For the most part -- these all plastic P&S cameras currently made are so much better than the actually sturdier P&S 35mm cameras from the 70s/80s -- at least optically....

[@theoldcameraguy]

If you don’t expect too much out of them, they’re really not bad. I personally like the look.

[@aengusmacnaughton1375]

@@theoldcameraguy -- The exposure was very good (despite these cameras 'defying' the Sunny 16 rule -- F9 at 1/125 should be about a Sunny 16 for ISO of around 25) -- and the flash strength well matched for the lens/film, noticeable vignetting, but the sharpness across most of the middle of the frame was very good. I recently finished my first roll in my Kodak S-88 (Harman Phoenix) and mailed it off for processing/scanning -- I must say that the camera gave me fits! Fresh battery yet it struggled to advance the film (sometimes it was a 'two-part' advance -- I could tell that it did not advance fully but stopped, and I'd 'squeeze' the back film door and it would finish the advance). And it completely stopped half-way through the rewind. I had to pop in a fresh battery to get it to struggle along and finish the rewind. I should see the results in a few days....

[@SinaFarhat]

Nice! Sometimes you need a simple plasticy camera and enjoy the simplicity of just pressing the shutterbutten och going to next frame!

[@theoldcameraguy]

Thanks - I agree!

[@aengusmacnaughton1375]

Couldn't resist -- "Norm!!!" 🤣🤣🤣 Probably need to be an old fart like me to get the reference!

[@kelkin222]

I'm like you and I love to use toy cameras, leaning into their limitations to make really good photos. As much as I like using nice cameras and lenses, I always seem to gravitate back to the toy cameras, especially with B&W film.

[@theoldcameraguy]

I really do like a camera with a simple plastic lens

[@Minolta_Gal]

Nice shots. Gotta love a simple low fi camera.

[@theoldcameraguy]

Thanks

[@WalksInCamera]

Cool camera. Bought one for a colleague when they were leaving and they love it!

[@theoldcameraguy]

I really liked it too.

[@tonyb2760]

I really like the look that camera produces. Thanks for sharing

[@theoldcameraguy]

Thanks for watching Tony

[@sarasnyder1086]

Lovely photos, as always! Those murals are very special.

[@theoldcameraguy]

Thanks Sara

[@focustiltphoto]

I don't have that camera, but I have "that camera" under some random name by a Korean seller. Cool little cameras. Very refreshing to just go out and shoot with it and not worry about anything other than compositions. My point and shoot love is strong.

[@theoldcameraguy]

Yes, these point and shoots just let you focus on composition, which I really like - no overthinking.

[@samhardy2038]

Well Done. The photo of the railroad boxcar is my favorite. Keep on doing what you’re doing. M

[@theoldcameraguy]

Thanks!

[@xyzrandom3981]

Nice shots! Echoing the comment up top, if you’re in the market for an easy P&S, especially as a gift, this might be a better option than used gear. Personally not what I’m looking for when shooting film, but I appreciate the review.

[@ViaOjo]

Nice shots - live the vignetting

[@theoldcameraguy]

Thank You

[@AndrewWaltonPhotography]

Hi Dave, I reckon it's almost time for a side by side shootout between all these plastic fantastic 35mm point and shoots. I'd like to know if there is much difference between them all, Kodak, Agfa, Ilford etc.

[@theoldcameraguy]

The results really are all about the same from all these various models.

[@denilson_azarias]

Nice pictures!! I have one like the one in the video, I used a Fuji Speed ​​Film 400 film and I really liked the results, I'm going to try using a black and white film from FOMAPAM, I just don't know which ISO to use.

[@theoldcameraguy]

Thanks - You can use Fomapan 400 if it’s cloudy or overcast and Fomapan 200 if it’s sunny.

[@denilson_azarias]

Thank you, I will follow your advice. Hugs from Brazil.

[@cherisoffside]

hi, i also use this camera, but when i turn on the flash, the red light does not turn on. the flash does not fire even if the flash button is on. does this mean my camera is broken? i don't know... if the flash does not fire, am i not able to take the photo? i don't know much about cameras, i would be glad if you could help me.

[@theoldcameraguy]

It’s possible the flash is broken. You can still take pictures even if the flash doesn’t fire though.

[@MelinaDimitrova-mj6ii]

What would you recommend between this and the Kodak i60? :)

[@theoldcameraguy]

I like the i60 a little better

[@MelinaDimitrova-mj6ii]

@@theoldcameraguy thank you!

[@theoldcameraguy]

@@MelinaDimitrova-mj6iiYou’re welcome

[@kristinemg]

Would you recommend this better than the Ektar H35?

[@theoldcameraguy]

Yes, because the H35 is half frame, and I prefer full frame.

[@kristinemg]

@@theoldcameraguythank you! I got the F9 :)

[@theoldcameraguy]

@@kristinemg Great - Have fun with it!
