Hanimex 35 HF Motor
The Hanimex 35HF MOTOR is an extremely basic, compact camera designed for using 35mm film. Made in China for Hanimex and often described as having "free focus" for its fixed focal length lens, this camera incorporates a flash, a motor for film advancement, but requires manual loading and rewinding of the film. Although official specifications are not available, tests have shown that its lens produces fairly soft images, especially for subjects more than a few meters away, and that its relatively slow shutter (less than 1/100s) can cause motion blur if the subject moves 📷.
Brief History: Made in Hong Kong in the 1990s, the Hanimex 35HF MOTOR represents simplicity in the film camera range, aimed primarily at beginners or those looking for a hassle-free photography experience. Its ease of use and point-and-shoot approach make it perfect for capturing spontaneous moments.

Using a film camera connects you to a long tradition of photography. You are using a technology that has captured historic moments and has been practiced by generations of photographers before you.
