Don't

I don't have any toy cameras. Well, then again, I have this plastique fake Canon that is a fake SLR that they used to sell (maybe still do) claiming it was a $380 value. It has two viewfinders which show different views. Film advance is motorized. One of the worst ripoffs I have ever seen. Can it take photos? Hummm.

Busy anyway, but they talk about "plastic" cameras. My Toyoca 16 is surely a toy camera, but back in the 1950s, even some of the toy cameras were made with metal and glass! The process of slitting film, and I fear the little bugger needs a bit of a CLA rules out this time but maybe I'll try and sneak it into a future year's festivities!

I might pull out my Holga, and load it with some of that Ultrafine film that gets the numbers on the emulsion (toy film?, lol).
