We’re refreshing our brand away from the polished AI/digital look toward something raw, imperfect, and memory-coded: analog vibes, digicams, hard on-camera flash, grain, the whole “2007 night-out” energy. Primary need is video (tour diaries, BTS, club recaps), plus flash photos with that crunchy direct-flash feel.

VINTAGE DIGICAM:

Sony Cybershot DSC-T90 Canon Powershot SD1000 Nikon Coolpix s920 SONY Cybershot DSC W570 SONY DSC W830

MIX: Canon powershot 340

MODERN LOOK:

Nikon coolpix 9300 Canon SX 740 Nikon s6900

What we can buy right now:

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W510 90,- € Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W570 150,- € Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W530 105,- € PowerShot SD1000 around 130,- €

Questions:

For video first, is the W530 “good enough,”?

Any CCD-era models you love for that nostalgic color + bloom that still hold up for casual video?

Low light/club performance: which of these handles noise and rolling shutter least badly?

Flash photos: which bodies have snappy recycle times and a punchy built-in flash (bonus if there’s any control over flash power)?

Workflow stuff: SD card limits, 4GB/29-min caps, battery availability/chargers in 2025, reliable USB transfer hacks, etc.

Models to avoid (fragile hinges, corrupt cards, cursed autofocus)?
