Kodak Ektar H35 Kodak with Tri-X 400 Black and White

Sat, Oct 11, 2025

Here are the results of my first roll of Tri-X black and white film shot with the Kodak Ektar H35, a small form-factor film camera that shoots 72 photos on a 36-shot roll of film by only filling half the frame with each photo taken.

All previous rolls I shot with the half frame were color, and I was surprised at how bold and contrasty these photos turned out. These relatively mundane moments became bold and dramatic!

Fujifilm disposables: the format still holds its allure

Disposable cameras are bulkier than your phone, cost more than the film camera you presumably already own, cost more to develop than an ordinary roll of film, and don’t even have the decency to let you know your finger is in the shot.

Despite all these drawbacks, the humble disposable camera still has something unique to offer: the shots they produce look more like my 80/90s childhood than any filter or modern camera has managed to capture.
