PERSONAL NOTES

The Kodak Instamatic Reflex is perhaps the best 126 film camera ever made. It's fun and easy to use, it has access to good lenses, but it uses the now discontinued 126 film format.

I liked this camera a lot, I used it for a few years, when I stll had 126 film. I liked the sound it made, and it was my first contact with flashcubes.

I used my very last 126 film in this camera at the George Eastman House, Kodak's temple :-)


CONCLUSION

The Kodak Instamatic Reflex is probably the best 126 film camera, but as it uses discontinued film, I cannot recommend it.
