Why Digicams Are Making a Comeback in 2024.

[@KingJvpes]

But can a digicam replace a disposable? 👀

[@anachronismic]

If you can get one for under $30 then they should imo, unless you're a fan of the ritual of it, or you know for sure you want the soft plastic lens at f11 or whatever. Got a good deal on a kyocera finecam sl300r recently (don't get this one lol it and it's contax bretheren are too expensive normally), and it's been taking the place of a film camera for party shots for sure. Normal photos come out better than I thought too.

[@dejap7573]

Lolllll the diddy shade 😂

[@romanfedorowycz4090]

With a shitty enough lens anything is possible

[@jmtphotographymedia]

Absolutely. Film....sucks. lol I really want you to try the Fuji X30. Its a great premium small sensor compact with great features, handling, and shooting experience. ...parties not with P.Diddy LMAO

[@romanfedorowycz4090]

@@jmtphotographymedia Film is much more expensive in the long run for sure. And hard to get good results, much harder and more finicky. Fun as a change-up from mostly digital shooting though once in a while.

It’s only a matter of time until the trendy “discover” DSLRs, photographer vests, and birding.

[@yendor2043]

Birding hit me hard the minute I turned 50.

[@sneekibreekiruski]

Oh dear god no lol. I hope the 15-20 year old dslr market stays as cheap as it is. We don’t need a canon 20d costing like $500 lol

[@daviddillon6163]

started on Olympus digicams, I now own close to $2000 in film gear and know so much more about photography. digicams are the gateway drug.

Which olympus digicam is good? Also do uk anything about the olympus fe 26?

I just ordered a g9. Wish me luck :)

[@bernsteiner88]

you must be so on to drugs more I guess HAHAHA, I started with Sony Digicams and they are great (almost 20 years ago) and now I step up to more complex camera and shooting and this is our drugs HAHAHA 😅😅😅

[@assacarnes.]

playing with digicams is what made me have so much interest for photography

[@socksonfeet8125]

I like how everyone talks about how awesome this old tech is but meanwhile all their own content is made with good quality cameras and good lighting lol 😁😁

[@MegaMinecraft901]

lol old tech is awesome but it’s not a replacement

[@srspanksalot4501]

That’s because they want to take vintage photos. Not tank their KZbin career

[@Roset595]

Good for photos, bad for video

[@danielx555]

More than 20 years ago, I bought a digicam and my love of photography came back to life. I had of course grown up with film and I shot a lot of images with film, but I never wanted to spend time developing or printing or learning chemistry and I know that I was not smart enough to really figure out metering and light. (I mean, I could have done it, but my mind is over on the creative side usually.) Also, I love black and white photography, but with film it was basically a $50 proposition for every roll (buying and developing and printing). I was amazed that I had a little device that was giving me solid images that I could look at on a large screen and be happy about. It's wonderful to be able to swap out lenses but for a lot of purposes a good one piece camera with one lens is adequate. I recently bought a bridge camera to add to my DSLR and mirrorless. It's awesome. And I want to round out my collection by getting a good digicam.

[@jmonkk2112]

1:57 we just gonna gloss over the diddy joke? 😂😂 that was hilarious

[@lucardsplace]

was so outta pocket but i loved it :')

[@jabez1409]

I have recently picked back up, one my first digital cameras again which I bought for its compact body. The camera is Panasonic DMC-ZS40S, and I wanted to take it out to experiment shooting it in a concert. Especially since most concerts will not allow you to bring a mirrorless/DSLR unless you are media. This also helped me decide if I "REALLY NEED" to purchase a new compact camera like the Sony RX100 VII. I was shocked with the results I got on the photos I took with the Panasonic DMC-ZS40S. It did have its limitations, but I was able to work around it and just focus on compositions and editing, since its able to export RAW photos at 18.1MP. Great reminder to keep (my) photography simple (for me) to enjoy.

[@danielx555]

I like what you say about the limitations. I think it's important with any camera or lens or equipment to figure out what the weaknesses are, and then focus on the strengths. I just got a nice Lumix bridge camera and now that I'm aware of things that it's not so great at it (low light, for instance) I am getting great images with it. I absolutely want to get a good digicam now.

[@calahad]

Sigh. Here we go again.

My wife's employer gave her a used Canon PowerShot ELPH 300 HS and it's a great little camera. It takes good lowlight video and images.

[@400spd]

diddy catching strays from all corners.

[@Jpow5734]

Good

[@LarryMarsh]

My $5 Goodwill Nikon S3300 is always in my pocket. It's kind of a relief not caring my DSLR or SLR everyday like I had done for the last 30 plus years! I also bought a Lumix DC-ZS80D. but that was a new in box purchase. .

[@grizzlyrunfast]

Lmfao homie thinks he's the reason for the digicam craze?😂😂😂

[@jedesperanza1320]

I had an old Kodak point and shoot that i've been trying to find and it was the first camera I had a little kid that really got me into photography

[@xyrnnz-j3z]

i've been using my sony digi-cam before it became a trend, and i gotta say, small compact camera really helps me to get through my daily street photography needs since dslr's are kind of considered a luxury here in the philippines. considering its megapixels and the quality, it can still take great images for me.

[@teethbrush15]

You’re really crediting yourself for this whole trend?

[@RayRomanMedia]

He owes us for the entire price mark up across the country lol

[@maverickmeier9938]

I recently purchased an old digicam from 2006 for like $2 and I can't find it anywhere on the internet or the company that made it. Opticon407 made a digicam in 2006 called the slim box cam. I have the cd for the software and drivers and the boxes and manuals. Plus the actual camera. It takes like 3 aaa batteries. There's no screen on the back, let me rephrase, there's a little like watch or calculator screen that shows the mode it's in and what photo number you are on. It's not gonna replace my nikon fm or anything but it's nice

[@cabcabs3278]

My aunt got me one of these for a school trip when they first came out. Mines got three dead pixels but that’s an easy fix in Lightroom. I just ordered some new batteries for it from Amazon. Can’t wait to be a real hipster with this thing.

[@tojgly]

Hi! I'm abaut to start my photography career and I'm interested abaut this canon sd1000. Should I buy it in 2024 if I want to take Street photography images? Pls let me know.That would mean a lot.

[@sergiocruzreyes6956]

I bought the SD1000 after watching your video. I managed to get it very cheap and then they started selling digicams at very high prices.

[@StupidIdea]

[@TopiOtter]

Got myself a Canon SD 630D and a Canon a3100IS from Canon, they're both pretty great but the older model has a shutter button that's nearly dead. The newer a3100IS is 12mp, and takes great photos. Almost always have it with me!

[@GlennO1961]

I've still got a Rollei 8325XS that I bought new back in the day. Does it fit the digicam bill?

[@gordomts7204]

i started with a sony dsc h70 2 years ago, then a i picked a rx100 II and now im looking for a dslr camera

[@tobi1kenobi35]

For the most part it's your average shift in the market. During lockdowns 35mm's were the rage. Kids were FOMO'ing because it was trendy. However, with the rising price of film and development, and instant gratification society we live in, the 35mm was inevitably going to phase out. So what's the next best thing that has that nostalgic/vintage feel, that provides instant photographic feedback...DigiCams. If you're a savvy investor, you could have taken advantage of selling 35mm's at it's peak, whilst using the profit to purchase tons of DigiCams for peanuts. Looks like we're heading to the top of the cycle again. What could be the next best thing after digicams? 🤷‍♂

[@damian9303]

The digicams that I really like don’t even have digital viewfinders and instead mimic the design of a film camera almost… I already got point-and-shoots higher than 2MP in count that were used to take our family pictures throughout the years which ofc my parents wouldn’t want what’s already on them to be overwritten, I experimented with phone cameras from past iterations but they remind me more of old social media in the way colors are handled; they look almost like filters.

[@leetmango]

Didn’t you release this video 2-3 times alrdy 😂

[@leetmango]

Just watched the full video. I get it now he’s just claiming all credit for making digicams popular got it.

[@frankartale1026]

These are vibe E cameras' they definitely create an old feel. The sd1000 is very limited but the form factor is crazy small. The size of a credit card and 3/4" thick is amazing

[@jmac_photo]

Stylish and compact= square and small = every digicam ever made 😱

[@txdoongi]

Why was I not surprised to see Twice at 1:55 💀

[@louhautdavid6451]

This is applied philosophy. I understand that the point is to make the act of taking a picture conscious. I guess that having a dedicated object is the first quality of a digicam. The second point is its limitations. Because you can't get a picture as sharp as the one one you have in your mind, you're stuck in the materiality of the support and the picture recovers its quality of being an object itself. Maybe this is true but I feel a bit confused because when I take my phone and choose the camera app, obviously I know what I'm doing. At the end there's one thing I'm sure about. The prices get higher and so digicams get more and more desirable. But I'm not so sure about the why.

[@ti2809]

[@123moe]

I've bene using my dad's old Olympus Camedia C-100, 1.3mp of pure beauty

[@eyedeerman]

Reality check: I wouldnt say the quality/look of the photo itself is nearly as close to being synonymous to 35mm film. It's really just the lo-fi pixelation kind of appreciation. They read/capture light differently and still can require some minor fine tuning post processing. In my experience, I would say its synonymous to [point and shoots] because it gives you that ability to immediately take a photo with the trust it'll capture the light (and focus) effectively. The best digi cams are the ones that you can shut off the display or rotate the screen like Canon Powershot G series because then you won't be pixel peeping and effectively treating it more like film. The screen resolution was so poor back then too so even if you pixel peep, what you see is far from what the actual uploaded file looks like. You still run the risk of taking an excessive number of photos unless it's a small enough storage card. The fact is, it allows us to capture photos... just differently.

[@BlazingSerenade]

i was gonna buy one but I remember I have an EPL8 so that's my digicam lol

Dont forget that the current big camera manufacturers dont want everyone to realize is that th3 kiw megapixel count does not really matter since we all share these images on our 5 to 6 inch phone screens. They always bombard us that we need a minimum of 40 mp and that 10 mp is old and should be forgotten. 😂😂😂
