This one's adorably minimal and looks like something you'd find in an art student's tote bag next to a sketchbook and loose Polaroids.

It supports micro SD cards (up to 16GB), takes JPEG stills and MJPEG videos, and even records audio.

Weighing just 18g, it comes in grey, mint, peach, and orange, complete with a strap and USB cable (but no micro SD card, sorry bestie).

It's not here to replace your DSLR, but it's here to make your life look like a dreamy, lo-fi film roll.

Tiny screen. Big attitude.

This little thing can record 1080p videos at 30FPS, and capture 3760 x 2128 photos, which is wild for its size.

Great for vlogging, recording POV content, or just pretending you're on a secret mission.
