Thunderbird
The Thunderbird Camera… named after “The American Classic”. Long after receiving this camera, I happened into a small fortune of c41 127 size film. Thought I’d blast a roll through the Thunderbird. I was shocked to find that this camera expressed itself in true form as a pillar of visual culture! The images! After the […]
Squirt Cameras!
In the spirit of coaxing each and every “camera” to actually perform and create art, I present the Squirt Gun Camera page. [You must have a lot of time on your hands, if you’re burning it reading this.] Diana-Like in their simplicity, these squirt gun cameras – though they appear similar – are as different […]
Micro-Pet 110 SHOOT-OUT!
“A pro chooses her favorite!”
Mini Camera
The hell I went through to get these images! The hell I say! I bought this “mini camera” off the Internet. When it arrived, there were two mini cameras in the box. I’m sure it was an oversight on the sender’s part, but it turned out to be a good thing for me. I have […]
WWF Slam Cam
A digital camera made in China by Toymax. If this isn’t about the stupidest camera … Stupid thing #1: It takes one of those square 9 volt batteries, and batteries aren’t included. When I got it home and saw the deficiency… well … you know there’s only ONE place where a 9 volt […]
Just Ducky
Marcy’s Just Ducky camera review: Well, it’s no Deluxe FryCam. It arrived as a surprise in my mailbox. The timing couldn’t have been better! I was searching for the perfect camera to document the 2017 eclipse experience. Something somewhat technical and scientific-ish. I loaded her up with some Efke 400 which had expired in July of […]
Empire Baby
The very first time I saw an Empire Baby Camera on eBay, I thought it was the cutest little thing. Someone from Australia was auctioning it. I bid $5 and was outbid .I bought my first Empire Baby at the annual camera show in Puyallup, Washington. There, I paid my five bucks. This tiny (3 1/2″ x […]
Prince-Flex “Camera”
When I got this, I didn’t know what it was. It’s not a camera. The fake shutter lever swings aside and the “lens” pops open and there’s a removable cup. Did it hold candy, or something? This tin “camera” is 1 1/4″ wide and 2 3/4″ tall, including the viewfinder. Made in Japan. Here’s […]
Kraft Velveeta Shells & Cheese Camera
Kraft Velveeta and Shells Dinner Camera: Oh 110 film! Now, you can definitely call this little cutie “cheesy”! The color is YELLOW. Not just any yellow, but Velveeta yellow. The camera body probably has fewer polymers in it than an actual chunk of Velveeta. I’ve had two of these Shells & Cheese Dinner camera bodies. The second […]
Marcy’s King’s Lights Cigarette Camera Review:
I bought this camera because its viewfinder is the “Reverse Galilean” type. No… it just seemed like an affordable alternative to taking up smoking. I decided I wanted to be a spy. [” I vanted to be a schpy.”] The pack says, “Made with a choice blend of the world’s finest camera.” I tried […]
Marcy’s Deluxe FryCam
I was getting ready for a trip to the desert southwest. What to bring … what to bring … what to bring… I had to ask myself the question WWAD? [What Would Ansel Do?] Why, he’d bring the Deluxe Fry Cam, of course! Mama always said photography was a “Would you like fries with […]
