This (3 inch high) Rolleiflex digital camera is a mostly faithful digital incarnation of the famous and retro-cool Rolleiflex 2.8F. You hold it vertically at around chest level to take pictures, as the viewfinder is on the top of the camera rather than at the back.

However it’s only 3mp square format, with controls that are completely automatic except for the hand crank, which “prepares” the camera for the next shot. The viewfinder is a 1.1 inch TFT and it takes miniSD cards.

It’s not intended to be a full-featured digital camera, [but] it takes good pictures and is an attention-getter and conversation piece.”

Available for $400 about £210
