It’s incredibly easy to use and lets kids capture memories that last a lifetime.
-
The Camp Snap 2 takes the original screen-free camera, fixes almost everything, whilst keeping it beautifully simple and fun to use. It’s a serious must-buy!
-
This is the best simple, inexpensive, screenless camera for children going to camp — or anyone who wants to live in the moment when taking photos.
-
The screen-free design is excellent for retro fans, particularly with the new filter button to swap through six different retro filters.
-
The Camp Snap 2 is just as charming, fun, and affordable as the original.
-
The lo-fi shooting experience is still refreshing, and the addition of new image filters adds creative depth, even if they are less striking and distinctive than those on the pricier CS-Pro.
-
The Camp Snap 2 is the upgrade I didn’t know I needed, with an improved design and built-in filters, but some issues from the Original Camp Snap linger.
-
At $69.95, it's about half the price of a standard digital camera, and although it definitely has some drawbacks, like no screen or zoom, it makes up for them with ease and charm.
-
But if you crave nostalgia, simplicity, and a little unpredictability, it’s a delightful digital throwback.
-
Overall, the Camp Snap 2 is much smaller and much more pocketable than the Camp Snap Pro, which is the biggest of all the different Cam Snap cameras. So, which one you take with you would really depend on how you're going to carry it.
-
[T]he picture quality is just not all that great.
-
Guys, this is a gnarly little camera.
-
The Camp Snap 2 is a fun, low-stress camera.
