Choosing disposable cameras

Use the flash indoors and any time you're in shade, even outdoors — it's the single biggest difference between a good disposable photo and a dark one. Most cameras need a couple of seconds to recharge between flashes.

Check the minimum focusing distance and flash range printed on your camera. Many models work best with people roughly one to three metres away when using flash; distant subjects need enough natural light.

Buying for a wedding or party? Work on one camera per table and put a card next to it telling guests to use the flash. Collect them at the end of the night rather than letting people take them home.

When the roll is finished, don't open the camera. Hand the whole thing in at our Cardiff store or post it to us and we'll extract, develop and scan the film for you.

From your camera to our lab

Once you have finished shooting, bring your film to Morgan Arcade or post it to our Cardiff lab for developing and scanning.

Disposable cameras questions

How do you get photos off a disposable camera?

Hand the whole camera in at 14–16 Morgan Arcade, Cardiff, or post it to us. We open it in the darkroom, develop the film and put your scans in a private online gallery.

How many photos does a disposable camera take?

Ours are 27 or 39 exposures depending on the model. The Kodak FunSaver with flash is 39.

Do disposable cameras work indoors?

Use a model with flash and keep your subject within its recommended range. Flash will not light an entire room, and indoor photos without it can be very dark.
