I wish I could buy this amazing looking card camera – is this the return of the metal-bodied compact camera?
Metal bodied cameras used to be fairly common, but now most cameras (even mirrorless models) are made of plastic, but not this one. The post I wish I could buy this amazing looking card camera – is this the return of the metal-bodied compact camera? appeared first on Amateur Photographer .
In a surprising turn of events, Rollei has reintroduced compact cameras with metal bodies, reminiscent of the iconic Casio Exilim card cameras from the early digital camera era. The new Rollei Compactline Slim Silver boasts an 8MP CMOS sensor and a 28mm equivalent f/2.2 lens with autofocus. Despite its slim design, the camera weighs a mere 88 grams.
It features a 2.4-inch screen, supports 2GB MicroSD cards, and shoots 2.7K and Full HD video (though 4K footage is interpolated). Priced at €60-70 in Germany, this camera offers a promising alternative to the more expensive slim cameras like the Paper Shoot.
