They’ve taken on the questionable Y2K trends of low-rise jeans and Uggs – and now Generation-Z is turning its attention to old digital cameras from the early 2000s.<\/p>\n
You remember the ones – the blurry photos, ugly metal camera frames with the wrist strap and the impossibility of instantly editing each photo to be Instagram-perfect. <\/p>\n
That’s exactly what’s trending with the younger generation who are rebelling against the sleek, edited photos on their iPhones to seek out more authenticity in their pictures. <\/p>\n
Gen-Z favorite’s app, TikTok, has more than 184million views featuring the hashtag #digitalcamera, and fashion’s favorite magazine, Vogue, has even sported the device in its glossy pages. <\/p>\n
Anthony Tabarez, 18, brought his Olympus FE-230 – a camera made in 2007 – to prom to snap pictures of him and his friends waving their arms on the dance floor and pulling out their best moves. <\/p>\n
Tabarez finds digital cameras ‘more exciting’ than snapping photos on his smartphone. <\/p>\n
