like a lot of fixed focus cameras, the Y16 seems to struggle at longer distances, it's much sharper in the sort of 10m range

Also dug this out for #UndeadFormatWeek, a disposable #Kodak Advantix APS camera that expired in 2006. It has only had seven exposures taken, so plenty to shoot on it. It’s a bright, sunny day, so perhaps there is hope.

i was walking by the photography museum in soho & a guy pointed at me. after my usual automatic reaction of "oh no what did i do?" i realised he was pointing at my iX. i went over and he said "you're shooting APS!" and waved a tiny nikon APS, i think a nuvis s? it's an #undeadformatweek miracle

#undeadformatweek day 1 - 126. shooting instamatic in 2026
this is a kodak instamatic x-15. instamatic/126 is the predecessor of 110, having the same cartridge form and mostly the same cheap, easy to use cameras, but with a larger, 24x24 square exposure. unlike 110 there is nobody selling 126 today

The Yashica 44LM only gave me 5 images off the roll of 127 that I cut down. That was my fault. I couldn’t see the numbers on the backing paper so kept skipping frames. #UndeadFormatWeek

so this evening i thought i would write a bit about 16mm and the literal poster girl of #undeadformatweek, the yashica Y16. you may have seen the recent news that the scamera outfit currently using the yashica name is planning a digicam 'inspired by' it, but this is the real deal! (photo: submin)

Xtol 1+1 equivalent Bellini Ecofilm for 7:30
Ironically the cleanest image on the roll was the least planned. This was a last minute shot just trying to finish the roll. #believeinfilm #filmphotography #undeadformatweek

you have to take new pictures to be eligible for the competition (though obviously i am very much taking that on trust)
however with that said people are of course very welcome to post favourite old stuff taken with dead formats/dead format cameras

May need to retest the shutter speeds on the Primo JR. - a lot of the negatives like this were a liiitle too overexposed for my liking.

I wish I'd gotten it done earlier, but #undeadformatweek is the perfect excuse to finally get the billows pried of this old Kodak Monitor Six-16. The lens looks and works great and the rest of the camera is functional, but nothing about it is light tight right now.

While I got pictures off the Minolta-16P spy camera, most of them were fuzzy, and all of them were overexposed. Clearly, there is a bit of a learning curve here that I've yet to master. Still, I was pleased to see that the film itself came through the slitting process unscathed. #Undeadformatweek

#undeadformatweek DAY ZERO - 110
only died for 2 years, from 2009 to 2011, the least dead eligible format, 110 is a cartridge film exposing a very small 13x17mm negative, and still in production today. this is my 110-typical form factor camera, the minolta autopak 470, next to a cartridge by konica

#undeadformatweek okay, two more bits of misc information i think will be valuable for people shooting 110, first: the frames
so real 110 film comes with frames pre-exposed onto the film strip. if you've ever noticed that on your negatives the image continues faintly outside the border, that's why

#undeadformatweek 110 part 2, recommendations
good info is sparse so please add your own!
to try shooting 110 with a decent camera, i think you'd do a lot worse than the minoltas. the autopak 470 was their high-end subminiature model and has a surprisingly sharp lens but can be got extremely cheap
