Thinking about that time I ran across a video titled "why I'm never buying another disposable camera" or something, thinking it was someone who found a cheap point-and-shoot that had a crappy lens and recreated "that look"

But no. It was like a 20 year old who had just discovered *cameras*

The normal kind. That you reload with film.

He didn't know they existed.

Weird. I didn't think disposable film cameras stuck around very long before being (presumably) replaced by digital cameras and later cell phones.

Apparently they're still around??

@humbird0 @TechConnectify I used to work in a Walmart photo lab and the main buyers of actual disposable cameras are parents with super little kids who want to take pictures, old folks, and people who would rather spend $100 on disposables, then another $100 on processing, because it's "cheaper than getting a digital camera".
