4.0 out of 5 stars cheapo but neato, November 27, 2005

Just got my first roll back of Supersampler photos. The camera is extremely fragile and cheap in feel and in cost and is the antithesis of the Canon 300D I usually shoot with. But the results are just so different and cool, it's well worth the investment. The total lack of controls (even a viewfinder!) makes every picture a guess, and makes the results even more rewarding. I strongly recommend it if you want an inexpensive alternative to the precision you're used to.

I bought this as a present for my room mate and he took some pictures and it was fun, but halfway through the first roll of film the string (which is the shutter release) broke.

We are still waiting for a replacement after we sent it back to the company . . .

I really enjoy this camera. It is cheaply made and I feel like I have to be very careful not to break it especially while advancing the film but it takes some great pictures. On a roll of 24 I had about 1/2 a roll of great photos. It's a lot of fun and experiment with. The packaging is very cool and it somes with a little book of photos taken with the camera that are really neat.
