Updated: “The Smallest 35mm Film Camera Ever Made.”
It’s been several years since I’ve written an article about the smallest 35mm film cameras. Of course, the list hasn’t really changed, as the task of building such gadgets is immense — but my understanding of what makes them great and product photos has evolved slightly — this update encompasses all the new things I’ve learned:
This list features over a dozen cameras in various price ranges with distinct feature sets. Some are expensive, titanium-clad instruments, such as the Minolta TC-1; others are very affordable and still incredibly small.
And by the way, all these film cameras are much smaller than today’s most compact full-frame digital cameras! Even the original Rollei 35, designed in the 1950s, is still lighter and more compact than any full-frame digital camera made today.
So if you want that pocket-friendly full-frame experience or are wondering what your next travel shooter should be, check out this freshly updated list!
