## Description

Kodak M38 35mm Film Camera with Flash (Starry Black)

Review: My go to travel camera! - It looks like a disposable so no one would take a second look at it. Pretty sturdy so far despite the plastic lightness of it. Not too big so sometimes I have it in my pocket when rock climbing. The film advance works pretty great too and I can snap photos pretty easily without all the bells and whistles of my other film cameras. Everything that I wanted!
Review: Nice cheap reusable film cameras - I tried multiple and this one seems to work best. Keep in mind that if you take it beach or use it multiple time it will get dirty and won’t work as smoothly. But this was less of a issue and happened after more rolls than other similar cameras I tried.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this camera come with film?**
A: No. You also need a AAA battery

**Q: Got my film developed and just about every picture came out black / under exposed. How do I fix that for next time?**
A: Use higher speed (ISO) film and use Flash when you take photos in indoor.
How Film Works, photographic film is made up of millions of light-sensitive silver halide crystals,.  The lower the film speed, the finer the grain; the higher the film speed, the fatter the grain. Larger silver halide crystals have more light sensitivity than smaller ones, so a higher ISO will be more sensitive to light than a lower one.

**Q: is there a frame counter to let you know how many you have left?**
A: yes, it would be located on top of the camera

**Q: Does it come with a bag or pouch?**
A: No, This one does not come with a bag,

### ⭐ Crappy camera but ok if you're going for the crappy photo vibe
*by P***A on February 27, 2024*

In theory this camera is a great cheap alternative to repeatedly buying disposable cameras. But emphasis on "disposable" as it inherently means the quality is trash. I got this because I wanted to go on a couple of trips without the worry of my 50yo analog camera getting damaged and because this Kodak one was significantly lighter. The flash stopped working after taking just 2 pics with flash. Big big bummer as these cameras cannot function in low light. I've used 2 rolls of film with this and I can't say it's worth using a whole new roll of film with this. I'm better off just buying a disposable camera. I'd say maybe 2/5 shots are usable. I'd rather haul a heavier camera and get solid shots. Some shots turned out "meh" quality and others absolutely terribly.
