Contains chemicals?

I received this camera thinking it would be a good upgrade for my instax mini 9. After ordering the camera I saw a small notice on the Amazon page to the State of California that the product contains chemicals known to cause cancer and birth defects. I was dismayed but brushed it off when I saw that many everyday products also have this warning label. The camera arrived early enough, actually two days early, which was nice. I opened the box and took out the camera, put in the batteries and film that I bought separately. The image quality was really good, but I noticed my hands felt weird after picking up the camera. I was trying to figure out if it was a camera, or maybe it seemed to me, so I washed my hands, left the camera alone for a while, and then returned to it with a stick. I felt better before picking it up again and in fact after holding it again a red itchy rash appeared on my hands and fingers. I was really upset because it was so weird and I really wanted to use this camera so I tried again, this time putting it on my lap to see if the skin on my legs would react. Soon a red rash appeared on the legs. I asked two members of my family to hold the camera for a while and the same thing happened to them. I'm very disappointed because the camera itself works great; Unfortunately, I don't want to break out in hives every time I hold it in my hand to take pictures.

Pros
  • Selfie mode with built in selfie mirror
Cons
  • Minor things
