Fuji DL-80

The Fuji DL-80 is a 35mm camera from Fuji and was built in the early 90s. The 35mm camera was also sold under the name “Fuji Discovery 80”.

The lens of the Fuji DL-80 cannot be replaced. 35 mm is the focal length of the lens. The 35 mm camera is equipped with an autofocus.

The 35 mm camera has a built-in meter for measuring the correct exposure. The exposure settings are automatically adjusted by the Fuji DL-80 and cannot be changed. The camera detects the film speed using the cartridge’s DX encoding. The Fuji DL-80 comes with a built-in flash. Power is supplied by two AA batteries (eBay / Amazon*).

Films for the Fuji DL-80

Without 35mm films, the Fuji DL-80 does not work. 35mm films are still being produced and are developed by most photo laboratories without any problems. Nice films for black-and-white or color images are the Ilford HP5* and the Kodak Gold 200*.

Of course there are many other manufacturers of film material. There are still a good number of providers, especially for the 35mm format. Suitable films are available from Foma, Rollei, Adox or Lomography.

The film is automatically transported by the camera. A new roll of film usually holds 36 frames.

Camera appreciation

How is the current value of the camera assessed? Unfortunately, the camera cannot be sold at a high price, since it is a basic model that was already priced in the lower segment when it was launched. In addition, there is an abundance of cameras of this type.

The value at this point depends heavily on their functional state. The possible additional scope of delivery can also have an influence. Currently, the average price for a used copy is 38,30 Euro.
