I am looking for disposable black and white cameras. Does anyone know who makes them, and where to buy them?

Thanks,

Laura

I remember seeing them some time ago, but I dont think I have seen a disposable camera with black and white film for a while. Kodak may still be putting one out with T400CN in it. Another aproach is to load one with something like T400CN or XP2 yourself. They arent that dificult to reload. Just tell the processor that you want your camera back so you can reload it again. I do it all the time for a camera to bang around in my fishing vest, only I use HP5 and process it myself. A few days ago I even frankensteined two of them together to make a stereo camera to carry fishing.

Two disposable cameras (with Ilford XP2 Super and HP5+) are listed at B&H Photo.

I have opened up a kodak disposable camera carefully and removed the film cassette. I had the lab at walgreens develop it and asked the young lady there to return the empty cassette. I then reloaded the cassette with tmax 400 film and I am currently using the camera over again. On my next vacation, I am going to have a couple of these cameras ready for my kids. We can process the film in my dark room.

I have also tried opening a Fuji disposable camera - I had to break it to get the cassette out making the camera unusable.
