It also boasts a long battery life all for just $65.
However, the delayed shutter response results in missed shots, and theres no camera strap included.
The camera isnt expensive either, costing just $65.

However, there are some noteworthy shortcomings, like delayed shutter response which can lead to missed shots.
Is it one of thebest cheap camerasaround?
For the complete breakdown, read my full Camp Snap review.
I, personally, tested the arctic white colorway.
All variants have a black body and all that changes is the color of the faux-leather on the front.
It isnt very heavy either, weighing 3.28oz, so you dont even feel it in your pocket.
On either side of the camera, youll find two hooks to attach a camera strap.
However, Camp Snap doesnt provide an attachment in the box, and I really wish it did.
Otherwise, its incredibly easy to carry around.
As Camp Snap gave us five cameras, I distributed a couple to my colleagues to get their impressions.
The cameras pocket-sized so it was easy to carry around, said Harry Padoan, TechRadar reviews writer.
Thats what makes the Camp Snap childs play: anyone can use it.
The Camp Snap is fitted with a small viewfinder right in the centre on the back.
I wear prescription glasses and I found it easy and comfortable to look through.
Its similar in size to that of the Kodak Ultra F9s and the Novocolor Swiss+Go 35mms.
There are only two buttons on the camera.
The top plate houses the shutter button which doubles as the power button.
Holding it down for a couple of seconds turns it on, and pressing it takes a photo.
Youll hear a loudclickevery time you take a photo or power it up and down.
Its towards the right-hand side of the plate so apologies to my left-handed comrades.
A switch next to the viewfinder on the back lets you toggle the flash.

I love the first photo of what feels like a pigeon giving the other a kiss.
Color reproduction is faithful and the camera has added a vintage hue which I like.
And yet, the photo is sharp.

Like I said before, the Camp Snap is great for capturing landscapes and portraits.
Harry used the Camp Snap around Bath, U.K. too, and took the photos of his partner above.
I was pretty happy with the look and feel of the photos," he said.

“The color reproduction isnt very accurate and the vivid colors of the bright, sunny day were lost.
The Camp Snap genuinely reminds me of disposable cameras in the 2000s.
Images look pretty good from mid-distance, although when you zoom in, theyre not that sharp.

The bunch of flowers and Marshall amp are out of focus and the photos arent usable.
Overall, Im pleased with the Camp Snaps results.
Are they the best photos Ive ever taken?

No, and they arent always properly exposed either, but thats not the point of the camera.
Its to allow you to live in the moment while capturing film-like photos.
A rubber flap covers the USB-C port located on the bottom plate.

Camp Snap claims that this camera can shoot 500 photos on a single charge, depending on usage conditions.
This is fantastic from such a small camera.
It outperforms the likes of the Fujifilm Instax Pal (rated for 350 shots).

The camera takes good photos in bright conditions too, and theres a built-in flash for low-light environments.
Also, the delayed shutter response can result in missed shots which can be frustrating.
