These were neat, just 10 years too early
A vertical oriented rugged video/photo hybrid that I can just clip on?

They sold like shit unfortunately, quickly discontinued, no one could catch up to GoPro for that kind of market, and now they go for the hipster premium tax

How is that Sony action cam?

i've always see the 1080 HD model of Facebook Marketplace

I wish I'd tried one of these. I'm sure it was stupid as hell, but look at it. It's like a sad quadraplegic, needs a bit of pitty.

It was a revolutionary idea that was ahead of its time. It put the camera first, and the phone second. The commoners of the world (You) simply lack the brain cells to comprehend its brilliance.

>>4474880
It was a solution to a problem that didn't exist catered to low IQ consumers to sell more spare parts in a different marketing package.

>>4474890
Good IQ and ergonomics on a smartphone without resorting to software gimmicks and ai bullshit was a problem then, and is a problem now.

Sony's shortcomings were twofold:
- reaching into the parts bin instead of iterating on the rx100 lens to develop a compact, collapsible design
- catering to apple fags and paying the price with apples gate keeping, when they should have aimed for the technically and intellectually superior android user first, who was capable of appreciating the products technological innovation.

The future holds a different solution (pixel shift a small sensor), but Sony's solution, despite its shortcoming, solved a real problem, and was ahead of its time.

>>4474901
The solution is to buy a camera instead of a phone. Making a camera and taking away the LCD screen doesn't suddenly make it an innovative revolutionary brilliant invention. And it was far from ergonomic.

>>4474903
>just buy a camera
The average NPC out there wasn't doing that anymore. Sony was trying to save the industry.

>Making a camera and taking away the LCD
You left out step 3, the trickiest step. Replace LCD with a fag phone and closed APIs. That was innovative, because no one else was doing it.

ok snapiness

>>4473622
I have one, they are quite ok but they are almost a decade old now. It is one of the few actioncams that has optical stability instead of digital which means that in lower light there isn't that weird jitter effect you have with digital stabilization. This type of model with a 1-inch sensor would have been a great successor.

I got this, and YouTube makes it seem cool, but the cocksucker keeps automatically rewinding rolls after like 4 shots and I don't understand why.

Ricoh RDC-300
It has really nice character for one of these ancient digital cameras and works surprisingly well in low light. My only wish is that it had a bit of zoom on it. It's also tiny, and looks enough not like a camera that no one really pays attention to you.

Second place goes to my converted CCTV camera. It's very unwieldy to carry around, but there are a lot of fun c-mount lenses around for cheap. I use it as a webcam and soldering microscope occasionally.

Kodak ZI8.

>>4483068
Man, that takes me back. Remember when Flip cameras were all the rage for what, two or three years there, before “smartphones” really took over? I had a Kodak one that had jelly video like crazy but it could do 720p! Used it quite a bit lol.

>>4483080
The ZI8 had a few advantages over the Flip
>1080p instead of 720p
>Used SD cards instead of internal memory
>Mic jack
>Image stabilization (whatever that consisted of)
I remember I had a "rig" for mine that consisted of a cheap "L" bracket with a couple of cold-shoe mounts that I used for the mic and for an external light.

Yeah, it was an interesting time. Smartphones were around, but they hadn't completely taken over. And even then, the cameras on them were just "okay." So to get full HD in something that fit in your pocket AND was under $200 was pretty cool.

I love the Osmo Pocket series of cameras by DJI. With the Pocket One, I had gotten some amazing slo-mo cheerleader video, so the Pocket 3 was a must get when the price dropped recently.

aiptek from around 15 years ago. I lost it recently. took decent 720p but the pistol style is what made it unique. I'v only seen one modern one like it. but it's easier to hold steady.

Fellow Aiptek user.
I still use picrel. It takes uniquely shit photos and slides easily into a jacket pocket. Only gives 20 shots before the internal ram fills up.

this in black and white mode with the APSC lensor was GOAT

When I was a kid, I always wanted a minox camera so I could pretend to be a spy. This camera was fun.

>>4493433
I think these are pretty normal among vlogger types

>>4493594
I've mostly seen Chinese tourists use them.

>>4493521
Sounds like a perfect street photography camera on paper. And holy shit, that slow motion sounds impressive. I'll have to look up clips.
