Testing the WEIRDEST 35mm Point and Shoot Film Camera

[@bobsykes]

I love it. This one definitely falls into my “Willem shot this camera so that we don’t have to.” The first one was him making portraits with an 8” x 10” Polaroid plate film view camera. So fun. ✌️

[@ThatShaunBoy]

It'd be really fun to see modern camera's having names like this instead of dry model number product codes. Sony Sunflower. Fuji Fig Roll. "what you shooting with there?" "Oh this? Canon Cucumber, mate"

[@jasonandrews7355]

I definitely wish there was more playfulness in the camera industry. Give me fun names, cool colours, interesting designs! Aside from some silver Fuji bodies, the Nikon ZFC, and super cheap DSLRs (Rebel SL2,) is there any currently produced camera that's not black?

[@venom2k2]

Thanks for the good laugh, bro! Canon Cucumber 😂

[@jackkraken3888]

I have a Nikon Tsundere, it can be difficult to work with, but it takes great shots.

came to say the same thing

[@r.wilson8095]

Anytime when someone like Willem puts out a video about a camera, the price is going to launch upwards no matter how good it is or in this case not so good. It’s good though that he even says “Don’t go out and buy this camera”…. Its fun to use, made good content for a video and that it’s called Tomato!

[@BlazingSerenade]

this camera was already at like 100 dollars on ebay, so it 's just gonna get crazier haha

[@broski499]

Willem just trying to ketchup, the Tomato been big deal for decades.

[@john_murch]

That's a saucy little comment...🍅 😎

[@Angelina-fy4il]

can you please do a video on which photographers inspire you!! Ty and I love your videos

[@donaldlampert331]

Seems that some undisclosed Japanese camera company made many iterations of this basic boxy angular designed camera, all in bright fun colors! It appears to be from the 1980’s, and many names were used on the various quirky uniquely optioned units. I have a bright green one thats labeled as an Edixa ( the west german Wirgin camera company that was by then 10 years out of business). The unusual feature of mine, is that is is called the Edixa DUAL because it shoots both full and half frame photos! On the lens cover it says 72 EXP. A lot of internet searching revealed that it was probably made by W. Haking Enterprise Ltd, of Hong Kong. Similar models seem to be the Halina 160, & 260, and the Hanimex 35 es. So now we have the Konica Tomatoe!! Thanks

Yes

[@dogga6313]

Welcome to 2021, when a plastic pointshoot, is just as expensive as a half decent slr lol

[@jasonandrews7355]

Do you want a Nikon FE + a prime, or a Stylus Epic? Lol (to each their own I guess, but I love a good slr)

[@yudhasbono]

I'm still waiting for that "this video is sponsored by Carhartt" lol

[@andydreadsbmx]

Gotta say this camera is not a bad camera compared to some of the expensive point and shoots out there. You also did not mention anything about the close focus option on the camera that is a bit different from other fixed focus point and shoots. I personally have one and the images I have gotten have been pretty comparable if not better than some of the other Olympus point and shoots I have used.

[@weisserth]

The surge in prices for analog cameras is driving up prices of junkers which in the past went for $5 in thrift stores and now cost north of $50 to $100.

[@Gangladeshh]

Would you consider the konica tomato a junker?

ahhh ive been waiting for you to drop a vid !! great photos as always bruv i truly love to watch you create

[@sivgreyson]

another video, another banger. ur my fav filmbro

[@alexcarrillo5510]

Love it, Long ago I went to Japantown here in San Francisco, as I bought a camera there but it was similar to the Tomato, as it was the called the Luminox Classic 35 as the lens cover opens like a drawbridge, and then you manually pulled the lens out, and lock, as the lens saids: Lens made in Japan, with 2 apertures -Sun Fl16 Cloudy Bright, Well I knew that it was made in China, but it did had a CDS cell, and a built in Flash, as I use it with 400 speed film, and the lens is sharp I was please, and takes 2 AAA Batteries for the flash - Thumb wind, and sharp shots as when I was using it that it reminded me of your Tomato from Konica... Good Video Bravo. Not bad for $30.00 Toy Camera....

have these been edited after processing or are these representative of what the camera can do by itself?

[@FreyaBassam]

your videos are shot so beautifully!

[@MKVD]

I have one of these in pristine condition, however the flash doesn't work. But it's a nice camera to carry around, although I find myself grabbing a mju nowadays instead of this.

[@ghedelacruz3331]

Those shots are 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

[@Gangladeshh]

I want to start shooting film and want to get basically a very cheap camera for my first one (so I can see if I actually like it.) Would you recommend this over one of the cheaper new options like the Kodak M38? or would you say the photo quality is similar

[@alanmoulsdale6172]

I used to own one back in the '80s. In the UK it was known as the "POP 10". I wish I still had it. They are rare now! Very sharp lens as I remember.

It’s a special edition of the Konica Pop10. They’re functionally the same camera.

You should do a vid where you just “fire from the hip” on an entire roll. Don’t look through the viewfinder, just use your eyes and show the results 😎

[@Sparkleops]

Happy Tomato owner here.

[@Kuesa]

I believe it was called the Tomato because Konica was experimenting with scratch-and-sniff-style patches with their camera technology. You should be able to rub on the red parts of the camera and get a lovely odor of tomato soup that stays on your hands for a good few weeks! I hear it tastes like the nintendo switch cartridges though, so keep it away from your mouth.

[@michealnotmichael9488]

I got one last year too. basically a special version of the Konica Pop-10. But the complaint is real as it really does feel like a disposable camera, just with a databack.. there is no depth of field on it even when you know the aperture can open to f4/f5.6 But still very cute tho

[@LasstUnsSpielen]

Depth of field doesn’t make your photos good.

[@messsucher]

@@LasstUnsSpielen im never said DOF makes my photo good. what Im saying is I expect to blur out some foreground at f4 or f5.6. But that did not happen with my Konica Tomato

Hi Willem!

[@newq]

I wish I had the balls to just walk into someone's yard and start snapping photos. Back when I was a delivery driver, after I'd just dropped off an order, I saw a cat sitting on the roof of my customer's neighbors house so I pulled out my phone and took a few photos. Then this girl came out and started screaming at me for being a creep. I tried to explain I just saw a cat in a weird spot. I showed her the photos. She didn't care. She was seething. So I just got in my car and left.
