126 Film other than from Ebay?

[tenyearsafter]

I've had a search on here and cannot see any recent threads (prepares to be proven wrong...). Does anyone know of a source of 126 film apart from the odd one that appears on Ebay?

Thanks

Get hold of an old 126 cartridge in resonablz condition and reload it with the standard 35mm film.
The width is identical although you will have sprocket homes visible on frames.
Videos can be sourced on utube i suspect

Just double checking that you meant 126 (Instamatic cartridge) rather than 127 roll film.

Yep 126 for an instamatic. I've seen some posts about reloading with 35mm and may give it a go thanks but wanted to test the camera, which was a whole one pound at a local junk shop first!

If you develop at home then simply cut a single piece of film to slot in the camera as a one shot / one exposer.
Develop it, view result, decide wether worth progressing further with the project…...Yesy done!
