A little while back the folks from Four Corner Store asked me to pick out a camera and I chose this special Golden Half Camera. I picked this camera mostly based on it's cute appearance, but it turned out to be one of my favorite toy cameras ever. Here are some shots from my first roll…
I am pleasantly surprised by this roll and can't wait to take more. I love the way the images are spliced together with irregular lines. I'm super excited to try more image pairing on my next roll. It takes 35mm film too… XOXO. elsie

Those turned out very well. I agree, it’s a super cute camera! Can’t wait to see more photos!

Very cool! So each picture actually has two pictures?! With the line down the center? I’m so checking this out. I’ve got some 35mm film that needs using! Do you have any other 35mm toy cameras that you like?
Not only do you feature awesome pictures, you feature cameras that take the pictures. It seems like such a no brainer and so helpful, but nobody else does it!
Katie, yes, each photo has two frames on it! It’s really fun.
I haven’t had as much luck with 35mm cameras, but i also LOVE the Lomo Super Sampler. I have a roll fromt that too, will probably post it in the next week! 😀 It takes 4 frames per photo and they happen really fast… sorta like a really fast photo booth. XO
I got one of these and when I had it developed they did each shot as a 4×6. They turned out horrid! Where did you get yours developed? They turned out great!!
Your pics have come out really well! I was given a golden half camera for birthday and I love it but I was thinking about getting a flash for it. Does your one have a flash? Or is there one you could recommend? I do love your photography posts! <3
I’ve been wanting a toy camera! They seem so fun. I have a random question (that would probably be better asked via email, but I’ll start here): how do you do the custom post titles? (font, color) I also have a typepad blog & have wondered if I could this. It looks like there must be a way. 🙂
Love that camera. And so lucky that it takes 35 mm film. I need to start using my cameras again that take this film, although I will have to find a place to get them developed first.
Where did you get the photos developed? Did you have any trouble?
I had a Diana Mini camera which also shot half frame and found Boots had a real problem developing it. Puts me off buying half-frame again as most of them didn’t turn out! xx

oh this is so cool! At first I thought you’d just edited the images together, but that’s amazing that they come like that right out of the camera.

Love that camera. And so lucky that it takes 35 mm film. I need to start using my cameras again that take this film, although I will have to find a place to get them developed first.
You’re making me covet toy cameras….maybe something I’ll have to look into playing with. 🙂
