I found a camera my mother gave to me when I was 9. It's a little plastic thing that has a fixed aperture, shutter-speed, lens ect. Its pretty much a child's toy. But it already had taken 6 photos before being locked in my dresser drawer for 10 years. I ran around with it the other day and loved how simple it was.
So, does anyone have experience with 110 film, and the camera's that use them?
I just bought 40 cassettes (rolls) of 110 film...

I had one when I was about the same age, 30ish years ago! I know I liked it at the time. Not sure what happen to it. From what I remember it took quite good photo.

Had the Kodak 110 long and skinny camera - simple fixed lens and point and shoot mode only. A friend of mine actually had the Pentax SLR version with 3 lenses!
Mine took crappy pics, hers weren't too bad. The film is actually 16mm film on its side - and later was the exact same film used for APS cameras (only better emulsion by then).
And the Disc camera mentioned above - one of my college professors was the woman who came up with the idea - she envisioned a little ferris wheel of negatives, and that's what the engineers at Kodak came up with. Nice lady, but really flaky!

I still have a Pentax 110 SLR with the 3 lenses, in its lovely leather case. It is very cute, but I suppose it's just another thing I don't need!
