Kodak EKTAR H35
Score: 65/100
Duluvulu DC101
Score: 71/100Rankings
The Duluvulu 4K camera offers a compelling starter kit with 4K video, 48 MP stills and a flip screen, but its small sensor, digital zoom and limited low-light capability keep it in the budget segment.
The Kodak Ektar H35 is a ultra-compact, reusable half-frame film camera aimed at beginners. It offers a high shot count per roll, built-in flash, and a nostalgic design, but sacrifices image sharpness and creative control due to its plastic lens and fixed focus.

Professional reviewers consider the Ektar H35 an excellent entry-level film camera, lauding its affordable half-frame format, ultra-simple operation, and nostalgic styling, while acknowledging the trade-off of a plastic lens and lack of manual controls.
Everyday users overwhelmingly praise the camera for its beginner-friendliness, high shot count per roll, and retro look, but repeatedly mention battery drain from the flash, soft image rendering, and occasional film-handling quirks.
Reviewers praise its surprise-sharp 4K video and high-resolution daylight photos, while noting the lack of optical zoom and modest low-light performance as expected trade-offs for the price.
Users love the flip screen and complete starter kit, yet complain about noisy low-light footage and the bulky AVI video files.
