The I’m Back Roll looks like a roll of film, but the upcoming gadget actually gives old film cameras the ability to shoot 26.1MP digital images. Now, the gadget’s crowd-funding campaign has been so successful that the conversion kit can even add a digital touchscreen to retro cameras.
The I’m Back Roll crams an APS-C sensor, digital storage, and a battery into what looks like an outstretched roll of 35mm film. The gadget’s goal is to give retro film cameras the ability to shoot digital, including wireless transfers to a smartphone – and yes, cameras can revert back to film when wanted too.
