"Inside the Tank is a ½.8-inch sensor that can capture 12-megapixel images with a "nostalgic photographic character," the company says. You can push the photo resolution up to 36 megapixels if you're okay with upscaling, while the camera's video capabilities max out at 4K / 30fps. There's also auto-focus capabilities and a built-in flash, along with features like exposure compensation, ISO adjustments up to 6,400, various white balance options, four different metering modes, and 11 photo filters to choose from."
"It's available for preorder now through the company's online store for 798 HKD, or just over $100 US, and expected to start shipping around March 27th. On the back of the camera, you'll find a 3-inch preview screen. Its resolution is a paltry 640 x 360, but it does flip up 180-degrees so you can position it facing forward for framing selfies or videos."
