Cameras for all

Last week I had a job to finally organize my bedroom and in my old school bag  I found two old disposable cameras (single-use camera). If you don’t know anything about this kind of cameras please continue with reading…

The disposable or single-use camera is a simple box camera sold with a roll of film installed, meant to be used once. They usually have focus free lenses and some of them are equipped with an integrated flash unit. There are even waterproof versions for underwater photography. Internally, the cameras use a 135 film or an APS cartridge.

Those cameras can be used in many cases. They are popular with tourists and are also a common solution for underwater photography by those who don’t own a dedicated underwater camera or waterproof housing. Disposable cameras have become increasingly popular as wedding cameras. Usually they are placed on tables at wedding receptions to be used by guests to capture their unique perspective of the event. More commonly they are available in colors to match the wedding theme such as ivory, blue, white, gold, etc (custom cameras).

This kind of cameras are very cheap and you should buy them. At least you don’t need to worry about them…
