This camera is as straightforward as it gets. A clone of the Vivitar Ultra Wide and Slim, which is now going for rather absurd amounts on ebay, it is a no-control, pop-your-film-in-and-shoot piece of plastic. I purchased it because I heard it called the "poor man's LC-A." I am poor, and would love an LC-A, so there you have it.
One thing to note is that the rubberized finish on these Superheadz models is not very durable. After a couple weeks in my purse, the corners are already shiny black plastic where the coating has rubbed off.
Other than that, expect a cheapo plastic camera built for fun, and you will not be disappointed!

I have been enjoying this little thing. I cannot wait to get my film developed!
Be careful, though!
I wouldn't suggest using any more exposures than 24 because the stress on the film advance can break easily.
I gave it 4 stars because I've already seen some wear-and-tear (the material is peeling off) on the camera and it's only been 2 weeks.
Best Deals for Black Slim Devil (Wide Angle Lens) Camera
I received this as a gift. Probably one of the best I've ever gotten! It's great for beginners or anyone interested in film. I always get great colors and vignetting. Just be warned: make sure your fingers are out of the way! Probably 1/4th of all my pictures catch my finger tips too... sigh. Viewfinder isn't completely accurate.
Honest reviews on Black Slim Devil (Wide Angle Lens) Camera
I received the Black Slim Devil today and shot a few test rolls of Kodak UltraMax 400, then ran them over to Costco's for processing and scanning to DVD. The first roll I shot was inside with very poor results. NOTE TO SELF: In the future avoid dimly lit locations. Only 5 images were salvageable. The remaining two rolls were shot outside with outstanding results; vivid colors, modest vignetting, great wide angles, and oddly creative closeups. Be mindful of your finger placement. Half of the images have one or more of my digits in them and even some of those are keepers. I prefer the images from this toy camera over those I've shot with the Holga HL-C lens I've use on my old Canon 20D.
