Retirement Party Wheel of Fortune

Taken with a Halina TeleDisc 328 camera in week 316 of my 52 film cameras in 52 weeks project:

Disc cameras are ideal for small gatherings, you can make a wheel of 15 separate portraits on the disc.

I still have a handful of unused discs, though the youngest of these is over 20 years old. This was a Kodak disc which I developed in the Tetenal C41 kit.

Many disc cameras had built in, non-replaceable batteries, and inevitably these tend to fail after 30 years, but the Halina takes AA batteries so that wasn't a problem here. It boasts two lenses, 12.5mm and 25mm, the flash works, and although it sounds a bit hesitant, the motor advance the disc.
