Frequently asked questions

📷 The Cameras

Is the mndr35 reusable?

Yes! Unlike disposable cameras, the mndr35 is fully reusable. Shoot your roll, get it developed, load a new one, and keep shooting — for years.

Do I need any experience to use a film camera?

None at all. The mndr35 is point-and-shoot: wind, frame, click. Every camera comes with a simple guide, and our Instagram is full of tips if you're just starting out.

Does the camera come with film?

The Film Package includes your camera with a film roll installed and ready to shoot. The Camera Only option ships without film — you can add rolls to your order anytime.

What's the difference between the mndr35 and the Kodak Charmera?

The mndr35 is our own reusable 35mm camera, available in 6 colors plus special editions. The Kodak Charmera is a licensed Kodak keychain-size camera we stock in 2 options. Both shoot real film — pick based on your style.

Does it have a flash?

Yes — the mndr35 has a built-in flash, perfect for night outs and indoor shots.

How many photos can I take per roll?

A standard 36-exposure roll gives you 36 shots (sometimes a bonus frame or two if you load carefully).

🎞️ Film & Developing

What film does the camera use?

Standard 35mm film — the most widely available film format. Any 35mm roll (ISO 200 or 400 recommended) will work.

Where do I develop my film?

Any photo lab that processes 35mm film. In Cairo and most major cities there are several labs — DM us on Instagram and we'll point you to ones we trust near you.

Do you sell film rolls?

Yes, we stock 35mm film rolls on the website. Film rolls are non-returnable once the seal is opened.

How do I know when my roll is finished?

The winding wheel will stop advancing and the frame counter will show you've hit the end. Don't force it — rewind and take it to a lab.
