Fujifilm launches Quicksnap disposable camera

By Tim Levy and Katerina Tsompanis | 28 August 2025

Fujifilm has officially introduced its Quicksnap disposable camera to the Australian market with a launch event last night at Jam Bar in Sydney.

The venue, known for its vinyl collection and Japanese-inspired snacks and cocktails, set the tone for an evening that blended nostalgia with a contemporary audience. Guests received goody bags with a Quicksnap camera included and were invited to take part in a live demonstration on how to develop B&W film, offering a rare chance to see the process behind the prints.

The Fujifilm Quicksnap comes preloaded with Fujicolor 400 ISO film and provides 27 exposures. Retailing at around $29.95, the disposable camera sits close in price to a single 36-exposure roll of 400 ISO film, which typically costs about $27.99 on its own. For newcomers to film photography, the Quicksnap offers a simple entry point: it features a built-in flash, requires no settings adjustment, and keeps everything in focus beyond one metre.

Film photography has seen a strong revival in recent years, particularly among Gen-Z, who have embraced the medium for its slower pace and distinct aesthetic. Fujifilm’s Quicksnap provides a way for this group to experiment with film without committing to the cost of a camera body, while also encouraging those who enjoy the process to eventually step into reusable film cameras.

By combining a product launch with an experiential look at developing film, Fujifilm’s Sydney event highlighted how the company is positioning the Quicksnap as both a tool for casual use and a bridge into the wider world of film photography.

With Kodak recently being rumoured to be on the brink of extinction, it's reassuring to see that Fujifilm is still a key player in film production.
