Although we're still a few days out, Black Friday deals are already in full swing and so far, we've seen amazing discounts on action cameras, drones, and even instant cameras. This week is one of the best times of the year to save on tech you've been eyeing up. If you're looking for a new camera, I'm here to tell you to ditch the screen and check these cams out instead.
Camp Snap, the company behind the screen-free digital and video cameras, has made quite a name for itself. Its products have gone viral on social media, namely TikTok, due to their screen-free nature that lets you live in the moment. I've personally tested two out of three of its cameras and I can vouch for the fact that they excel at what they set out to do.
This week is the best time to buy a Camp Snap camera as the brand is hosting its "biggest BFCM sale" yet. The Camp Snap Screen-Free digital camera is available for just $59 / £46 and it takes great, film-style photos. If you want a video camera inspired by the 1960s' Super 8s, the Camp Snap CS-8 is down to $179 / £138. And there's one more camera on sale. All three can be bought direct from Camp Snap's online store.
Read on to find out why these deals make these cameras absolute steals this holiday season! For more savings, check out our Black Friday deals live blog.

Similar to the camera mentioned above, the Camp Snap CS-Pro doesn't feature a screen so that you can stay in the moment and view your photos only when you're at your desk. This camera features a 16MP lens and a four filter dial to help you get more creative. Additionally, a single charge can capture 500 photos. Its design is inspired by classic rangefinders, so it looks stunning.

If you want a no-frills video camera with stripped-back controls, the Camp Snap CS-8 is the way to go. Reasonably priced and ridiculously easy to use, the CS-8 records 2.7K video at 30fps/18fps, and it features a few color profiles that make video look very nostalgic. It's inspired by Super 8 cameras from the 1960s, and its video quality reminds me of the home videos my parents captured of my brother and I growing up.
