Godox C100: The camera that looks like an iPod
The camera market has become somewhat boring. For years, new cameras have been very similar, almost perfect, and expensive. The Godox C100 is the complete opposite.
The Godox C100 has nothing in common with other cameras. Outwardly, it looks more like an old iPod than a camera. It's cheap and its image quality is far from perfect. I'd guess it's webcam-level.
A transparent disc that lets 50 percent of the light through serves as the viewfinder. Similar to an SLR camera, the viewfinder displays information such as battery level or exposure parameters. This means the camera should also be suitable as a light meter for old analog cameras. It is obviously less suitable for selfies.
The camera weighs only 65 grams. Photos are stored on a microSD card with a maximum of 128 GB. Technical specifications such as resolution, sensor size or aperture are unknown. The device costs 199 yuan in China, which would be about 23.60 Swiss francs or 25.70 euros. However, it will cost more here - on Aliexpress there are offers for 40 to 50 Swiss francs. Godox mainly produces flash and lighting equipment; this is the Chinese manufacturer's first camera.
My interest in IT and writing landed me in tech journalism early on (2000). I want to know how we can use technology without being used. Outside of the office, I’m a keen musician who makes up for lacking talent with excessive enthusiasm.
