spiderbraidsPicking up a disposable to cover a specific event in color while having black and white in my regular cameras... sounds familiar :-) Anyways, this time it was a Fuji Quicksnap, 27 exposures for THB600, which was steep, but still the lowest price I could find for a disposable with flash, given that other places were selling them for THB50 more (they also did have Kodak Daylight, 39 exposures for THB580, but that doesn't come with flash, and hence only suitable for daylight)
I couldn't find any info about the film itself on the package, but looking online, it turns out the Quicksnap has less sensitive film than the Kodak, ISO 400 vs ISO 800; that said, the film is apparently Fuji's own Superia X-Tra, otherwise discontinued in box-form :-) Also of note is that you don't have to worry about holding down a button for flash, as the Quicksnap uses a switch for the flash, that even pushes up a small plastic block that lights up, so there's no mistaking whether you have flash on :-) (That small plastic block also means that it cannot be dismantled for reloading as readily as the Kodak; I know from experience) Also, after taking the last exposure, the advance wheel advances the film straight into the cylinder rather than locking the shutter a few more times like the Kodak did, so no chance of losing a great moment to being on the lightstruck film leader :-)

Chinese New Year at Mitr Town, and since it was celebrating the year of the horse, rocking horses have been provided for shoppers to ride :-)
Orange flowering tree at uni
Pink flowers at uni
Local mall inflatable for Chinese New Year in the early morning; a little milky but would probably look more presentable with a little Photoshop tweaking :-)
Pink flowers near the local train station
Yellow flowers at uni, with mourning ribbons in the background
Chinese New Year celebration at the local mall in the early evening, somewhat less milkier than the inflatable shot
Uni employee athletics
Trip to Suphan Buri: Chinese New Year's lanterns still hung up near the market in Song Pi Nong district
True to its name, I took the Quicksnap out of my bag, advanced to the next exposure (much more smoothly than with my usual cameras), took the picture, and put it back in my bag in less than 10 seconds :-)
Large mountain Buddha in U Thong district
Back to normal: Chinese New Year stair decorations at Mitrtown
Uni employee volleyball
Orange flowers
Pink Shower Tree flowers beginning to sprout (and thankfully I finished one of the B&W rolls in time to get them in full bloom in color :-))
Early morning shot of congress and the new bridge under construction
Pink flowering tree at uni
My main event for this roll: The Thailand premiere of Pixar's Hoppers, featuring Pond Narawit (in the green shirt, dub voice of Tom the Lizard), and, taken on a different day, a giant-sized beaver plushie, crop included :-)
Employee sports with sack relay
And finishing the roll: The closing ceremony of the uni employee games :-)
