What kind of camera to get?

Any Camera that will take the typical 35mm film will work for this class.  Students will have no problem getting high grades with the most basic point and shoot cameras available.  However, a student who uses a fully manual camera will be challenged more and in the end learn the photographic process much more in-depth.  Don't bring your own film! 99.9% chance it won't work. We only process black and white film. If it says C-41, it won't work.

What not to get?

This is 110 film camera... no Bueno.

Large and medium format... very cool, but not for this class, sorry.
Picture
Polaroid- Still Cool but, No.

Of course a Digital will not work.
