Have a couple of Canon Ixus digital cameras you can have one free will include charger not sure if have a spare SD card but these are peanuts these days. If you don’t get a film one you are looking for.

@Qebrus - Lush! Yeah let me know if you've got anything.
@Foreigner65 - That's really kind, thank you! I'll definitely give you a shout if I can't find a film camera.
@Pifko - Cheers for the heads up! Looks lovely but I'm after something more compact for the tour. Should definitely go to someone who'll use it more than I will in the near future.

I have this Olympus Trip S, the battery compartment door needs a bit of tape/blue tack to keep the batteries in (2xAA) - no corrosion in the compartment.
Last time I used it it was fine including the rewind motor but this was probably 15 years ago, the flash certainly works as just tested it. No scratches on the lens.
100/200 and 400 ISO settings and that's about your lot.
I've an unopened/out of date 400ISO Trueprint 24 exposure roll that may or may not be any good but happy to include, say £13 posted?

If nothing else works out the Boots disposable cameras can be a great substitute.

Just had a look and I must have a sold them a little bike ago as I’ve not only got the one I use sorry!
I'm heading off on a long overdue cycle tour on Sunday and thought it would be nice to get some pictures on the way. A friend recommended getting a cheapo point and shoot film camera instead of taking a DSLR.
So, has anyone got anything for around £20/30? Just needs to be:
-Working (obvs)
-Small and sturdy for chucking in a bar-bag
-Uses film that's easy to get hold of
-Either in London for a pickup this week or can post ASAP
I'm not hugely up on film photography so do let me know if there's anything I've got horribly wrong or should be looking out for. Or if I'm a fool for considering this and should just enjoy looking at nature with my eyes.
