Camp Snap 8 (CS-8) Review: Pretty But Preposterous

From a distance, the Camp Snap 8 video camera looks like a stylish throwback. However, the video quality might make your home videos bomb.

I remember #VHSc and used a #Camcorder with it before there was an upgrade to #Hi8 / #Digital8...

VHS-C: a lazy idea that's also perfect

This #Canon #MVX300 #miniDV #camcorder is quite something. It feels more modern than the old broken #JVC one we had, but that one had more features (like a builtin light!). Sadly it doesn't have a microphone input. It does however advertise to have "megapixels" 😄. Which is actually about 1.3MP haha. A 16MB SD card was included for photo's. It can even record a ten second clip in 320x240 to the SD card, or 160x120 even!

No clue why they would include that though.

It aims to bring back the magic of a home camcorder.

Recent acquisition: it’s a Canon EX1Hi from around 1991! This chonker of a #vintage #camcorder was (allegedly) the first interchangeable lens camcorder, but unfortunately my example isn’t working. The VTR works fine to playback tapes, but the camera mode is completely dead. The tape rolls, but records nothing. I don’t like my chances of successfully repairing it, but maybe someday I’ll give it a go.

I haven't used #facebook in about a decade as I've never cared for mindlessly scrolling through nonsense posted by people I haven't seen since I graduated, or in years otherwise.

The real life people I care about I contact directly.

I installed it for FB Marketplace seeking a cheap #camcorder.

It wants access to every aspect of my phone, and I swear I had to deny access to my contacts about 3 times, then get asked "are you sure?".

Yes, I'll never use FB again.
