EKTAR H35N Half Frame Film Camera Bundle with Kodak Ultramax 400/24EXP 35mm Roll Film (Striped Black)

This is such a fun little half-frame film camera, but if you’re brand new to film (like me), a few things were confusing at first — so here’s what I learned to save you some time: • The camera itself is fully mechanical — it doesn’t need batteries to shoot. The single AAA battery is only for the flash. • To avoid draining the battery, just make sure the flash switch is down (off) when you’re not using it. When the switch is up, the red light means the flash is charging. • After every shot, you must wind the film using the black wheel on top until it stops — otherwise you’ll either double-expose or the shutter won’t fire. • Loading film: tuck the film leader into the slot on the take-up spool (the empty black cylinder on the left), make sure the sprocket holes sit on the teeth, then advance until it catches. Once the counter hits 1, you’re ready to shoot. • The star filter switch is just a fun effect: • Down = normal photos (N). • Up = ✦ star filter on (lights turn into starbursts at night). I can’t wait to share the photos that come out of this little camera! I’ll update this review once I’ve developed my first roll.

I had my wedding photos taken on 35mm and I fell in love with the look and really wanted to learn on my own. I was so intimidated by film so I decided to start off with the Ektar so if I failed I hadn't wasted that much money. I just got the scans back from the first roll and I love this thing. I wish there were better instructions for how to load it but luckily there are lots of YouTube videos. Since I'm assuming other novices will buy this, don't open the back lol. I did (dumb rookie mistake) and ruined my last few frames but I had it open a long time and the rest were fine. So excited to keep shooting with this. Def worth the money to have them professionally developed but just what I was looking for.

My favorite camera of all time!! I take this on every trip and have loved all of the photos. The half frame is so unique and gives you double the amount of photos a normal 35mm camera would produce. Have gifted this to so many friends who love it just as much! Extremely beginner friendly, this was my first film camera. As long as you remember to turn the flash off the battery life is great. Can’t recommend enough!! I’ve had it for less than a year and have developed over 10 rolls of film and have loved all of the photos every time.

I bought this camera because i wanted an alternative to buying disposable film cameras. at first the counter couldn't move, so i wasn't sure if the pictures i was talking would be captured. Secondly I decided to take this camera on a two week trip to Europe and I took pictures of monuments, sites and everything else travel related. When I returned and got the film roll developed nothing came out well. Two entire rolls were spoiled. All the photos had a pitch black haze over it. To add insult to injury i decided to give this product one last chance before i tossed it in the trash. About 30 shots in the film advancer slide and the capture button were stuck. The guy at my photo development studio told me that this kind of film camera wasn't worth it and that I'm better off sourcing a used older film camera online. The disposable fuji and kodak cameras are so much better an easier to use than this. this product is a complete waste of money.

El contador de fotos no sirve ya e gastados varios disparos no se mueve

So fun and nostalgic! Super easy to use just remember to turn the picture til it clicks after you take it! Perfect for trips

Very good servicio

I'm not a camera person but the vibes are great. got 48 pics in the 24 exp roll. Just make sure to always use flash.
