Briefings
Camp Snap released a miniature version of its CS-8 video camera, reducing the device size by more than half while maintaining a retro design inspired by vintage film cameras. The new CS-8 Mini features a smaller grip for better portability and a lower resolution of 2.7K compared to the original's 4K capability, with the product now available for purchase at $149.99.
Key points
- Camp Snap introduced a miniature version of its CS-8 video camera that is less than half the size of the original model.
- The CS-8 Mini uses a 1/2.7-inch sensor to limit video resolution to 2.7K, whereas the original CS-8 supports 4K.
Context
Camp Snap, a digital camera manufacturer, announced the CS-8 Mini alongside new color options for its screen-free CS-8. The device was inspired by Canon and Kodak Super 8mm film cameras from decades ago, featuring a smaller grip for easier handling by smaller hands.
