The Darkroom’s review of the disposable cameras
You will also get your web uploads approximately 3-6 business days after your order goes into production. Please note there are some exceptions. Super Scan orders typically take 3-7 business days. Film shot in a non-standard format will take several extra days due to manual scanning. This includes APS / Advantix film developing, 110 film developing and 126 film format developing, mini-Diana’s, panoramic formats and sprocket hole rolls, etc.
Damaged film (torn sprockets, overlapped frames, uneven frames) will take longer due to manual scanning. Supplied Negatives/Slides – Prints and scans from previously developed film typically take 5-10 business days. Photo Gifts – Canvas, metal, and bamboo products generally run 5-9 business day production time. Prints ordered from scans online generally take 2-5 business days of production time.
New to our lineup for 2020, the Rollei disposable camera comes pre-loaded with the Rollei RPX 400 27 exp. B&W film is which is a great film stock with very good exposure latitude. The camera has an identical design as the JCH Kassha but produced better and more consistent results. It has a 31mm f/9 at a 125th lens that’s pretty sharp from 3-5ft and gets pretty soft after 15ft. Like the other disposable cameras, it performs best in bright sunny days or close shots using the flash. The flash is reliable and if you’re in anything other than bright light, it’s highly recommended to use the flash. This camera did create some interesting distortion which is most-likely from the film being a little loose inside of the camera. Overall it’s a fun camera to shoot with – we liked the look of the Rollei RPX 400 but if we had to choose, we’d still pick the Ilford Single HP5 with seems to be sharper and have less image distortion.
Loaded with Kodak Max 800 which is a stop faster than the Kodak Fun Saver – this allows it to be more versatile in lower light areas like underwater. Its’ rugged build and waterproof down 50ft make it ideal for winter water and extreme outdoor activities. If you don’t plan on shoot underwater though we highly recommend the Kodak Fun Saver which produces higher quality images. Wine this camera is encased with a plastic cover it seems to be less sharp and due to no flash, it’s not ideal for indoor use. Of the two underwater single-use camera, the Fuji Waterproof Quick Snap and this, we definitely recommend the Kodak which produced slightly sharper images and more consistent image quality.
This is the only waterproof disposable camera we tested. With its Pre-loaded Fujicolor Superia X-TRA 800iso 35mm film grain film and no flash, you’ll only want to shoot it in daylight or underwater that’s being hit by light. It produces better slightly better skin tones than the Fuji QuickSnap and does better in low light due to its 800iso film. This all-weather camera with an oversized shutter button is ideal for shooting outdoors in wet and snowy conditions, and operates up to 35 feet underwater. However, If you don’t plan on getting wet, we don’t recommend this camera.
