I think, in all honesty, this camera is pretty much perfect for what it is. It's cost efficient, the brown/yellow models are very fan-servicey in their retro design, it's light, it's cheap, it's compact, it's fun. I'll definitely buy one.

@ProdEnraged sure, most of nikons entry level slrs from the 80s and 90s, like the f50 f55 f60 etc f601. The equivalent canon cameras as well, like the eos 5000 1000 300 etc. But there are uncountably many from all different companies. Minolta maxxum 500si, dynax 500 super, Revue sc3, praktica tl 1000. Those are some specific ones, but just typing in retro camera or slr depending on what you're looking for will give a flood of results for less than 10 bucks. I have had the odd one or two that didn't work fully, but for the price that's fine with me.

One of my childhood cameras was a chaika, which also had narrow frames and could take 72 frames with a 36-frame film. At that time, slides were more popular, because you could get a relatively large picture on the wall in the 80's.This is an interesting camera, some pictures alone can't tell if the shadows were drawn dynamically in a photo studio, or if such a cheap camera really has such relatively good optics

Looking at the posted comments, I think mine is likely very much off the topic. But then I decided to go ahead anyway. My first camera was an inherited 6 by 9 cm bellows one, for which I don't recall any other relevant data. Then at some point I got non-remarkable 36 mm camera and advanced to color films, tentatively at first, due to cost considerations. Eventually I progressed to buying a Canon Pellix system camera all the way until the First Kodak digital one caught my attention. The main benefit was size (weight) and built in macro capability, meaning less lenses to carry. From there I proceeded through a couple of Nikon cameras to another oddball Canon, model TX-1. That is really tiny, only my palm size, but has unbelievable set of capabilities, including my first video. Also, not to forget a 10:1 optical zoom plus 20:1 digital "zoom", and a fantastic macro. It was evidently too expensive ( $650 )for the mushrooming digicamera markets, and Canon obsoleted it after just the first production run. Learning about that, I ordered a second unit for a spare, and luckily got it. Presently I use mostly my phone and my iPad Mini, but in the meantime have had a couple of Canon EOS5 cameras. And I almost forgot -- early on, I also used a Minolta Pocket camera. Actually I still have all these cameras, except the very earliest 2, as well as the Kodak digital one, which have been lost one way or other. Anybody else heard of the Canon Pellix? Or about the TX-1?

It's a lot of fun. I have a nice Olympus Pen F and all and love shooting with that but when I'm using that I want to carry my additional lenses around for options. Meanwhile I can just throw this in the bag when I'm not planning on a big photoshoot and I'd be a lot less sad if I somehow lost or broke it compared to the Pen F. It punches above cheap/disposable cameras for sure, and the pics are more than enough for social media. Take dual frame diptychs or just get a lot of mileage out of your 36 exp roll, it's WAY easier to recommend this over the Ilford Sprite/Kodak M35/Yashica MF-1. Reto also makes a love letter to the Vivtar Ultrawide and Slim that's even cheaper around 20-30 bucks if you want a super compact in the same vein but with wide angle.

When the roll of 35mm film is more than 5$ a pop, if you even able to find one today, we have some old film close to expiration date in one obscure photo-enthusiasts club's shop, or the internet where it is just long expired films. It is not really cost-time efficient. You can buy some cheap Canon D1100 or such for like 30$ + some cheap planar-like lens, and get pretty much the same photos by just shooting in 2-3 stops lower exposure and then do a "compensating exposure" in RAW-editing software(I use RPP for mac, it does a brilliant job on that for just 14$). And it's shutter is good for a few thousands of shots if heavily used already.
