Q: what is the size of the lens that doesn't have a cap?

submitted by bree - 5 months ago
  • A: Hi, thank you for reaching out about Camp Snap Video Camera CS-VC8. The Camp Snap CS-8 (also listed as model CS-VC8) does not come with a physical lens cap, leaving the front element of the lens exposed.

    A Cute Retro Video Camera That Kids Will Love! 📹✨

    The Camp Snap video camera is so cute and has a fun, retro design! It reminds me of an old-school recording camera, which makes it unique compared to modern cameras. My son personally loves it, and I think it’s a fun way for kids to capture memories. There are a couple of drawbacks, though. You have to continuously hold down the button while recording, which can be a little inconvenient, and it only comes with 4GB of memory. The good news is that you can switch out the memory card for one with more storage. You can also download your videos elsewhere and clear the card to start recording again. One feature I really like is the SD card meter on the side. It’s super convenient because you can easily keep track of how much storage you have left. The camera also offers multiple film styles, although I’ve only tried one or two so far. Overall, I think this is a fun little camera, especially for kids who enjoy recording videos. Despite a few minor drawbacks, my son loves it, and I really like its nostalgic design and simple features.

    Love it!

    10/10, ease of digicams which the feel and cool-look of holding a real Super8 (and without the cost and upkeep of buying film!). Also appreciate the new firmware update to make the filters look more realistic.

    Brings Back The Fun In Filmmaking

    For about a month I've been using this camera & couldn't be happier. It brings back a nostalgic joy to making movies. From adventures with my kiddo to family visits, it's brought out a sense of creativity I haven't had in a long time. You just get the sense of being a kid again using it, making movies with the old VHS camcorder with your friends. Very excited to put together my yearly video at the end of the year to give it that nostalgic, timeless joy that's been missing.

    Impressive camera!

    This is a great, high quality video for casual and professional use to capture life’s great moments. The video quality is sharp, crisp and high definition to preserve every moment at its finest. The camera is easy and Vineland to set up with tons of useful functional. It’s portable and great for travel. The storage is more than plenty for trips and photo shorts. I’m impressed with this camera and would highly recommend it to others based on its quality and functional!

    Memory Maker

    If you’re looking for a screen free Christmas present this season, the camp snap video camera is it. This reminds me of making homemade movies growing up, and I love the ideas of my kids, capturing little moments from their own perspective. It feels comfortable in your hands and is super easy to use so they can pick up and start filming without a lot of explanation. My biggest wish is that it came with a lens cover because… Kids. Between little fingers being tossed in the bags and getting set down wherever I’d appreciate something to help protect the lens when it’s not being used. Otherwise I’m excited about it! There’s something fun about waiting to watch the footage afterward instead of immediately checking every clip. What a fun way to collect memories together as a family.

    Brings family videos back to a simpler time.

    Perfect for what I wanted. A way to capture my family events with the look/feel of my childhood. Then the ease of transferring the video is the icing on the cake. Good price point so I’m all around happy.

    One of the highest highlights of our wedding day

    We bought this for our wedding and it was a hit! It is insanely easy to use so it could be passed off with a quick "pull the trigger and shoot some clips" and made its way through a few different guests and the battery lasted a long time. We got about 150-170 short clips on one charge. The film grain looks amazing on the analog setting in 4:3 ratio which is how we shot everything for the day for our retro themed wedding. All over the grounds all we heard all day was "is that a super 8?" And "where can I get one of those?" (And congratulations lol) We had a blast passing the phones around at breakfast the next morning with all of the clips already uploaded and ready to go for people to watch. An absolute must have for analog people that can't commit to a life of digitizing film reels or paying for someone with the skill to do so. I would honestly genuinely give more than 5 stars if that was possible because it just added SO MUCH to our already beautiful day and I can't imagine doing it over without it. Apparently I can't add clips so enjoy some screenshots FROM the clips

    Fun and easy to use, but the eye cup is a problem

    Great but uncomfortable for left-eye dominant people. The eye cup is only shaped for right-eye use, so used with the left eye it doesn’t fit the face. Any adjustment to holding it puts the internal screen slightly out of view. I tried to unscrew and rotate it, but the holes are asymmetrical. Support wasn’t able to offer a solution. I’m going to try using it a few more times to decide whether I want to keep it.
