Related: About this forumI'm having a crazy amount of fun with a $35 toy instant camera that prints on B&W thermal receipt paper.
Thermal receipt paper is cheap.
The camera also saves the native 8 MP color images to a micro SD card. The quality is about what you find on inexpensive cell phones.
I can make 4X6 inch color prints from those on my Canon G3260 for about five cents each.
I sill like to play with my Polaroid and Fuji instant cameras but those are expensive hobbies.

It spits out the picture in the same place too.

I'd love to see some of your work with this toy instant camera.

Maybe I'll go on a walkabout and take some photos of common objects.
It'd be good for me.
