There’s a tiny digital camera inside these retro 35mm film rolls

SMRTR summary

Following Kodak's retro-inspired Charmera camera, Japan has released the OPT100 Neo Film, a digital camera disguised as a 35mm film roll inside its canister and box. Priced at about $40, this tiny camera features a 1-megapixel sensor that drops to 0.3-megapixels for video, producing grainy, low-resolution images with muted colors. Despite its poor image quality and awkward design that uses the film spindle as a shutter button, the OPT100 is expected to sell well among collectors of retro gadgets.
