- I found my family camera from over 12 years ago! the CCD sensor on the old digital cameras produces unique colours which gives off a nostalgic vibe that can look similar to film. in this video, I use this camera to take some street photography photos.
camera is the sony DSC-W350

I find it interesting that lower quality images with imperfections look way more appealing than high resolution perfect reproductions of reality.
something something life ain't perfect
It’s the feeling it gives. Basically puts us into a different time. Same reason why film is becoming so popular rn. It transitions us into whatever time frame they’re replicating. Brings nostalgic feelings.
It has to do with familiarity and nostalgia. High Def is nice, but it appears too digitized, making it unappealing to the eye
@@daftnessrollz yeah like when the hobbit movies were shot in 48 fps and people thought it looked off because it looked too realistic and showed too many details. I personally don’t think it looked too bad but for some people high def isn’t the best for films.
@yeti2turnt435 definitely depending on the mood of a film for sure.
It’s cool to see so many young people shooting in the same cameras I used when they were new! But imagine for just a minute spending around $500-$1000 for one of these. That’s what we paid back in the day. 😂
It reminds some of us of childhood! Can’t imagine paying $500 for a digicam though HAHA. It’s about $50 for one now and it’s so worth for the sense of nostalgia! ✌️
it's not easy finding basic point and shoot anymore at stores. all i see is mirrorless slr etc or cameras with huge lens almost 200 and up. i liked my hp digital cam in the past, but it no longer works. I used to have a sony camcorder where it had the hi8 mini tape i think, but it didn't work after 3 years.
The DSC-W350 he used here was around 170-200 $ new in 2010. It isnt even THAT old. Thats already "Vintage"? Try something from 20 Years ago. :-p I remember having a Kodak in 2004 thats shoots rly nice warm pictures. Problem with that old cameras is they dont accept modern SD cards. You need to find 128 MB SD Type 1cards or even less for them. I remember paying around 70 Euros for a 128 MB (NOT GB) card in 2004. Haha.
@@000jimbojones000 I think a lot of it is just how fast technology moves. It does depend tho, laptops from that era are obsolete but pc's are running pretty strong. Reminds me of my Fuji S2 Pro that I still use, from 2004 and still goes strong while many of my 2012 digicams suck ass. The sweet spot is the CCD Digicams, like Fujifilms Super CCD Cameras as a whole. Those have the real vintage look that most people want from old digicams
...which one costs € $ 1000,-- back then??? canons ixus series never!! ixus 90is new in 2009 costs € 299,-- last week i bought one, original closed and sealed NOS for € 60,--
Compared to many smartphone cameras, they do have an advantage of having better more natural low light photos
Definitely. And if u use the flash it’ll have a retro look.
I honestly find it a shame, smartphone cameras have REALLY good hardware, just they are ALWAYS over processed and I just gag whenever a reviewer says an iPhone looks natural. Most smartphones on the market are either oversaturated, oversharped or have too much contrast. I wouldn't mind using my smartphone as my camera but just because of the processing, it gives a good reason to still use a regular camera.
@@jesselam5867if it’s worth the hassle for you, one nice workaround is to shoot through apps like Lightroom, which give you more options regarding the post-processing within the phone :)
theres a raw mode@@jesselam5867
One of my friends brought one of these to my school field trip. Something about those photos make it look nostalgic. But my friends say every camera shoots photos like that. But they don't know what they are talking about. They probably never held a modern camera in their hands
I got a random digital camera from a guy in Tokyo some years ago and shot some pictures on it. Found the camera a little while back and it was kind of like finding a forgotten time capsule. The shots were so much more nostalic than those on my iPhone camera roll.
Sounds awesome! Maybe post a video about it and I’ll definitely watch! Thanks for the comment :)
Can you please tell me the name of this camera ❤@@nicholaskee
its been years since I used a camera like this. once I got a smartphone, I only ever took photos on my phone (and on film). as a photographer, I know I definitely need something like this for my pocket instead of having my professional camera on me, or using my phone. super cool vid dude:) and good music choice, I use this stuff too 💫
thanks! well the best camera is the one you use the most
Honestly feel with film prices getting high, many digital point and shoot cameras will make a comeback. I just made a video showing some photos I took with a Canon S95 point and shoot I found at a thrift store. Great shots and great video.
The S95!!! That was a lil point and shoot beast! Great find!
I can't believe the Canon point and shoots are nostalgic for some. I'll have to dig mine out.
can you us the video?
@@NewJill2024 It’s on my channel. Canon S95 sample photos.
Absolutely love this! I play with my old digital camera as well and love the results way more than on my Iphone13 hahaha. Photos just have a soul
yea! something about the colours making it look so good
what is the model of your old digital camera?
couldn't have worded those nicely
Yes, Retro is a better word, some people are saying that is like "film". In the 2000s era of digital cameras, nobody was saying that those cameras were like film, in a way it was the opposite. Now I see more youtubers saying that old digicams are like film. Maybe be with editing, but wouldn't that be the case for the vast majority of cameras?. Enjoy the camera, nice vid.
After each picture I can’t help by think it could easily pass as an album cover
Omg 2000s singapore back to life. Reminds me of the way my childhood photos look, love the nostalgia :)
I just love the way they have the white balance in night shots
They are such a vibe! 📸
Still got one too - I love it; I have a mobile phone and another (much larger) digital camera but my little Olympus camera is the best I have ❤
With film prices getting high, i got Canon IXY 10 and it gives me an amazing and film-like output. Superb!
the night shots are *chef kiss* omg so good
I love collecting old cameras. I love the way 2000 digital cameras photos look, I recently got a Polaroid A530 and am so excited to take photos with it. I usually collect analog so this is my first digital
Have fun with it!
I kept my CanonELPH that i used 15 years ago for vlogging and started using it again as my everyday carry camer. Love the look of it. A bit tweaking on post or leave it as is and definitely gives the film vibe.
That’s really cool! I’d love to have a camera like that
I’ve seen lots of videos like these with many different kinds of cameras and it’s true that the most important thing is the story the image tells/feeling it portrays, with your use of subject, lighting and composition rather than the gear you have.
Am i only one obsessed with these retro cameras like i have a iphone but idk why im dying over these
im a gen z and i used a mustk digi cam when i was like 8 on holiday 😭 i still remember taking pics of it like everyday so its weird to see younger ppl in my generation reviving it now. i feel old but im still so young its weird
2000s camera is super cool to take retro photos,2000s camera are the camera's that we buy when we start photography
These were the MySpace selfie pictures you’d take in the bathroom or take out when you go out with your friends
Nostalgia looking at these camera… btw great video
Thanks! Really appreciate it
Got this but 16 mp. Makes old looking picks as well. I also have a 2006 to 2008 7.2 megapixels Sony that recorded my entire childhood. Still works and I use it sometimes
I still have my old cyber shot with pics from 2009-2015 on it 😢 time flies
You should save those precious pictures onto your laptop or PC.
i found this very therapeutic tbh
I love the CCD Sensor, the grain its so nice
It’s a vibe 😎
@@nicholaskee yea, i have a Sony h55 and a Samsung NV10... Im in love...
That shot with the boy in the scooter was fire 🔥
So glad I found ur video. This is exactly what I was looking for!! :)
Glad it was helpful!
I use a 2005 8.1 megapixel Ricoh GR digital camera and shoot mostly black and white to get lovely filmic pictures.
just saw someone selling this for free cause they don’t want it anymore, refurbished and all. tbh if it has an issue who cares (it’s free) but I needed to see the pics quality. i’m sold.
ive been wanting to buy this exact one since 5 months or so. we used to have these type of cameras when i was younger. THIS VIDEO IS A SIGN FOR ME TO GET IT.
Get it! It’s so worth
this is a vibe, you are so!!😶💙
Very cool all the pictures looks great! Hope I can find one for myself!
Thank you! Hope u get to find one 🙂
i WISH i still had my canon from around 2006. Maaaan i had so much fun with that. So funny how life comes back full circle cus now im looking for a vintage camera from early 2000s 🤭
There's something special about the simpler things
i have that same camera! my mom has it and it’s red. it’s super cute !!
These areas are amazing too lol
This guy proved that you dont need costly dslr cameras to take good photo
I want to grow by exploring, appreciating and treasuring all the moments of my life. I badly want to have an digital camera or recorder but as of now, my parents won't allow me because its too expensive, and hoping that I can enhace my skills in photography and filming .
Use your phone’s camera! “The best camera is the one that’s with you.” Sure it’ll be good to have a dedicated camera but using your phone’s camera is still fine. Focus on making memories!
i think this type of cameras can make a great work in photos when you dont have enough money to buy other better. Is like people dont even know how good this cameras can be
I'm using this camera too, and I am enjoying your video.
Thank you 🙏
It's a real shame there are no film options that don't use animal products - which is why I love shooting with an old digital camera. You get a similar nostalgic look without the explicit animal cruelty.
I recommend the Sony DSC-TX5 for an option which has that interesting bloom and dreamy soft color profile. The camera itself is quite a novelty too.
Didn’t know animal products were needed in film… that’s interesting
Tx5 was my fav camera back in the day for waterproof functiom in such small body, i still keep 2 TX5
@@nerddenim6039 They're really good, but I was an idiot and lost mine when I moved house a few months ago. I've been on the look out for a replacement ever since :(
You should see the grocery store
The photos are very beautiful I need a camera just like that 🌠
I have the same camera. Its quite good.
In the 2000s we all accepted that these cameras didn't match the quality of film....and it's really true. You can get vsco-esque tones, colors, and contrast, but not the quality of real film and real film prints. And that's fine.
Well, I have a story to tell.. in 2011 when I was 11 years old my dad bought me the cybershot w560, I was too happy! I liked the idea of taking photos and at that time it was a camera with a quality that was crazy, smartphones were still in evolution and they did not have that quality so it was something really impressive and for a small girl even more. To make the story short, two years later I "lost" the camera, or at least I thought I lost it because I never saw it again, and I didn't take my camera anywhere without te presence of my family because I could lose it and at that time the camera had been very expensive. I used it the most to take photos of my family in different events, photos of the garden and when my friends went to visit. I never told my dad anything about the camera, I couldn't and he never asked me about it, but i lived in constant fear, I was terrified every time they talked about technology or stuffs like that, because I was like "he's going to ask me about how I'm doing with the camera" and in these moments in my mind I could only beg a "please don't ask me" because I knew they were going to scold me ugly and well.. I kinda deserved it. I cried a lot, in different days and I felt very bad and I searched the house looking for it, and the worst thing is that I had the box with the accessories and the charger and everything except the camera so I was like how I could have lost it?? Years passed and I forgot about that, in 2018 I moved to another country and when my mother came to visit, she brought me the camera (I know, plot twist) I cried for happiness and for the emotion of seeing it again, but I was very surprised at how she found it, she said that looking for it In my room it was in the closet, apparently in a high area that I never really went up to because I couldn't, so the camera was always in my house. It is a mystery that has no answer, how did the camera get to that part of the closet that I couldn't go to? Because I didnt. Did someone came into my room (siblings) and did it? Or is it that there were goblins hiding things?? The thing is that when she brings me the camera, she brings it to me without the accessories because she told me that she didn't find them, she only brought it with the sd card and the battery. I managed to get the photos back which was very special to me, but I never really set out to buy a charger because I didnt have the resources to do it, so I'm currently here looking for videos to see if it's worth buying a charger and using the camera again. I have always liked photography and I am sure that if I had never "lost" my camera, photography would now be more important in my life, but it was a hobby that I lost because I could not face the fact that I had not appreciated that object so I left it in the past. I know this is very long and I doubt anyone has read it, but if so, thank you. Also, I apppreciated the video a lot because now I feel more convinced to find a way to charge the camera and see if still works! If it does, i'll try to give an update and closure to this story.
Wow! Thanks for sharing! Hope you get into photography again!
These look great
Wow it’s amazing! Can i know exactly what camera is this and where can i buy one?
I got a Lumia 1020 as my side digital camera, them shots look nostalgic asf but they’re extremely sharp
Also I was thinking on buying a similar point and shoot like this, thanks for the vid bro
Really appreciate it! This digicam is 14.1MP which is still relatively sharp
I’d recommend looking for something with a lower MP ✌️
@@nicholaskee Yup, I was thinking on a Canon SD100 or a Sony W800-W830-W510 they are extremely cheap and easy to find where I live so yeah
which settings did u use throughout the video while taking the pictures ! do reply im getting the camera soon and rly wanna know how to take these 2000s core pix haha
This camera hits diferent at night, she got perfect flashes
It sucks that my vintage canon powershot A85 batteries are missing so i can't use it. I hope i can take photos with it one day. Thanks for inspiring me to get into this.
Rechargeable NiMh batteries from third party manufactures are quite cheap online. But you could also use any nonchargeable AA-size alkaline batteries with it, according to the manual of that camera.
I’ve still got my “CoolPix” from 2008!
What aspect ratios does your cam have? I’m looking for a digicam that shoots in 1:1 or 4:5, my cybershot only does 3:2 and 16:9
Hi! I’m getting this camera soon and I was wondering which memory card did you use for it?
Nice :-). I like older digicams too. Have a tiny collection of those cameras and all stil in use.
With greetings from lower Bavaria.
Do you use some program to adjust the photos?
Nice mood.
thank you so much 😍😍😍😍 3:44
Hey i also found that my parents had the same camera but it didn't have the battery so i ordered it from amazon but it says it is not compatible...do u know where can i buy this camera's battery from?
Perfect
Hi there, did you set the iso setting to 400 to make it look this way? Or all auto? And if so, what other settings on the camera did you use? Thanks :)
It’s all auto!
Hey what is the charger for this camera? The charging port. Not for the battery itself. I have the same camera and cannot find the right charger.
In the 2000s I was just a three year old but at the time I was unaware of the digital cameras being that my mom always bought the disposable film camera which at the time I think she didn't have the money to be buying digital cameras but at the same time if I thought about it if she didn't buy disposable film cameras I think she could have gotten the digital cameras back then if she set aside some money for that
got the same camera a few days back from a friend. love it.
Lucky!
Nice vid! Did you edit the pics or did they come out like this straight from the camera?
thank you! the photos are all straight from the camera with no edits.
You used it well bro !
thank you
I wanted one of these so bad in middle school or the nikon one 😂 crazy how time flys😢
How do you config the cámara to take the photos? Iso, diafragma and obturador
photos are so good!!!
It’s my family’s old camera!
This camera is best for music album cover
where do u buy ur digital cameras in singapore? its so hard to find them in physical camera shops☹️
You can find some on carousell or eBay!
would just like to ask if you have a problem with your slider for photos, panorama, and video as well? i have the same camera and i have an issue with it randomly switching between the three modes
yes i have a problem with the slider. it only allows me to put it in the photo mode.
Somehow the flash (e.g. 5:31) adds to the retro. :)
Definitely gives the photos some depth
hi there!! what ISO, aperture, and shutter speed do you use for both day and night pictures?
Its a digicam bro😂 it has prebuilt modes
what were the settings that you used? i have the same camera so i was wondering how you got such good photos
It’s on program mode with auto white balance
How to transfer photos on cellphone?
hello! beautiful photos! may I know in which mode you took the pictures?
In the description
Can you help me? I discovered your video because I'm digging up my cyber shot too. I'm having trouble finding a compatible cable to transfer the photos to the pc, since the exclusive SD card makes things a lot difficult. Can you tell me the model of the cable?
can't exactly find this exact model but I just bought dscs2000 ! hope it would be good ! :)
That’s cool!
Amei esse vídeo
Waaaw🔥 to get vintage results, is this an automatic setting or a camera effect??
automatic! it’s the sensor’s work!
Hello, I have the same camera as you but I couldn't transfer the photos to my phone! How can I transfer it?
What were the setting you used on the night photography
Bro can you make like a tutorial for how to use them perfectly cuz i have a sony w830 and seeing your pictures i wanna use mine to take good pic i tried earlier but didn't got photos as good as you
I pretty much just put the camera in auto mode and take pics. But sure I’ll work on a video!
Nice camera .
Great video !! Which mode did you use ?
Thanks! All shots were in Program Auto mode.
Great video! By the way is there any chance were these shot in St. Petersburg Florida?
Thank you! Nope. All the shots were taken in Singapore
About to buy a Samsung Digimax from Retrospekt to take liminal space photos with 😌
Nice! Hope you enjoy it!
What’s your settings for the film look?
ca you show more pics of the cats please. I really enjoy them.
how would you download the pictures or print them?
i have a dsc-w620 how do i get my photos to my phone ?
nice pics. I am doing the same about to buy a older nicer camera. a lot of cameras at shops have to big of lens and almost 200 and up. I just want a camera that I can carry in my pocket. my older digital cams don't work anymore.
Thank you 🙂
It’s funny that people think these cameras make images that look like film. At the time, to me, they seemed like a huge upgrade in image quality compared to film.
How did u transfer the photos?????
Holaaa que adaptador utilizas para pasar las fotos de la memoria al celular?
I’m just have bought an old Fujifilm FinePix JX550 and I’m carrying it with me everywhere
But to be honest I like the Film Camera more but the amount to spend on films are so expensive to continue shooting which is I bought the digital one although it’s quality is not that good to be compared with film camera (cause I can’t afford the new/high quality one)
Anyway I’m just sharing this cause I think I want someone to share with 😊
thanks for sharing! i totally agree with you
Nice viddd!! How did u upload the pics to ur computer??
Through a card reader!
Which setting do you have yours on? I’m having trouble getting mine to focus
It’s all on auto
do you use your handphone to record this video? i am a bit confuse, do i need an action cam to start a street photography or not
Yea I use my phone for POV shots
