We recommend cool cameras from FujiFilm, Lomography, and Akaso.
Options include a waterproof action camera, a retro design option, and an instant cam.
Its 20MP Sony sensor lets you record crisp 4K footage at 24fps and full-HD videos at 60fps.

you’re free to also shoot 20MP still images with up to 5x zoom.
Wi-Fi and HDMI are included for connectivity and I/O.
However, there’s a lot more to it than just good looks.

This is an old-school 35mm film camera you must first “build” to use.
Yep, you read that right!
Lomography Konstruktor F uses a twin-lens reflex viewfinder and basic manual controls for adjusting exposure and focus.

Oh, and it doesn’t need a battery to work.
How awesome is that!
Our vote goes to Fujifilm’s Instax Square SQ6.
Boasting a stylish two-tone design, it lets you shoot beautiful square photos.
The camera features a retractable front lens, a “selfie mirror,” and a built-in LED flash.
Video abilities
Not all compact cameras are excellent at video recording.
