An old analog camera that your dad probably used back in the day. Dad cams are most often second-hand and use record-to-tape formats such as Betamax, VHS-C, 8mm, or MiniDV. Cameras that shoot to digital hard drives or memory cards should not be considered dad cams. The grainy, nostalgic, and perhaps crappy quality of this type of film had a resurgence in popularity from 2015 onward, particularly in r&b and hip-hop music videos. Now, you'll often find dad cam worked into high-budget commercials, movies, television shows, and more.
