Another bone-headed idea from Kodak - they created their own film sizes. I have several old medium format cameras that take 120 size film that I can still use. (The rest of the World created cameras for this film) I also have several old Kodak bellows and box cameras that look really cool and probably would still work if film was available.

Yeah, the 110 cartridge cameras were barely adequate - but the '80s repackaging (remember the Disk film?) was worse. I have an old Kodak Tourist folding camera that's still pristine. Pity the film just isn't there anymore. Now you see those old cameras (which used to be fairly collectible) used as retail sales display "props" in places like Ikea.

Back when I was in the Air Force, I had a Pentax System 10 SLR camera that used the 110 cartridge film. It took great pics. And the camera, drive motor, flash, and all my lenses fit in one field jacket pocket.
