Kenko Tokina Co., Ltd. has announced the ultra-compact digital camera 'Kenko Toy Camera PIENI 8'. The release date is November 15, 2024. The price is open, with a direct sales price of 8,470 yen (tax included).
The Charm of Ultra-Compact and Retro Design
'PIENI 8' miniaturizes the nostalgic design of an 8mm film camera. Its vintage-inspired form is a distinctive feature.
With its compact size and included hand strap, it is easy to carry and enjoy shooting casually. It supports USB charging, making data transfer simple.
Enjoy the Unpredictable Results of a Toy Camera Experience
The absence of an LCD monitor is the essence of PIENI 8, as you cannot check the results immediately after shooting. Photos and videos are saved on a microSD, allowing you to enjoy the excitement of not knowing the outcome until development, similar to a film camera.
It also supports video recording with sound, creating a unique nostalgic atmosphere.
