The plastic camera comes with a fixed lens. The lens has a focal length of 28 mm and thus a wide angle of view. The distance to the subject cannot be adjusted on this model. The focus is fixed. The lens has a close focus distance of 100 cm to achieve sharp photos.
The aperture and shutter speed are also fixed. The disposable camera from AgfaPhoto does not have a built-in flash.
The special feature of the model is the waterproof housing. The housing is tight up to a depth of three meters.
The dimensions of the 35mm photo camera are, according to the manual, 10.4 x 6.7 x 3.5 cm. No batteries are needed to take pictures.
Applications
A disposable underwater camera is a great way to capture the underwater world during activities like snorkeling, splashing around in the water, or a day at the beach.
When snorkeling, the camera allows you to capture fascinating underwater scenes, such as colorful coral reefs or exotic sea creatures.
Splashing around in the water, fun moments with family and friends can be captured in crystal clear water. At the beach, the disposable underwater camera allows you to photograph water games or capture happy moments while sunbathing.
Films for the AgfaPhoto LeBox Ocean
What kind of films does the AgfaPhoto LeBox Ocean need? Films of the 35mm format are used. In this case, of course, a film is already inserted in the camera. It is a color film with a sensitivity of ISO 400.
ISO 400 is a good value for taking pictures in different lighting conditions. Since it’s a color negative film, even slight mis-exposures are not a problem. Since there is no flash, you should not take pictures in low light.
The exposure area of the camera has a size of 24 mm x 36 mm. The film roll has room for about 27 pictures. The film is manually wound to the next photo. There is no need to rewind the film.
Development
Once the photos are in the can, you have to hand in the film or the camera for development. Many professional photo labs offer development of disposable cameras.
The C-41 process is an established process for developing color film. This development process is offered by most labs. At the end of the development process are the negatives. From these negatives, for example, photographic prints can be made or they can be digitized with a scanner. These services are offered directly by most providers.
