Kenko Tokina is a camera and optical devices manufacturer that has been around since the 1950s. From binoculars to microscopes and camera lenses, this brand has grown to be a reliable option for photography enthusiasts and professionals alike.
If you want to capture your holiday festivities in a fun, new way, the Pieni II toy camera series by Kenko Tokina might just be what you need. So small that it fits in the palm of your hand and weighing in at 18 grams, this toy camera uses a MicroSD memory card. All you need to do is long-press the on button to activate the camera, then short-press the same button to start snapping away.
The 1.3-megapixel camera has a focal length of 3.2mm and a fixed aperture of 2.8. The camera body incorporates a built-in magnet, enabling it to be attached to a refrigerator door or other metal surface and used while set to record in the movie mode.
Available in four colors, this latest collaboration with Sanrio includes designs that come with characters Kuromi and My Melody.
Priced at ¥6,580 this camera is available on the official Kenko Tokina online store.

Why would anyone but this camera as now mobile phones are ubiquitous?

Hopefully it makes a loud shutter sound.

Upskirters might buy one.

My suggestion would be to buy a used Canon IXY -- which isn't that much larger -- from a camera shop or Amazon Japan for just a few thousand yen more, and get really impressive photo quality, plus zoom lens and longer battery life.
