9 best 35mm film cameras
Absolutely! 35mm film cameras have been a staple in the world of film photography for many years. They use a type of film known as 35mm film, which is a standardized film format that's 35 millimeters wide. These cameras were widely popular before the digital era and are still cherished by many photography enthusiasts for the unique qualities they offer.
Key features of 35mm film cameras include:
Film Format: As the name suggests, these cameras use 35mm film, which comes in canisters. The film is loaded into the camera, and as you take pictures, it advances to the next frame.
Manual Controls: Many 35mm film cameras provide manual control over settings like aperture, shutter speed, and focus.This hands-on approach allows photographers to have precise control over their shots.
Lens Interchangeability: Depending on the model, 35mm film cameras often allow users to change lenses. This flexibility is advantageous for different types of photography, from wide-angle shots to telephoto captures.
Mechanical Operation: Unlike digital cameras that rely on electronic sensors, 35mm film cameras operate mechanically. This gives them a tactile and mechanical feel that some photographers find nostalgic and enjoyable.
Viewfinder: 35mm film cameras typically have an optical viewfinder that allows photographers to compose their shots. Some advanced models also have features like through-the-lens (TTL) metering.
Film Variety: With 35mm film cameras, photographers can choose from a variety of films with different ISO ratings, colors, and effects. This allows for creative expression through the selection of film types.
While digital photography has become dominant, many photographers still appreciate the art and craft of shooting with 35mm film cameras. The process of shooting on film, developing the film, and creating physical prints can be a rewarding and hands-on experience for those who enjoy the traditional aspects of photography.

User questions & answers
Question: | Does this camera have autofocus |
Answer: | Do not know. The place of manufacture is not noted on the device. We use it whenever the Instapot is used which is at least once a week. |
Question: | Does this product come with batteries and a 35 mm lens |
Answer: | Hi customer, Thanks for your question. It works on Instant Pot Ultra. Regards, HOUSE AGAIN |
Question: | Does it have automatic film load & reverse or do you have to manually turn and load & reverse |
Answer: | If it doesn't, you can always use a spoon in a cupped formation. If you press it against the steam release valve, you can direct the steam any where you want to. I use whatever spoon I have handy at the time, to divert the steam no need to buy anything. |
Question: | how many mega pixels on this camera |
Answer: | Sure, these silicoe lid are perfert to use on pots or pans to cook. |
Question: | there is memory card slot |
Answer: | These are for use in the microwave. Regular lids are metal and NOT for use in the microwave. Perhaps the description is poorly written - I suppose you could use them on the stove to cover a pot, but they are not really meant for that. The little holes in the top let steam escape, when, for instance, you are re-heating a bowl of chili in the microwave. |

Product description
Accessories Included:
1 Carrying strap
1 Frame Size Mask of 6x12 cm
1 Frame Size Mask of 6x9 cm
Being a pinhole camera, as light doesn’t have to pass through any lens, the images taken will have below characteristics:
(a) no optical distortion whatsoever to the image;
(b) no need to focus;
(c) the angle of the view will be much wider.
Having a greatly extended body, the camera enjoys a super wide panoramic view with the horizontal exposure angle reaching as wide as 120 °. Depending on which of the two Film Size Frames is used, the width of the film for the picture taken can either be 90mm or 120mm.
With special feature of multiple-exposures effect, it will provide more latitude for the photographer to try out his/her imagination. This makes photographing more enjoyable and brings one surprises.
As longer exposure time is needed for pin-hole cameras, it’s necessary to mount the camera on a tripod as well as use a Shutter Release Cable (they are not included). For the convenience, there is an exposure table on the back of the camera body to provide some reference for deciding the length of exposure time needed according to the condition of the weather or time of day.
Let us return to the original nature and record every different and precious moment by using Holga camera!
- Pinhole Exposure: It lets light pass through the pin hole, to hit the film directly, causing exposure without passing through any lens.
- Panoramic View: The camera enjoys a super wide panoramic view with the horizontal exposure angle reaching as wide as 120 degree. Aperture: F133.
- Film to Use: Accommodate all 120 format films. The use of exposure speed ASA 100 films on sunny days and ASA 400 on cloudy days or indoor occasions is recommended.
- Two different Frame Size Masks: one is for 8 frames of 6x9 cm each per roll and another is for 6 frames of 6x12 cm each per roll.
- Multiple-Exposures Effect: As the film is advanced manually, the camera can help achieve special effects through multiple exposures by NOT advancing the film after a frame has been exposed. Each depression of the Shutter Release Button will bring about another exposure.
User questions & answers
Question: | What's the best film for the camera I can get |
Answer: | There is no easy answer but if you like wildlife or sports photography the D500 would be a better choice. For landscape and architectural photography I would take the D750. The D500 has an incredible buffer which allows you to shoot 200 photos at one time, the latest Nikon autofocus and exposure features and 4k video and if you already have DX lenses they will work great on the D500 but not so well on the D750. I use both FX and DX cameras and both have their pros and cons. Your choice should be based on what kind of photography you plan on doing. |
Question: | Where can I get a strap for it |
Answer: | No but if the cost is keeping you away from it, do not buy the camera. I highly recommend one. So much faster and the jpgs are about 15MB so sd card starts bogging down. |
Question: | where can you get the film developed |
Answer: | The one that I received was a European model. I thought about returning it but if I needed repairs It Isn’t covered under the Nikon warranty either way . The D850 I received was in mint condition and worked flawlessly. |
