Kodak gold film 110 process c 412/24/2023 ![]() ![]() I've been wanting to pick up this particular little 110 SLR camera since I first heard about it a few years ago, but the prices were more than I wanted to spend. I thought I could still use the lenses on my mirrorless Pentax Q10 camera, but a couple of weeks later, I was able to pick up a working body for $9.00 with free shipping from ebay. ![]() I originally purchased a body, 3 lenses and a flash, but the body and flash were not functional much to my disappointment.

Even though my parents have been divorced for many years, and I had been very distanced from my father, both of my parents had a significant, meaningful impact on my life. My father passed in early spring, then our beloved family pet beagle, Cinnamon, two weeks later, and now my mother. It's been hard to pick it up again, but I want to finish the project so that I can start the new year with hope for a less painful, loss-filled one than of 2016. I had not been shooting on the project for a couple of weeks as I was taking care of my mother in her battle with breast cancer and I was heartbroken when she passed two weeks ago. There is an on-off switch for the flash, requiring two AA batteries. The camera came in two colors, rose and turquoise, and was a very simple 110 load, point, and shoot camera. A web search for information on the Pazzazz indicated that it was manufactured in Mexico, but the model I have shows a "Made in U.S.A." stamp on the top. Week 46 - Kodak Pazzazz 110 Camera that my stepfather found while going through his desk, which he then gifted to me (along with a few other lo-fi cameras). ![]()
