A film shop in Amsterdam is building a compact camera with an autofocus similar to iPhones

The Analogue aF-1 camera against a black background.

Analogue Shop, a film store based in Amsterdam, Netherlands, started when two hobbyist photographers wanted to create a place to slow down in a digital world. Now, five years later, the shop is creating its own film camera. The Analogue aF-1 is an upcoming compact point-and-shoot film camera with a built-in 35mm f/2.8 lens.

The company says that the Analogue aF-1 is inspired by cameras like the Olympus Mju series, Yashica T, Minolta Riva, and Pentax Espio, as well as taking some inspiration from Contax point-and-shoots. The compact camera is designed to use one-handed and has a simple boxy design, with a front cover that slides over the lens. It’s also IPX4 splash resistant.
