Straight off a digicam
Flash on, colors cool, date stamp in the corner: Y2K Digicam gives your photo the feel of an early-2000s point-and-shoot in one tap. It's the digicam trend, made with AI and still you.


Y2K Digicam: 2000s point-and-shoot. Y2K Digicam recreates the feel of a little digital camera from the early 2000s. The AI adds a direct on-camera flash, lets the highlights run slightly bright, gives the colors a cool tint, softens the focus, sprinkles in light noise and prints an orange date stamp in the bottom corner. Only the camera treatment changes: your skin tone, face, body shape and expression are meant to come through untouched, so the result looks like a found memory of you, not of a stranger.
What you get
- Direct on-camera flash with slightly bright highlights
- A cool tint and a soft focus
- Light sensor noise, like a 2000s camera
- An orange date stamp in the bottom corner
- Your face, skin tone, body and expression left as they are

FAQ
Y2K Digicam questions
Is the Y2K Digicam look free?
Yes, on the free plan: Y2K Digicam uses 1 of the 2 free AI credits you get every day. Pro gives you 80 credits a month instead, plus our best-quality AI, every look, no watermark and no ads.
What is the Y2K digicam trend?
It's the comeback of photos that look like they came from a small digital camera around 2003: bright direct flash, cool colors, a little blur and a date in the corner. Y2K Digicam brings that look to a photo you already have.
How is Y2K Digicam different from the Digicam '04 effect?
Digicam '04 is a free retro effect: it runs on your device, works on videos and has a date stamp you can switch on or off. Y2K Digicam uses AI in the cloud to re-create the whole photo, with its stamp drawn into the image.
