Cameras have come a long way over the years, and you no longer need to spend a fortune to get great photos in most cases. But how little can you get away with spending? I visit Snowdonia National park with the cheapest camera I could find on Amazon in this video, to see if a camera that has 18 megapixels and costs less than a t-shirt can deliver good results!

I agree. The cheap camera has much better colors than the pixel and over all does not look bad. The down side is the cheap camera has a massive crop, it is over exposed, the clouds and sky are washed out, everything looks pulled in with less depth, and if you look at the grass close up the detail is a lot lower. Somehow I still think the cheap camera looks better over all.

What has prompted me to comment is that I am hugely jealous of the fact you are moving to somewhere near the Ogwen Valley. I have holidayed there for about 20 years, staying at Tai Neweddion which is on the old coach road. I've got a bit of a family connection to the area, as my grandmother was born and lived in Tregarth. Her father was a quarryman who worked at the Penrhyn Quarry (Are you going to do a video on the Zip wire??). I hope you get the house, I think you and Emily will love it there. Stay safe.:)

I take so many "Pic stops" when walking/cycling that it seems quite fitting as a term.

I thought the pictures looked pretty good on my computer monitor (~16" diagonal and an older screen). Maybe enlarged the pictures are crap but the camera appears to be better than nothing. I liked the test pics better than those by the cell phone. The pictures might be good for Instagram or similar online websites. Point and shoot (not a horrifying experience to one who didn't get into digital until I was +40 years old); don't need film (or the expense of processing that); don't know about battery life or if it's easy to find extra batteries; and almost zero control over how the camera sees (the macros weren't great, but I have trouble with flower pics using a better camera). I don't think it was a waste of money (it could be a tax write off, too!). It could be used as a gift after all.

I have tried to shoot this kind of camera in lower pixel settings, smaller picture will come back better results. I always think large pixels is only designed if you need the photo comes large, as displayed on a big big screen, not on a normal computer screen, and usually a smaller picture with much smaller size that only to be seen on a computer screen or smaller prints will do just as fine, have more depth of view, more details, more 3-D, because there are less noise between the dense pixels.

The difference is one is $500 and the other is $1000 which at that price you can buy the G9

As someone who enjoys shooting video on a Digital8 Camcorder as well as with my Sony FX3 and others, this little photo camera is honestly pretty cool. All cameras are kinda cool, photo- / videography is fun and great in general. People in the past would be crazy about having the ability to take nice looking images in such a compact and affordable format. Every camera has it's unique charm and character. Phones can be kind of meh, but it really comes down to putting more thought into the images you take on them - framing, lighting, ISO, colours, f-Stop, etc. can be manually adjusted and it's the job of the photographer to decide. This reminds me of the experiment where they compared a proper analogue camera with a disposable one and the film came out looking unique and each camera had it's own character. You could cut a hole into a box, put a lens on it and burn the image on some special paper and if you put thought into it, it can come out great.

I recently bought a collection of old digital cameras from ebay and included was the 21MP Adberg Best camera. Looks identical to this one. It can be easily found on alibaba and the camera is 5 megapixel. It has a fixed aperture with the ISO and shutter speed varying. It often goes to quite a slow shutter speed, 50, 80 etc so you have to hold it very steady to get focused shots. It's a fixed focus lense too with a macro physical switch. Obviously it's a complete waste of time using any resolution above 5MP. It slows the camera down as it interpolates the image and stores it, so you are wasting storage space, time and of course battery life. The feature set is limited, it's a very basic camera. However it has to be said although there is a tendency for many shots to be ruined because of the slow shutter speed, in good light I've been reasonably impressed with the camera's images. The thing is though in collection of camera's I got a basic 3MP Kodak camera without optical zoom but with variable aperture and a wider ISO and shutter range and that camera produces more consistent images of slightly better quality. It's a better camera for stills although massively inferior for video. If you think about we can buy compact cameras now that came out in 2005-2012 for as little as £5 even though they were maybe retailing at £150 or more back then. £30 today taking inflation in reverse is perhaps £15 or so back then, so you are comparing a new £15 camera to a £150 camera. Even allowing for technology moving on that is still a huge gulf in cost. I should point out on alibaba the camera is clearly described as a children's camera or student's camera. The manufacturer has no illusion about the camera quality but obviously the people selling them on Amazon may have other ideas.

An inexpensive but working camera can teach a youngster how to think like a photographer. Not heavy thought yet, but it will encourage her to notice her surroundings. A digital camera won't limit the number of pictures she can take (unlike a film camera, though they do teach one to be frugal). Her only limits will be the battery (so get extras) and the memory card. Oh, and her interest and focus, being young and having the world to explore. What fun!

The images from this camera look better than those from the Pixel 2. I prefer its colors, too.

That chipset and sensor started as an MP4 player with camera. I think you can still find them around. Very common in south America due to our lack of budget hahaha. Eventually it was turned into the cheapest camera.

I really liked the first image, because it doesn’t look so crazy hdr-like and has a nice contrast and colors, almost like 35mm film. I know it blew the highlights but I like it. It kinda looks like a phone-shot edited with a warm vsco filter. So yes, off to amazon I guess 🚀

Funny, it looks like the camera my wife got at Aldi many years ago. She still tries to use it, but the battery is always dead when she reaches for it. Takes terrible photos also, and only 12mp. Luckily, she switched to her smartphone and it does much better. I will stick with my 4 year old Lumix ZS70 (20x opt zoom, 20mp, EVF) for a point a shoot when I am not bringing my G9 and with that I only take photos at 5m pixels (just for the web). I like the option of more megapixels (off the Italian coast and such), but rarely use them.

That cameras battery looks like the batteries that were in the old Nokia phones! I'd love to see you trying out a bridge camera like the P950 or P1000.

It probably is. I remembered them from my contour video camera. Or at least they look like them.

I bought a 5 megapiel Casio xilim with a 5x Pentax lens used for £20. Its black and perfect. I had one back in 2004 and had it stolen. I missed it so I bought it again 2 weeks ago and am very happy.

Wales you say, we rented a cottage in Wales and we heard from more than one that you don’t go to Wales for the fine weather. It rained every second day 😁 We passed Snowdownia on our way to Anglesey. I realize now that we should have spent some day in the national park on our way. Well next time then.

I'm actually interested in this camera even though you said it's rubbish. Could you kindly share some of the the SOOC images? Thank you, James.

for instagram is might be enough! :D USB charging is a huge bonus! That's the feature my beloved camera lacks (G80)

From what I seen the photos were better than the pixel 2, at least uncropped, I expected much worse resaults honestly

Cloudy and rainy for pretty much any time of the year. Though you do get dry spells, they're unpredictable. There is no dry season. But at least in summer the rain is warmer.

The dynamic range is limited but it certainly does function... but yes the sensor vs lens issue is its greatest weakness.

I guess it's the digital version of a Holga, although your images are lacking light leaks and vignetting. Both a Holga or a 5-roll pack of 120 film cost more than this camera.

James I bought a Victure AC400 action camera with underwater housing off Amazon for $15.00 hardly ever use it's fine wide angle but crap if you zoom in in oh it's 14 MEGAPIXEL with a app to control it off your smartphone. No way does compare to my smartphone in pictures or video maybe good for scuba diving as the housing is rated for 100 ft
