KODAK FunSaver 35mm Single Use Camera

Product Information

Disposable cameras are so much fun to use and the photos turn out so great, but there’s a problem with using disposable cameras - where do you go to get a disposable camera developed? Most people end up just throwing their cameras in a draw for a few moths, or a few years, and some just never get them developed at all. How tragic is that!! In this blog post, we are going to focus on help you getting those images out of that camera and on to your phone, social media, or printed and in your photo album! Perfect if you want to shoot film for the first time. Also a great take-anywhere camera you don’t have to worry about. Will work equally well outside or inside.

We return your negatives to you so you can scan and print from them as much as you like in the future Camera comes with a single AA battery installed and the charge will last much longer than shooting the 27 pictures with flash. Considering that and the plastic body, the camera isn’t eco-friendly. The DarkRoom will send them to a recycling facility to recover much of the materialsSeveral larger cities have film developing labs locally, a simple Google search will help you to locate any labs that might be nearby. Don’t let those disposables just sit around! Film type and exposures: I think Kodak uses 24 exposure 800 ‘max’ type, which is no longer available as a stand alone film, however, when loading in a darkroom as they do when making the camera yields 27 images. You can get 27 images on any roll of 24 as long as you can load the camera yourself in the dark and do not have to advance it to the first shot mark; however, with motorized auto loading cameras, you probably won’t get any more than 25. The FunSaver comes in two varieties: a standard 27-shot version and a bumper 39-shot model (or, as Kodak phrases it, 27 with 12 extra). The 39-shot version will usually offer you better per-shot value and so is definitely worth keeping an eye out for.

There’s a shutter button, a flash button, and an advance wheel. The camera is limited to a single shutter speed of 1/100th of a second, loaded up with Kodak 800 speed film, exposed through a fixed focus 30mm f/10 lens. There’s no way to adjust exposure besides holding down the flash button and hoping for the best in low light. There isn’t anything particularly special about the Kodak FunSaver. No fancy features. No amazingly sharp lens. Nothing about it really stands out. And perhaps that’s what makes it an overall choice — it is simply exactly what you expect and works for almost everyone’s needs. The red flash ready light is on top and to the left of the viewfinder. The additive type shot counter is dead center, and the oval gray button on the right actuates the shutter.Since Disposable Cameras have been so hard to come by this year we are limiting these to 10 cameras per customer for now. That way more people can get their hands on them.

The FunSaver uses a 30mm F10 lens. The combination of a wide-angle focal length and an F10 aperture means there's no focusing mechanism at play. The FunSaver is quite literally a point-and-shoot camera. The FunSaver's lens includes a pair of plastic aspherical lens elements, which capture surprisingly sharp images considering that it's a cheap, single-use camera. The lens of the FunSaver is also exceptional by disposable camera standards. The 30mm f/10 lens found in the FunSaver features two aspherical plastic elements, which helps it achieve a sharpness uncommon in disposables. The lens’ center sharpness is good, while the aberrations and vignetting that occur (quite rampantly) in the corners give a pleasant, casual character akin to those loved by Lomography weirdos. While the images it makes won’t hold a candle to any high falootin’ glass or multi-element lens, the FunSaver delivers a considerably better image than should be expected, even beating some of the cheapest fixed-focus, non-disposable point-and-shoots.The Kodak FunSaver is like all single-use cameras with a simple plastic lens, manual film advance, and 27 exposures. The Kodak FunSaver comes with a built-in flash and loaded with Kodak film. Color and contrast are pretty good, especially considering it’s a single-use camera with a small, plastic lens. Kodak FunSaver Disposable Film Camera is a simple point-and-shoot with a built-in flash. The film you get with this camera is 800 ISO. It will be able to cope with a wide range of situations. Easy and fun to use. This 35mm film camera is small enough to take it anywhere. Waterproof disposable cameras, while usually not designed to handle serious diving depths, are a good shout for poolside and beach holiday snaps. The film is already loaded, all you do is advance the film via thumb wheel until it won’t turn anymore, then simple look through the viewfinder and take a snap. If you want to use the flash, just push the button on the front of the camera until the red dot on the top turns red, which means the flash is ready.

The disposable camera is the ultimate tool for casual photography. It’s made for non-photographers, vacationers, first-time film shooters, and even experienced shooters looking to simplify their kit. But what’s really remarkable about the disposable camera in the digital age, is its enduring popularity – one can still find a disposable camera in nearly any drug store. The most common of these disposables (at least in the United States) is the Kodak FunSaver, which also happens to be the camera that introduced me to photography.

Disposable cameras are bare-bones film cameras designed for single-use operation. They come pre-loaded with a roll of 35mm film, and the shutter speed, aperture and focus are all preset. Most disposables come with a flash that you can toggle on and off, but other than that you simply need to point and shoot. The film is advanced after each shot by rotating a thumb wheel, and once you reach the end of the roll, there’s no need to rewind or remove the film canister – instead, you drop the whole camera off for development. Where can I get disposable cameras developed? Richard Photo Lab is another great lab that caters more to professionals. They have a lot of really detailed options to choose from, which can be a little overwhelming for some customers.
