This year I'm using a different film format each month, starting with the smallest and working my way up through the sizes. The format for July is the 126 (or Instamatic) cartridge which was introduced in 1963. It was made for the Kodak Instamatic range of cameras, and was produced until around 2008. The format gave 28mm x 28mm square negatives and the vast majority of cameras made to use it were very simple and basic. The only film available now is long expired.
This SupaSnaps promotional camera was given away with film by the High Street chain of that name. It uses 126 cartridges, but unusually instead of the 28mm x 28mm square images, there is a film plane mask which gives 30mm x 18mm negatives.
