The Fujifilm Instax Mini instant film is an instant colour film. Although branded as an instant film, once your photo pops out of your camera it does take 10-15 minutes to develop, you can watch one of the most complex chemical processes bring your photographs to life.

It needed a now unavailable mercury battery so a converter and suitable replacement was ordered and received for £7. I se ......

Week 17Kodak No 3 Folding Pocket Kodak [model E-3]Finally! I get to play with this!!! So, for many, many weeks I have looked at and admired this camera. It sits with a few other No3s on a shelf but this one really had me drooling over it.

I can with some certainty date this one between Nov 6th 1906 & May 7th 1907. How? 1906 date ......
