A finger-sized camera with a resolution that wouldn’t hold a candle to your average smartphone is selling out at official stockists in New Zealand.

The Chamera — a nostalgic collaboration with Reto that nods to Kodak’s first single-use cameras of the ’80s — comes in seven colours (plus one “secret edition”) and clips onto belt loops or bags like a fashion accessory.

The secret edition of the Charmera has a transparent shell.
