# Overview

Pro cameras, a news camera and instant polaroids your players hold, hang and pin to boards.

Every camera a city needs in one resource: police, civilian and Weazel News cameras with a real viewfinder, SD cards and printers, and an instant camera whose shots develop on screen and come out as polaroids players hold, show, give, hang on walls and pin to cork boards.

It hosts its own photos and needs no phone script and no custom props.

## Features

* **A real viewfinder.** Zoom from 24 to 200 mm, depth of field with focus lock, roll, grid and timer. Flash and torch light the shot.
* **12 colour looks and 5 effects,** with exposure, contrast, warmth and grain.
* **The news, on the shot.** The Weazel News camera prints its lower third into every frame: headline, street and time. Reporters edit the headline from the camera.
* **SD cards** with 24 photos: eject, swap, delete and format.
* **Printing** at any printer prop, with copies and an optional price. Printed photos are items: hold them up, write on the back, show people nearby.
* **Instant camera.** The shot develops on screen while you pick the filter, frame colour, date stamp, title and note.
* **Polaroids** you hold, turn over, show, give and hang on walls.
* **Cork boards** with a drag-and-drop pin editor. Boards and hung photos stay up after a restart until their owner or staff take them down.
* **Camera per job:** police, civilian and news cameras can each be limited to the jobs you choose.
