Review on 📸 Nishika N8000: Discover Stunning 3D Images with Quadrascopic Stereo Lenticular Camera by Matthew Fleming

EDIT: After owning this camera for about a year I have decided to upgrade it to 3 stars instead of 2. While I still stand by my original review (unedited, below), I feel this camera is at least fun to shoot with. The results are not particularly touching, but they are unique. Also, the original review was written before this camera was paired with a hot shoe, which also changed my review. This camera is unique - for a few good reasons and a bunch of lousy ones - but then again, at this price point, it's cheap enough to pass off as nothing more than a curiosity. Despite the shortcomings, I liked it. One final point to edit: this camera has a frame counter - not a given in the toy camera market, but definitely a must for a camera that shoots twice as wide. FIRST RATING: When I bought this camera, I made my decision based on two factors: first, the low price, and second, the fact that it used plastic lenses. I was hoping to get a camera with a good Lomo Effect without spending a lot (I find most toy cameras are grossly overpriced). The results I got from this camera were lackluster and not particularly outstanding in any way. This camera is a behemoth littered with cheap fake features (like the fake LCD and its nonexistent pentaprism), but the camera itself looks pretty solid. This camera's power is a thumb grip and the batteries simply control the ambient light sensor, which flashes red when the lighting is too low. Also, on the battery, an LED on the front of the camera will light up to indicate the battery is working, which I think is dangerously close to being useless. However, after shooting a movie with this camera, the results were not appealing. . I was expecting vignetting and blur, but didn't get either. The pictures had no character. There was nothing notable about them, aside from the film's graininess. I decided to make some changes to this camera to make it a little more useful, but I wouldn't recommend it. It's not much fun to shoot with, and even less fun to carry around.
