So many versions of this camera are popping up on the market these days. Thought I'd give one a try. I chose the AgfaPhoto reusable mainly because I thought it looked a bit nicer than some of the other versions out there. The AgfaPhoto film specs are the same as the Ilford Sprite II. There are many similar versions of this camera under names such as Kodak, Ilford, Dubble Film and Vibe just to name a few. The construction of these cameras are plastic with a 1 element plastic lens having a focal length around 31 or 32 mm and an aperture somewhere around f/8 to f/10. The shutter speed seems to be approx. 1/120 of a second and all have a built in flash.
So what did I expect from a plastic camera with a plastic lens that can average anywhere from about $35 to $60 USD? Based on the price, the results were close to what I expected. Photos were overall sharper in the center and softer on the edges but fun to use, good for snap shots and some low-fi artsy stuff. I imagine with each individual camera the lens performance may differ from camera to camera. I plan on getting another one from another brand and see how they compare.
