The Revue Pocket FTM is a pocket film camera. It was distributed by Foto Quelle and presented in the 1980s. The 110 camera was built in Hong Kong. The body of the camera is made of plastic, as known from other pocket film cameras. The color of the body is black, only the shutter button is in green.
The lens of the Revue Pocket FTM cannot be changed. 22 mm is the focal length of the lens. The camera’s widest aperture is f/5.6. In addition to this wide-angle lens, there is a telephoto (Revuenon 44 mm f/8). You can switch back and forth between the two lenses with a switch. The focus of the lenses is fixed.
The correct exposure cannot be measured by the camera. Aperture and exposure time (1/125 s) cannot be changed. There is a built-in flash for taking pictures in low light conditions. This can be switched on by a switch and is located on the front of the camera next to the lens.
Films for the Revue Pocket FTM
The Revue Pocket FTM is equipped with pocket films. These are available again today and are still being developed. Lomography offers a selection of different pocket films.
Possible films for the Revue Pocket FTM are the Lomography Tiger 110* for color photos and the Lomography Orca 110* for B&W photos. The color film is developed using the C-41 process. This is offered by almost every photo lab, but not every lab develops 110 film. For black and white film, which must be developed in special photochemistry, finding a professional developing lab is even more difficult.
The exposure area on the negatives is 13 x 17 mm. There is no automatic film transport. The film has to be rewound by hand.
The dimensions of the camera body are 14.8 x 3.2 x 6 cm. It weighs 205 grams.
The pocket film camera is only available second-hand. The value of a used one is mainly measured by its condition and functionality. But these simple pocket film cameras are not worth much anymore.
