ReFrame – The EPaper Camera | Hacker News

Hacker News debated ReFrame, an open-source ePaper camera that saves one photo at a time and keeps the image visible even after power-off.

The camera has a 15-second development time and no live preview, so users must shoot more deliberately.

Commenters compared it to a digital Polaroid, with some seeing the limits as a feature and others as a gimmick.

The discussion reflected wider interest in slower, less distracting devices for photography and kid-friendly use.
