Custom Camera Set
Design your own camera: upload artwork for the front and back, save, and add to cart. Made to order, produced in 5 to 7 working days.
+ Specs & what's in the box
- 20MP digital photos, saved straight to an SD card
- Solid brass lens ring, standard on every Paper Shoot case
- Stone-paper case printed with your own artwork or photo on the front and back. Stone paper is a tree-free material made mostly from mineral powder
- Includes two effect lenses: wide-angle for more of the scene, macro for close-up details
- 4 film-inspired tones built in: Color, Black & White, Sepia, Blue. Add filter cards for more: the 4-card set brings you to 20, and all 10 cards unlock 44
- No screen, no phone app. Two short beeps and a shutter click confirm each shot
- 2 AAA rechargeable batteries, around 300 to 500 shots per charge. Charge via USB-C, or swap in a fresh set
- Transfer via USB-C or SD card. Video and time-lapse built in: both run on USB-C power, or add the Recording expansion card to shoot them on batteries alone
In the box: camera board, your custom-printed case, wide-angle lens, macro lens, 8GB SD card, 2 AAA rechargeable batteries, USB-C cable or adapter. Packed in a premium gift box, ready to give.

+ Who it's for
For one-of-a-kind gifts and keepsakes: a wedding, a birthday, a pet, a favorite photo, or your own artwork. Nobody else will carry the same camera.
Like every Paper Shoot, it's a camera you carry every day and keep for years. Swap the case, add filter cards, and replace the rechargeable batteries instead of replacing the camera.
+ Good to know
- Made to order. Each custom camera is produced within 5 to 7 working days after you order (excluding holidays), then shipped. Delivery time depends on your shipping method and country, so order early for gifts
- Custom cameras can't be returned. If anything isn't working right, contact service@papershoot.com and we'll help you troubleshoot or send a replacement
- Shoots the light that's there. There's no built-in flash, so night photos keep the mood of neon, candlelight, and stage lights. In very dark spots, add the optional screw-on Ring of Light for soft, even light

- Ordering from outside the US? We ship worldwide. For most countries, duties and taxes are included or prepaid at checkout, so there's nothing extra to pay when your package arrives

FAQ
Is the image quality actually good?
Yes — and intentionally so.
Paper Shoot uses a real digital sensor and carefully tuned optics to create photos that feel soft, warm, and natural, rather than overly sharp or over-processed like a phone.
It’s not trying to win a spec race — it’s designed to capture texture, light, and mood in a way that feels more like film than a screenshot.If you’re expecting clinical sharpness, this isn’t that camera.
If you want photos that feel human and timeless, it is.
No screen? How do I know if I actually got the shot?
You don’t — and that’s the point.
Paper Shoot is designed to remove constant checking, retakes, and distractions. You press the shutter, stay in the moment, and discover the photos later.
Most users find this surprisingly freeing — fewer photos, but more meaningful ones. You trust the moment instead of managing it.
Why not just use a filter on my phone?
Because filters imitate a look after the photo is taken.
Paper Shoot captures its look in-camera, using real light, a dedicated sensor, and carefully tuned optics.
There’s no app, no presets, and no editing pipeline.
What you see later isn’t a simulation — it’s what the camera actually captured. More importantly, using a separate camera changes how you shoot.
No notifications. No checking. Just the moment.
Does it work indoors or at night?
Yes, within reason.
Paper Shoot performs best in natural daylight, window light, and well-lit indoor spaces.
In low light or at night, photos will appear darker and more atmospheric — closer to film than to night-mode phone photography.
This is a creative choice, not a limitation. If you want a softer, moodier look, it works beautifully.
How long does the battery last?
Two fully charged rechargeable AAA batteries delivers approximately 300–500 photos, depending on usage.
Using standard AAA rechargeable means:
- Easy to replace or carry spares
- Simple to recharge anywhere
- No proprietary batteries
Reliable, travel-friendly, and low-stress.
Why is it priced higher than cheap cameras?
Because Paper Shoot isn’t designed to be disposable. Cheap cameras often use low-quality components and are meant to be replaced after a short time.
Paper Shoot is built with a real digital sensor, durable materials, and a modular system that lets you change shells, add features, and keep using the same camera for years.
You’re not paying for specs — you’re paying for intentional design, longevity, and a different way of photographing everyday life.
What’s the difference between built-in tones and filter cards?
Built-in tones are the 4 base looks already inside the camera. Filter cards are physical add-ons—like swapping film stocks—to unlock more looks and playful effects.
- Built-in tones: switch the basics anytime—no card needed.
- Filter cards: swap a card to change the look; some cards can also create fun effects (photobooth-style sequences, double exposures).
Which should I use?
- Fast, everyday shooting → Built-in tones
- More variety / special effects → Filter cards
