    I had a disc camera when I was younger but mine wasn't a Kodak. John (Almo) posted a self portrait he took holding a disc camera a few years ago. According to his post, there are some places where you can get the film for them, but that was back in 2005.

    I had one of those - it broke fairly quickly. I have a GREAT shot that I took in Rio de Janeiro with it - unfortunately the negative is the size of a baby's toe nail!

    I briefly had one, either that or I borrowed it. I remember negative size being a real problem.
