Thanks to its combination of a tiny body, retro design, and affordable price, the Kodak Charmera was a real hit last year. Retro is now trying to build on the camera’s success by launching seven new variants at once. Just like the older model, the Millennium Edition is sold as a mystery box, so which of the seven designs you receive is a matter of chance.
New Colors and Filters
The Millennium Edition not only features a colorful body with a metallic look, but Retro has also equipped the Kodak Charmera with a range of new filters to customize the look of your photos. The dimensions remain unchanged at 58 x 24.5 x 20 millimeters, so the Kodak Charmera is still small enough to fit on a keychain. The hardware itself remains unchanged.
Specifications and Pricing
The Kodak Charmera combines a 1.6-megapixel CMOS sensor in a 1/4-inch format with a 35 mm f/2.4 lens. Photos are saved in JPEG format with a resolution of 1,440 x 1,080 pixels. The image quality is therefore more reminiscent of old toy cameras. The 200 mAh battery can be charged via USB-C. A microSD memory card is required for use, but is not included.
