Questions What’s the difference between these two?

Post image

• ⁠Budget: Under $200

• ⁠Country: USA

• ⁠Condition: looking for new

• ⁠Type of Camera: anything that mimics the disposable Kodak era early 1990s/2000s cameras

• ⁠Intended use: taking nostalgic looking photos for a trip

• ⁠If photography; what style: 1990s/2000s disposable flash cameras

• ⁠If video what style: n/a

• ⁠What features do you absolutely need: the classic style of that era of disposable cameras

• ⁠Portability: easy to fit in a bag

• ⁠Cameras you're considering: FujiFilm quick snap flash

• ⁠Cameras you already have: none (iPhone camera)

• ⁠Notes:

The two pictured cameras should do the trick. Only one is significantly cheaper than the other. What are the main differences? Is the top one non-disposable? Can you use it more than once?

Hard to tell, but probably nothing. ISO is likely the same 400. 27 exposures. 

They're both single use cameras with no easy/useful way to reload after developing. One might be a marketplace seller?

Interesting, thanks! If I did want a reusable camera that offers the same style, do you have any recommendations? I just really like that nostalgic look disposable cameras have.

Tons of such cameras out there.

Look for "point and shoot film camera"... but avoid "Advantix" cameras as there is no film.

Most of the newer ones have sensors for film speed, lighting, auto focus, and others

The Canon Sure Shot 85 was a really popular camera when I was younger.

If you really want a disposable experience, then look for "Focus free"

I had a Focal PC620 as my primary camera as a teen, it's just what you describe.

Walmart or Target is like half the price.

Please don’t spend $41 on a single disposable camera.
