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.

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.

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.

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.
