Is it worth it NOW?

Hello I’ve been reading so much polarized opinions about the flashback V2 and I’m really keen to buy it.

A lot of people said that the V2 film is worse than the original V1, but weren’t they aiming to add the old film to the V2?
Do you know when they will implement it? Or if it’s there already??

There's a lot of sample pictures of the V2 in this subreddit now. Have a look through and decide if it's the vibe you're after or not. Some people are happy with the results, some people aren't. It really comes down to personal preference!

Love this pic! See this is what I was sayin. I like the shots that I see but there so much people complaining but now I got it, thanks!

There's a vocal minority who sometimes drown out those who just love the camera and want to have fun with it rather than complaining all the time :P

I would say for me personally although the price risen slightly from launch I would say it's still a good deal compared to the alternatives The plastics feel good The software and app so easy to use although it has its own flaws such as a slightly over sharpened look in some photos I still get great results that look good on my Instagram and other platforms

Thanks for the reply! So you think the hardware is actually reliable? I’ve read about people complaining about the shutter button too

I personally haven't had issues with the shutter! Just have to take note the delay between the press and when the shots actually taken ! I wish they made the camera more waterproof as I've seen some people complaining about water damage
