At least in the US, Instamatic was a Kodak trademark ...

I had the one pictured on the top, with the pop up flash that you had to put a bulb in. I remember when the flashcube ones came out.

Despite my attempt to buy her several other cameras, my mother still has a Pocket Instamatic 110, which used the "flipflash." Does anybody know where you can get 110 film developed? I've struck out with three supermarkets and two chain drugstores.

I also remember my first Polaroid Land Camera, which was the Swinger. Very 70s. Went great with my ToodleLoop Radio.
