Image quality

Like most toy cameras this uses a plastic lens.
So this don´t produce clean and sharp images but you get a dreamy / moody image.
And that´s exactly what I want for this type of camera.





Build quality

This have a all plastic housing.
The shutter is good and have a nice feel to it.
The rest of the levers don´t feel that solid but they work good.

It looks and feels cheap but that’s kinda the thing with this type of camera.


Conclusion

This is a great camera if you take it for what it is (a cheap plastic camera)
And you can have tons of fun with this.

It produces images that have a nice feel / mood.
The shutter is smooth and works great.
