I don't care how stupid and dumb this is, I want one. If I had $150 to just burn I'd get one.

Kind of cute, but I don't think their resolution numbers calculation inspires much confidence
1920 x 1080 is not 12 megapixels!

It's a toy.

If someone made one of these with reasonable resolution I'd be all over it. I want a digital TLR.

Look up "Rolleiflex MiniDigi" for a similar idea that came and went in a couple of incarnations some years back.

I used to shoot my kids' weddings with a Mamiya TLR. This looks more like a toy camera, too small to interest me. Other than the appearance, I can't see why I would want one.

Have you seen what sells in the digital world now? People go gaga over retro inspired cameras. I would love a Hasselblad/Bronica/Mamiya waist level viewfinder inspired digital camera. Just for the fun of it.

Of course, don't miss out on this one:

I like it, but image quality looks similar to that of my $20 AliExpress Y600 kid's camera. If I bought one, I think it would be mostly a display piece.

Sure. But you wanted awaist-level digital Hasselblad. It's there for you, just for the fun of it.

It's just a flippy screen. Not the same you know...

It's waist-level, you know. One could put a hood on it, with a little effort.

It's very cute, low resolution digital is becoming popular amongst the young, especially since film has become very expensive.
I know a few young family members who would love one.
If it shot in mono and took a filter, I'd buy one for myself.

Who walked in?
