A 1998 Cam alternative with real rolls.

1998 Cam offers over 100 film stocks with dust, grain and light-leak overlays, and its App Store listing promises "no waiting, no darkroom". DisCam takes the other path: ten films, rolls with a shot counter, and prints that develop in front of you, one by one or a whole roll at a time.

The darkroom is the fun part

In DisCam, each Instant print slides out of the camera and develops on screen, coming up from blank like a real instant photo. On a Disposable roll the photos stay hidden until you develop the roll, and then they all develop together.

A date stamp with options

Choose orange, white, green or black digits, Classic or Solid segments, standard or italic, four date formats and any corner, with or without the time. Save or share each print with the date or without it.

Which should you pick?

If you want the biggest choice of looks, retro video and instant results, 1998 Cam has them. If you want a camera that feels like a disposable, with rolls, a counter and prints that develop, try DisCam.
