Last year I bought a vintage digital camera on eBay, the Kodak C300. It's like brand new and got it for a few dollars only.
It's a 15 years old digital camera with a 3 mpx CCD sensor with a 37mm equivalent lens at f/4.5
It works with normal AA batteries, so no problem to get batteries for it, because it's often the problem with old digital cameras, battery pack are sometimes hard to find.
I'Ve read an article a long time ago about a photographer who was using only old digital cameras because she liked the look of the small cheap sensor back then, it somehow gives some kind of analog look to the pictures because of all the imperfections, the soft lens and the noise from the sensor.
CCD sensors is the key here for the look, so you have to look for cameras from the early 2000's
This is the article if you're interested: https://www.dpreview.com/intervi…
Here's a few pictures I took this morning, I edited them in Adobe Camera RAW editor to make them feel more analog. No presets, i never use presets.
- Fuck yeahnb
- I’m thinking about a CCD Leica. But these oldies make beautiful images.nb
- this is my camera: https://i.imgur.com/…Bennn
- You can go cheaper than a Leica, cheaper means more imperfections = more nostalgia feel :) If this is what you wantBennn
- I bought that Kodak for 10$Bennn
- I like the hand portrait look. Lynch was smitten with this look. Shot 'Inland Empire' like it...eddieScissors
- Check out Fuji SuperCCD toonb
- I love that fact that we are all downgrading. I bought an adapter to put my hasseblad lenses on my blackmagic pocket 6K.tank02
- wow this is amazing_niko
- I think one of my first ever digital camera had a SuperCCD, it was a FujiBennn
- also, what former Soviet republic is this? ;)_niko
- @eddie Cool i didnt know about this movieBennn
- @niko lol its in MTLBennn
- The outdoor shots are gorgeous. The hand is interesting but I'm not really into the cross-processed looknb
- Thumbs up, Bennn!SimonFFM
- https://m.dpreview.c…
I had a couple of these. Quality was incredible for the time, size and price.nb - But yeah once the batteries went, that was it. May still have these at my mom's, I might dig around next time I'm therenb

What are those spherical pod things?Nairn - The city made a park on an ancient huge trash landfill, it's something to capture the gas escaping from the ground... something like thatBennn

- i miss my m8...ok_not_ok
- just posted many pics in the threadBennn
- should the words 'vintage' and 'digital' be used together yet? ...especially regarding a camera? Still feels too new a format... or did I just become 'old'? o_oPonyBoy
- yes, vintage digital cameras is a thing. The first digital cameras from 1999~2005 are the first gen with ancient technology.Bennn
- Can be considered 'vintage' in the tech world wich move very fast, i thinkBennn
- Weirdly I still have my old Canon G1, a "prosumer" digital from 2000. It can get some pretty wacky grain if you abuse the light.evilpeacock
- Damn, I was gifted a super early digital camera in 1999, wasn’t even a megapixel resolutionfuturefood
- @ok Why the hell would you get rid of an M8?garbage
- Yes, totally a MQGA post!SimonFFM
- Nice Bennn, love the top and bottom shot. Anyone remember the Apple Quicktake from 1994? I think I still have it somewhere.fadein11

- Back when i was using Lomo LCA/Holga and other lo-fi film cameras I said that digital cameras should integrate such random film effects that could be selected..microkorg
- .. or could be randomised as you took the pic. I shouldve approached a camera company with the idea. Cos years later... lomo apps...microkorg
- ..film effect apps, instagram filters etc. Effects on cameras (before cameras were 'good' on smart phones) would've been massive i bet.microkorg
- Bennn, does it have to be old CCD cameras? There are some recent ones:drgs
- https://www.dpreview…drgs
- the old models make more 'crappy' pictures wich create interesting effect, recent camera are ''too good''Bennn

- great shot! sunrises/sets are my favorite! especially when the clouds just allow the sun to peak through on the horizon—everything becomes fire/magenta!jaylarson

- The use photoshopGabriel
- @phanlo. Well, it’s a known fact the people moved slower back then so that helped the exposureGnash
- Hence the term ‘fast-paced’ to describe mordere lifeGnash
- We also have to take into account that there were less humans at that time so Earth was lighter. This helped reduce exposure time.palimpsest
- You’re right that the earth was lighter then, but only because the USA was still young and everyone wasn’t fat yetGnash
- Also, more people believed in god back then. As the souls left the atheists bodies they got lighter. So it kinda evens outsGnash

been playing around with my new Hasselblad H6D-400c MS, a little pricey but well worth it. The Model is Mariko, flew her in from Osaka for a week's shoot, she's loving her time in Toronto but man she's got expensive tastes, hotel and dinners alone are costing me an arm and a leg.
Studio is fairly new, space is great and lighting equipment is all brand new, I hate the setting up part but it's a must for great results.
first test shot:
just kidding, this is a 5 second prompt in Midjourney. I don't think physical photography will ever go the way of blockbuster but man it's hard to make a case for it as AI gets better and better.
