Boots Polar Bear Camera

The is camera is one of a range of animal cameras distributed in the UK by the highstreet Chemist chain, Boots. Other than that - very little is known about it other from the unsurprising fact it was made in China.

As well as the obvious Polar Bear design on the front - the camera also has a strap toggle in the shape of a Penguin. Like the similar Giraffe camera it also has a small built in flash gun.

The camera does have some neat child friendly features:

  1. Child proof film door catch
  2. Child proof battery compartment door
  3. Child proof film rewind (uses a seperate key)
  4. Big wind on wheel/knob

Unfortunately the rewind key tends to get lost as this is seperate from the camera and supposed to kept by the adult to use when the film needs changing. Fortunately the one supplied with the Giraffe camera fits this one too.
