The Fujifilm QuickSnap disposable camera is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year, so the brand is taking note with two new versions that celebrate the single-use photography classic. The disposable camera will come in the new Black and White and Active options, which will each offer 27 exposures to capture a variety of scenes.
The Black and White version captures images on ISO 400 black and white negative film and boasts a switch-activated flash with a 10-foot range. The Active model is waterproof and packaged in protective housing with a wrist strap attached, and captures images on ISO 800 Color negative film with a 35-foot waterproof rating.
The new Fujifilm QuickSnap disposable cameras will be available in the fall priced between $22.90 and $24.75.
