Mark's Kodak Pocket Instamatic 30 PageOnce again my ignorance cost me. I wanted a 110 film camera for the collection. This one cost $16.28 incl tax from a thrift store. Came with original box, a magicube, and the flash extender. I didn't know this model (and a few others) used the infamous "K" battery (seen below in yellow), which is now un-obtainium. Mine came with one, which seems to still work, probably not for long. There are several videos showing how to modify a dead one, or buy a 3d printed openable case that uses currently available button batteries. The camera itself seems to be OK. It uses Magic Cubes like my other instamatics, so I've collected a few from local thirft shops, for around $2 bucks each.Here are some pics of the camera, below will be shots taken with it. It arrived in the original box. It originally had a box of film also, but it came with a flash extender. View inside showing the dreaded K battery in yellow. Bottom, showing the tripod socket, and the broken strap bracket. Cable release socket next to shutter release button. |
