Vintage Kodak Disc 8000 Disk Film Camera Retro Point & Shoot Photography Swanky
Do you need this camera? No of course not. Can you take photos with this camera? No. Can you get film for this camera? 😂 No! Can you replace the batteries in this camera? Sure take it to Kodak and for a small change they’ll replace them for you! Ha!
Well how’s is that for salesmanship? Well here comes super BS salesmanship. See what you got is a hankering for some of that sweet 1980s swanky retro cool vibe, I mean just look at it! it’s black and has goldtone metal dude it’s even got a metal wristband. And that unobtainable film problem, solved it’s in the camera already. Now the batteries that’s another problem as that is something only Kodak can replace, out of luck there dude. I’ve even researched this camera and found a website with some information. I have copied and pasted this from James Ollinger‘s camera collection website.
This
8000
was the top of the line. For the extra money you got a self-timer, single-shot and 3-shot burst modes; you got a little LCD clock-alarm built into the cover (which is not integrated with the camera at all, so it's just a tiny travel-alarm), and you got a spiffy gold finish.
Modern Photography
called it gaudy, but that was 1980 and they had no notion of the design horrors the new millenium would bring.
The disc system was a neat idea that flopped badly. It had the same problem that 110 film had—it was grainy and not very good even at 4x6" snapshot print size. My guess about what happened is that someone in the Film Division said that there was going to be a great new color film coming out soon that was going to have extraordinarily tight grain and ultra-fine resolution. It may have been the T-grain films. So the Camera Division designed this thing but the Film Division never delivered. If this were
Polaroid
when Edward Land ran it, they'd have worked on the film until they got it.
Kodak
did not.
So there you go I’ve done more than any other seller on eBay would, I researched, I spent extra time taking photos of this camera all this because I care, how old fashion.
If that’s not enough caring try this, this sweet 1980s retro swanky camera ships for free via USPS First Class Mail.
