See if you can get fifty rolls through it before in falls apart or you're visiting a specialist for a skin graft on your thumb.
It is the perfect camera now that you're being drug around by a younger, stronger dog.

All I got ouuta that was post more pics taken with the Reto. Fine.
re. the Reto, yeah for that $20 you can actually buy an amazing P&S camera like the Samsung AF Slim Zoom etc etc.
But that's not the point. The Reto is new, and intentionally lo-fi and does give a unique look. It's fun. That's what it's all about.

As the lens is er, low contrast, it works best in bright sunny conditions w a nice punchy B&W film. Yeah it’s low fi with smeary sides but so what? Use it knowing that. I do find the images remarkably pleasing to look at, because of the faults.
And it’s all your fault posting the shots you took w yours..
How many rolls have you put through yours? What is the life expectancy of these things? 20 rolls?I'm a slow shooter, I've only put maybe 5 rolls through? Doesn't really matter the life expectancy, if it breaks just buy a new one. I've gotten my money's worth and then some in terms of fun and results. You sound like a Leica user. ;p
I dunno, my brand new RETO hasn't had any problems with scratching film yet.
I'm not as prolific as @Desmolicious, but at least my right thumb still has flesh.
Slightly haphazard photo, taken blind out the sunroof approaching Red Canyon Arch, Dixie National Forest. I was the passenger and not the driver, hence haphazard and not hazard. Rotated to level the horizon and cropped during post processing.
RETO Ultra Wide & Slim, Kentmere Pan 400, developed in LegacyPro L110 at 1:31 for 5.5 minutes.
Last autumn I shot a roll of Washi-S, a sound recording film for cinema projection that can also be used for photography. It has ultra-high contrast and works best in diffuse lighting. I wanted to try it again in winter to see if I could explore its mysterious qualities a bit more. I have one more roll that I'll try when we get some serious snow, but here are a couple from late December, shot with Canon P, 35/2.5 Color-Skopar.

Right thumb? My film advance flesh destroyer is in on the left side.
Cool pic! And impressed by how stable it is, with me unless I really pay attention I get motion blur. Sure I shouldn’t take pics while using my pogo stick but still.
That side smearing really looks similar to what I would get from my Nikon 50 1.4S - the rangefinder lens - when shot wide open.

Breaking the thread rules a bit, but I've been digitizing negatives and I stumbled upon my first ever double exposures shot on my Hasselblad 503CW.
