S A Y, “CHEESE!” We may remember taking a little Kodak or FujiFilm disposable camera with us to our field trip in the first grade. Like many things from the past, film cameras are making a comeback. YouTuber David Dobrik created his Instagram @davidsdisposable for his film photos in mid-2019 and since then, has influenced a lot of today's generation to purchase their own disposable film cameras. If you want to expand your film collection and practice your film photography skills, here are five great cameras to start off with.
KODAK M35
If you’re looking for something on the simple side similar to the Kodak disposable cameras, the Kodak M35 film camera would work great. With the simple functions of flash and taking the picture that anyone can learn quickly, this camera can run from $20 to $40. For this camera, you can use any 35mm film from Kodak Gold to Fujifilm Fujicolor Superia 35mm film. In order to get the photos, you would have to go to either your local Walmart or find an online film developing company like Darkroom to get your film developed.
INSTAX MINI 11
Some people prefer the look of polaroid pictures. For a simple approach to this type of film, the Instax Mini 11 is great especially for more personal use and everyday memories. It’s a great camera for the younger crowd taking their first steps into photography and who are wanting to learn more about film cameras.
