sup /p/, first time poster. This might be the only time I ever come here. Anyway, I recently inherited a Keystone pocket everflash 120 camera from my late grandfather, and I was wondering a few things about it.
First, do any of you have an idea as to when this camera was produced? It's obviously not a digital camera.
Second, the batteries seem to be stuck inside it with some sort of rust, possibly battery fluid. I can't pull them out. Other than that, it's in very good condition. Any ideas?
Third, any idea how much it might be worth? If I can't use it, no point in keeping it. My grandfather was an asshole anyway, so the idea of pawning this off doesn't really phase me.

I don't think they make film for those anymore...

yeah, Kodak still makes the film. Not sure why because they're line of 110 cameras hasn't been made in ages, but most places that carry Kodak probably have some of it kicking around. It's more expensive than 35mm, though, and it's not optimal for enlarging. They're not particularly good cameras, they were just point-and-shoot cameras of yesteryear.

Fascinating, I'll look into that. Any idea about the rust?

can you tell what the batteries are for? my Instamatic has to be cocked manually each time and I would assume yours probably does too, the batteries are probably for the flash.

unless you absolutely need the flash (you dont), the dont waste your time with it if it gives you trouble.

Huhuhuh, I have no idea what they're for. I assume the flash, I've got the instruction manual somewhere.

A friend of mine has a 110 SLR, with a constant aperture zoom lens, it's pretty badass.

It's pretty much worth $0. It might be worth $1 if the batteries hadn't corroded into oblivion, but since they have, $0. Even if it were working, 110 film is difficult to find, difficulter to get processed, and worse than easy-to-find-and-process 35mm in nearly every way.

online price guides say 5 to 10 bucks, but that would be in perfect conditions i guess

It's not rust it's battery acid. Be careful. I wouldn't waste any time with it.
