These gorgeous cameras from Ben and Bart are decked out in soft pastel colors, so they double as both an easy-to-use analog cam and a cool flatlay accessory. Each device makes use of basic point-and-shoot operation and has a 35mm film roll and batteries already pre-installed, so they’re totally dummy-proof. They also have a built-in flash, so you can take cute pics even in bad lighting.
Available on Shopee and on Ben and Bart's website.
Ilford HP5 Plus Single-Use Camera (P599)
If you’re already somewhat familiar with analog photography or basic disposable cameras, then the Ilford HP5 may be worth a try if you’re looking to give your film photos a different look. The device is loaded with 35mm black and white film, which will give your snapshots a more dramatic and retro feel. The camera is equipped with 27 shots, so you’ll have no problem documenting an entire event or special occasion in grainy, desaturated pics.

Inferno Regazzi x Rollei Disposable Camera (P890)
This cool camera is the brainchild of two photography brands: Inferno Ragazzi and Rollei. Both notable names in analog, they created a single-use point-and-shoot camera designed to capture sharp, high-contrast black and white pics with fine grain—perfect for capturing candid and energetic moments like intimate parties and nights out with friends.
Available on Lazada and on the Film Filk website.
Kodak M35 Film Camera (starts at P1,500)
If you’ve already tried several disposable cameras, we recommend investing in a basic reusable point-and-shoot like the Kodak M35, which is a great option for beginners or folks who just don’t want to bother with more complicated devices. It’s a little pricier than most disposable cams, but it’ll save you money down the line since you won’t have to constantly buy new cameras. It has a fixed focus lens—so you won’t have to set the focus yourself—as well as a built-in flash that you can switch on or off. Once you’ve finished your 35mm roll, just switch out the film and you can already start taking more pictures even while waiting for your last roll to be developed.
Available on Shopee.
Fujifilm Quicksnap (P779)
The Fujifilm Quicksnap is perhaps the most widely available disposable camera out there, so you can’t go wrong with this no-fuss, tried-and-tested device. It’s loaded with Fujicolor 400 35 mm film that promises that distinctly grainy, faded aesthetic (think '90s style film photos) with 27 snaps built in.
Available on Shopee.
Lomography Simple-Use Analog Camera (starts at P1,350)
Step up your analog photography game with this Lomography camera. It’s as easy to operate as any basic point-and-shoot, but comes with cool color filters that you can put over the flash to give your photos a more distinct look. You can choose from yellow, magenta, and cyan filters (or mix and match them), each of which will bathe your snapshots in a retro-looking flash of fluorescent light. Plus, the model is reusable, so you can try your hand at a variety of hues and photo techniques as many times as you like.
Available on Shopee.
