The GameBoy Camera is a 4 bit greyscale camera made by Nintendo in 1998. It has a resolution of 0.017 megapixels. Images can be manipulated with a variety of "magic" filters before they are captured.
It offers the photographer a different way of looking at the world…distilling it down to shapes and shading which show the essence of the image. Most of all, it is fun to use. I hope you find this information useful.
