From vinyl records to cassette tapes, it’s fascinating to see these technologies are not extinct or obsolete relics or lost arts, but actually pieces of history that people want to keep in their lives.

Fujifilm, a pioneer in the photography business since the '30s, has taken notice and they are answering the call by launching Fujifilm Prints, a new product lineup meant to bring the experience of printed photographs to the new generation.

The Fujifilm QuickSnap is a compact, single-use camera. Back in the day, we just called these disposable cameras, because they only had a limited set of exposures. Once you ran out of exposures, you could do nothing more than have them developed.
