Harking from Guangdong in China, Mutrain is a company that makes digital cameras which, in their words, ‘capture professional-grade photos anytime, anywhere’. And what professional photographer wouldn’t want a 48-megapixel camera complete with a lens, that’s small enough to slip into a jacket pocket? I’d be first in line, especially as the purchase price is so low that it beggars belief. I duly bought one from Amazon and a day later, my joy was complete.
But the joy only lasted for as long as it took me to start using the camera. It very quickly became clear that it’s not one of the best cheap cameras on the market, the best cameras for beginners, or the best cameras for kids.
