What it is

Your phone shoots video.
This shoots memories.

Phones are too good. Every video looks the same — clean, sharp, soulless. The Postcard Cam is the opposite of that. It's small enough to lose, cheap enough to drop, and good enough to make tonight feel like 1999.

01
Tiny.
Lives on your keys.

45mm cube, 28g. Lanyard hole on the side. Clips to your bag, your belt loop, your favorite jacket. You'll forget it's there until you press record.

02
Lo-fi by
design.

1080p video with that crunchy, dreamy, grainy look modern phones spend $1,000+ trying to fake. Six color filters — primary, cool, warm, B&W, retro, fresh. One-tap record. No menus.

03
Battery dock
included.

Comes with the power-bank dock — over 10 hours of recording on a single charge. USB-C in. Slot for any microSD up to 256GB. Built-in flash for after dark.

Postcard Cam vs your iPhone

Why not just
use your phone?

Because clean, 4K, cinema-grade footage of your friend's birthday isn't a memory — it's a Netflix B-roll. Here's what's different.

Your phone
does too much
  • HDR, computational, glossy — feels like an ad
  • You'll spend 4 minutes picking a filter, miss the moment
  • Mixed in with 80,000 other photos in your Camera Roll
  • Stops you from being present — you're staring at a screen
  • Notifications pop up mid-recording
  • Costs $1,000+
Postcard Cam
does one thing
  • Real lens, real sensor, real grain — feels like a memory
  • One button. Hit it. Done.
  • Lives on its own SD card — a real, separate archive
  • No screen distraction. You watch the moment, not a feed.
  • No apps. No DMs. No interruptions.
  • Starts at $59

FAQ

Questions you
probably have.

Do I need an SD card to use it?
Yes — the camera needs a microSD card to record video and photos. You can grab one from us with your order (8GB to 64GB), or use any microSD card you already have up to 256GB.
How much video fits on a card?
Rough math at 1080p: 8GB ≈ 1 hour. 16GB ≈ 2 hours. 32GB ≈ 4 hours. 64GB ≈ 8 hours. Loop recording overwrites the oldest clip when the card is full, so you can record forever.
How long does the battery last?
The camera body itself runs about 30 minutes of continuous recording. The included power-bank dock brings total runtime to roughly 10 hours. Recharges over USB-C in about an hour.
Is the video actually grainy like the ads?
Yes. That's the whole point — it's a tiny CMOS sensor with no post-processing, no HDR, no AI smoothing. The lo-fi look is real and straight off the card.
Can I use it as a webcam or for content?
Yep — plug into your computer with USB-C and it works as a basic webcam. People are using it for Twitch streams, livestreams, and as a B-cam for nostalgic-cut social content.
Is the Postcard Cam waterproof?
It's not rated waterproof — keep it out of rain and the pool. The included velvet pouch will protect it in a backpack or beach bag. We recommend treating it like a small electronic, which it is.
Shipping & returns?
Free US shipping, ships within 24 hours of order. Typical delivery 5–9 business days. 30-day money-back guarantee — if you don't love it, send it back to North Mildred for a full refund.
What's in the box again?
Camera body, power-bank dock, USB-C cable, wrist lanyard, velvet pouch, quick-start card. If you select an SD card option at checkout, your card comes pre-installed and ready to record.
