I have one of these print cameras and I have let family use it. They are super fun, but the novelty wears thin. They have a ton of potential, but they need
- better dithering algorithms
- a bit more dynamic range, at least enough to print
- a basic builtin flash (some have this)
- selfie mirror or mode (a few have this)
- custom overlays
- more special effects like fisheye, double exposure, etc
- a rewind to double print
- screen protector for kids
- closer focusing distance kids can't even do selfies with it
- better ergonomics even for kids
- wide/extra long printing for panoramas or collages
- more insane designs rather than a colored rectangle
Kenko was on to something for an adult version, but it was trash. Even the chink $30 ones were better. No one was going to pay $100 bucks for worse.
