Kodak M38 Film Camera - Lime Green

Paid for the bundle set but batteries they forgot to deliver. Told them and they offer to pay $0.50 (seriously?? lol) from paynow to me, but lazada forbid me to type telephone number. Obviously I said no need. The price of getting 2 batteries from outside is definitely more than $0.50, it is meant to be a gift, so I still need to prepare the batteries for the person to open up and used. Camera and film are not put in carton from reviews of previous buyers, they run out.Overall receive the camera and film in good condition. Havent use but will get feedback from the birthday girl.Second purchase from this shop for different items. Not bad.

A super fun 'point and shoot' camera

Using this camera has been really fun and rewarding for me.The inherent limitations of a basic camera like this force you to be creative and thoughtful with your shots,I loaded a roll of Ilford XP2 into the camera (200/400 iso films are recommended due to the fixed exposure) and went out and took some shots around town.The ease of just being able to 'click, wind, click, wind' mean that you don't have to worry about focussing, exposure controls or zoom, I found this pretty liberating as you avoid the anxiety over autofocus and the extra layer of the unknown that comes with that. The fixed focus does of course mean that the shots aren't super sharp overall, but they are still perfectly nice from my point of view.This camera can take some really nice shots in ... MoreUsing this camera has been really fun and rewarding for me.The inherent limitations of a basic camera like this force you to be creative and thoughtful with your shots,I loaded a roll of Ilford XP2 into the camera (200/400 iso films are recommended due to the fixed exposure) and went out and took some shots around town.The ease of just being able to 'click, wind, click, wind' mean that you don't have to worry about focussing, exposure controls or zoom, I found this pretty liberating as you avoid the anxiety over autofocus and the extra layer of the unknown that comes with that.

Do not purchase from Red tag Camera

When I received my order the camera was not secured in the camera package. It was out with the other items which includes the liquid cleaner. The cleaner did not have a top on it and only a little liquid inside with black stuff in it. Some of the liquid was inside the package and was on everything. Everything inside was loose nothing was secured except the camera case which did have its own bag covering it. whoever packed this order did a horrible job. The paper that came inside said to call or email with issues which I emailed and 3 days later still nothing no response. I called and just a recording saying to email. Disappointing

Simple to use

DISCLAIMER: I've not developed any film from this camera... Yet!Operation is simple enough, I've loaded 2 rolls so far without issue, flash readies itself fairly quickly, unable to comment on battery life yet but battery is only required for flash operation as the rest (loading, frame advance, shutter and rewind) are all manual.Camera is ultra lightweight compared to "full size" cameras and lives in my jacket pocket - Seems pretty sturdy for a plastic build.

Used for nights out - but became more hassle than it was worth :(

I loved taking a film camera out with me, especially for birthdays or special events as it kept me in the moment and captured people in ways that film just makes extra special. At first, I loved having this compact wee camera out with me. The colour was nice, design simple - however after a few rolls of film in I noticed how annoying it became. The shutter wheel constantly kept needing turned, felt like you were turning it 10x more than you should have! Then you'd eventually here the click and you were ready to go, but by that time the moment may have been lost, so not exactly ideal. I feel like this may just be my camera, based on other reviews but it has now made me think twice about getting a new point and shoot :( It's a shame really good value, looks cute, got ... MoreI loved taking a film camera out with me, especially for birthdays or special events as it kept me in the moment and captured people in ways that film just makes extra special.

a brilliant wee camera!

a fantastic snappy little film camera that's easy to use and produces lovely images. bought this for my daughter, and used it at a recent concert with Kodak UltraMax 400. very pleasing photos with a wonderful timeless aesthetic to them. This is a cracking camera to take on holiday or to a festival, the flash has a decent range on it.
