The Vivitar Ultra Wide and Slim is a wonderful little plastic toy camera. At first glance, it looks like any other $2 junk shoppe camera, but the devil is in the details.
The UW&S has a 22mm lens – that’s wider than any DSLR zoom or digital point and shoot. Normally, to get that wide, you’d need to get a semi-pro DSLR lens!
If you like things wide, nay, ultra wide, the camera to bring with you is the Vivitar Ultra Wide & Slim. This simple point & shoot plastic camera brings the wide, wide world of a 22mm field of view to you in a small package perfect for your pocket. Its fixed f/11 aperture assures you of incredible depth of field and makes sure everything, front and back, is in focus. Make sure to shoot mostly in the sun though: for greater contrast and even incredible flares!
