The point and shoot camera has a built-in light meter. The exposure settings are automatically adjusted by it. The camera comes with a built-in flash.
Films for the Nikon RF10
The Nikon RF10 requires 35mm film according to the manual. 35mm films are still produced today. They can be developed in most laboratories. The exposure area of the 35mm photo camera is 24 mm x 36 mm. The film is transported automatically.
For black-and-white pictures you can use Kodak T-Max 400*. For color images, the Kodak Portra 400* is a possibility.
The colour film is a colour negative film and is developed in the C-41 process. This is offered by almost every photo lab. For example, you can give your films to most drugstores for development. The black and white film has to be processed in a special black and white developer.
