Composition in the Arts
KODAK EKTAR H35 is your great resource to tell a tale through two consecutive frames. The frames can be paired in numerous ways. You can, among other things, film the same topic at two distinct times or take close-up and wide shots of the same surroundings. The only limit is your creativity, and the possibilities are endless. Try to be creative and exploratory!
Film-saving
Per roll, you may fit twice as many photos. A film roll with 36 exposures, for instance, can provide about 72 half-frame pictures – doubled!

Built-in Flash
You may use the Kodak Ektar H35 both during the day and at night, both indoors and outdoors, by adjusting the silver ring around the lens to turn on the flash.
Focus-free
The camera is simple to use and focus-free. With it, you’ll always be prepared to record any priceless moments, wherever you are and whenever you choose.
Frequently Asked Questions

It is not real leather. This is a plastic camera that is made to look retro.

Yes
Is it an instant camera?****
No, it uses 35mm film, which needs to be processed.
Is there a switch to choose between 36 and 72 frames?****
There is no option to change negative format. This camera is a half frame 35 mm, a format that has been around for a long time. It takes vertical format photos and must be turned on its side to take horizontal photos. This camera is a basic camera, like used to be common in the old film era. It has a fixed focus that has a depth of field from 9 feet to infinity. It has a single shutter speed of 1/100 of a second. A fixed aperture of F9. So this camera should be used with negative film, so the exposure can be fixed when it is scanned. BTW half frame images are the same size the APS-C sensors in a lot of digital cameras.
