Camera: Kodak Instamatic 100
Lens is 43mm @ f/11 with shutter speeds of 1/40 or 1/90.
I found a sealed packet of Kodacolour 200 film in the loft. It was in the 126 cartridge format and dated use by 1993. I have no idea if is still usable but for 99p I bought a Kodak Instamatic 100 camera on eBay and will give it a go. If it doesn't work I will load a colour 35mm film into the cartridge (in the darkroom of course) and use it that way. There is a film loading how-to guide on YouTube.
Digital Grey Kard
Finally after waiting three weeks for delivery my 'Grey Card' arrived. So now I can achieve better white balance from my RAW files.
