When you've come so far, sometimes the only place left to go is backwards.

In a world where 20 mega pixel, mammoth, digital images with crystal clear quality and fully automatic settings is the norm, it seems there is more than just a passing nostalgia associated with retro style 110 film and 8mm home movies. A growing trend is developing towards toy cameras, designed to take unpredictable images with the character and raw qualities of these older film technologies.

Now introduce the the Digital Harinezumi, a new camera from Superheadz. Superheadz is a company made famous for their fantastic toy cameras, but now they have leaped into the market with a digital camera, an area as yet unexplored by (and somewhat contradictory to) toy camera makers.

Cleverly designed, the palm sized camera takes both images and video, and captures the mystical feeling of older-style cameras. The size and quality of the images makes it perfect for use as a journal-like device, allowing you to capture a days events and instilling a nostalgic atmosphere that the mind may ordinarily invoke.
