adjustment.
