r/flashbackcamera

Hi! Recently took a disposable camera on a trip and absolutely loved the photos and the process. I'm taking a trip to disney in august and instead of multiple disposables, I'm hoping to find a decent digital screen free camera to take its place.

Ideally it will look as much like photos from a disposable as possible, and also be able to work well in both daylight and night time.

Which of the screen free cameras available right now would best suit my needs do you think?

Thanks so much!

I’ve ordered the camera a week ago. It should be handled by Parcel Delivery Network and it says it’s in transit “on the flashback app”. But when i open the delivery service website the tracking number doesn’t seem to work. Im worried because if i’m not able to speak to them if there’s any problem and i’m not going to be home i’m not sure what will happen to the camera?anyone else ordered from the uk?

First ever Reddit post, so apologies if I'm doing this wrong!

I recently bought a Flashback because I absolutely love the look and feel of disposable camera photos. I've spent so much money on disposables over the years and always have one on me, so I thought the Flashback would be the perfect way to keep that aesthetic without constantly buying new cameras.

The only issue I'm having is with the framing. I'm quite particular when I take photos, so I expect the developed image to match what I saw through the viewfinder. Instead, every photo seems to include much more of the background than I was expecting. The people in the shot end up looking smaller because the camera captures a wider view than what I thought I was framing.

I know I could crop or zoom in afterwards, but that's not really the point for me. I want the photo to come out as I composed it when I pressed the shutter.

Is there any way to change this, or is it just how the camera works? Looking at the example photos in the app (like the ones shown when choosing a film type), they seem much tighter on the subjects. Were those photos just taken from much closer, or am I missing a setting?

Any advice would be appreciated!

Hi all! I’ve been using Lo-Fi Logic’s software to develop my photos (thank you!!) and love the look those filters produce much more than the ones that come with the app.

My question: if I’m going to be away from my computer all day/night but need to offload a “roll of film” to start a new one….is there a way to do this without developing them in the app? Or can I export the raws to my phone via Lightroom (or something along those lines) to save the DNGs before I develop them in the app?

If this makes no sense……..sorry my brain is mush today LOL
