Hmmmmm.....126

[webestang64]

So I picked up 2 more Kodak 104's free from work (Now 8 in my collection including the one that was my first camera).
Notice the cartridge.....!

Hmmmmm reload the cartridge with 35mm and put it through this.........

I don't remember the camera, but I do remember shooting 126.

Have you managed to get the cartridge refilled yet?

I'm going to reload it this weekend.

I had an Instamatic 104 as
My third or fourth camera!

I often hear people incorrectly refer to Polaroid cameras as "Instamatics"

Instamatic was Kodak's trademark name for their easy-load 126 cartridge film cameras, launched in Feb 1963 with the Instamatic 50. Kodak then called some of their 110 cameras Pocket Instamatic in the 1970's.
I also have a Kodak 100 126 that is very similar to the 104.

It's trademarked, and it got used like biro or hoover to mean any similar product, like box brownie i guess

Sheetrock
Jell-O
Jacuzzi
Kleenex

Sometimes, a trademark name becomes so common it enters the everyday language.

I guess this could be called the last of the Kodak Retinas. Mine has the f1.9 Schneider lens. It took very sharp images.

Had a poxy little Keystone that took 126 when I was a tyke. Craptastic camera but it froze so many memories! Always loaded, it got me into the deplorable habit of buying film and stashing it in my Mom's 'fridge. At least that's how she saw it.

I'm going to tape that number hole from the inside as not to destroy that C-22 label.

Don't forget to add ScotTowels.

Preparing the back. Taped on the inside I noticed the gaffers tape was ruff to the touch. Added acid free scotch tape so not to scratch the base of the film.

Added a small piece to fit inside the hole to hide the sticky part with added light blockage.
Label saved!
