Personally, I like film cameras so much that I sometimes give disposable film cameras as gifts to my acquaintances. However, when I see a new disposable camera that I haven't used, I always take a picture of it first. Each disposable camera has a different type of film and they all look similar, but the results are quite different. I have to make a nice film photo result, so I always take it first and refer to it when I give it away.
Of these, Color Filka always tried others, but finally went back to Kodak Funsaver. I tried many disposable cameras, but this one has the best quality. By the way, when people look at the results of photos taken with Funsaber Filma, they see many photos that are very disappointing. Today, I will present a tip for taking a nice photo with Kodak Funsaver, the king of disposable photos.
Shoot at least 1 m away outdoors and shoot at a distance of at least 3 m indoors or when the flash fires.
Disposable film cameras do not have a focus function. In contrast, in the case of Kodak Fun Saver, the aperture is set to approximately F/11 at ISO800 sensitivity and the shutter speed is set to 1/100th of a second. In addition, the focal length is set to infinity at approximately 2M or more. You don't have to know anything about what these settings mean. Just be aware that if you don't shoot from a distance of more than 1m, you will end up with a blurred image.
If you look at some of Funsaber Filka's photos, there are quite a few shots taken up close. And I like the fact that there is a cinematic element even if it is out of focus, but wouldn't it be better if it was in focus?

If you adjust the distance well, you can take a very sharp picture.
When firing the flash, it is good to take pictures at a distance of 3M, taking into account the scattering of light from the flash. Also, if you are too far away, the amount of light from the flash may not reach you, so you can take a picture a little further back than an adult with open arms.
Let's take a picture with the sun behind us (avoid backlighting).
Usually, nice pictures come out backlit rather than in direct light. In other words, you can get a more dramatic image by taking a picture towards the light. However, since the exposure setting is fixed on the disposable film, you can't forcefully fire the flash or set the exposure from suitable to superior. Therefore, taking pictures with the sun's back to you prevents the subject from being black.

As in the photo above, if the sun is behind the person taking the photo, take it in the situation to avoid the subject (especially the person) coming out black. There is only one exception.

Just after the sun has completely set over the horizon, if you take a picture looking in the direction of the sun, you can get a rather dramatic image like the picture above. Of course, except where there is sunlight, everything is expressed in black. However, if you look at landscape photos, you should take backlit photos because you may want to emphasise the setting sun as part of the area where the light does not reach appears black. However, one thing to keep in mind is that you can't get this feeling when the sun is still high because the sun is too bright and even in broad daylight, the light is too strong to get this feeling.
With the Kodak Funsaver disposable camera, you can get really great pictures simply by remembering the above two things.
Of course, if you want to get a little greedy and get great pictures even in backlight, you might want to try a manual camera!
