==History== [[File:Kodak Instamatic 192 camera (filtered etc).jpg|thumb|Kodak Instamatic 192, a typical 110-format pocket camera, with 110 film and "Magicube" flash cartridge (with extender)]] The 110 cartridge was introduced by Kodak in 1972 with Kodak [[Pocket Instamatic]] cameras with Kodachrome-X, Ektachrome-X, Kodacolor II, and Verichrome Pan film.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=MdQDAAAAMBAJ&q=110+film&pg=PA75|title=Popular Mechanics|first=Hearst|last=Magazines|date=1 June 1972|publisher=Hearst Magazines|access-date=18 May 2018|via=Google Books}}</ref> The new pocket-sized cameras became immediately popular, and soon displaced competing [[subminiature camera]]s, such as the [[Minolta 16]] series, from the market. The 110 film width is 16 mm. A four-frame strip measures 111 mm. The 16 mm film width allowed Kodachrome film in 110 size to be processed on the existing processing machines that processed movie films in the [[Standard 8 mm film]] and [[16 mm film]] sizes. [[Fujifilm]] stopped manufacturing 110 format film in September 2009.<ref>{{cite web|title=Sayonara 110 β Fujifilm discontinues 110 colour negative film |url=http://www.japanexposures.com/2009/10/05/sayonara-110-fujifilm-discontinues-110-colour-negative-film/ |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20091008190507/http://www.japanexposures.com/2009/10/05/sayonara-110-fujifilm-discontinues-110-colour-negative-film/ |archive-date=2009-10-08 |url-status=live |access-date=2009-10-05 }}</ref> Lomography re-commenced 110 film production in 2011.<ref name="110 Film β Lomography Shop">{{cite web|title=110 Film β Lomography Shop |url=http://shop.lomography.com/gb/films/110-film |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130702172949/http://shop.lomography.com/gb/films/110-film |archive-date=2013-07-02 |url-status=live |access-date=2013-06-30 }}</ref> As of 2024, they offer 110 Black and White, Color Negative, and a variety of experimental stocks such as Lomochrome Purple and Metropolis. <ref>{{cite web|url=https://shop.lomography.com/en/films/110-film?country=us|title=110 Film|website=Shop.lomography.com|access-date=18 May 2018}}</ref> [[Estes Industries]] has long marketed several [[model rocket]]s, the most notable being the [[Astrocam]], with a simple 110 camera in the nose; the shutter is triggered when the nose cone separates from the rocket body. Tyco (in their Spy Tech line of toys) made two toy spy cameras in the early 1990s that utilized 110 film, called the Hidden Camera and Reese's Camera. The Reese's Camera was meant to resemble two [[Reese's Peanut Butter Cup|Reese's two packs]] stuck together (it used a generic, likely pre-existing mold, it was just molded in orange and had Reese's stickers on it), while the Hidden Camera came with a removable cardboard cover sleeve with small cutouts for the trigger button and front lens that made it resemble a Good & Plenty candy box. The Hidden Camera had a periscope-like attachment that used a mirror for taking pictures around corners or behind objects. The Hidden Camera's shape and size is similar to that of the Minox B. The only new 110 film available on the market is currently produced by Austrian analogue photography company, [[Lomographic|Lomography]].<ref>{{Cite web |date=5 June 2017 |title=110 Film |url=https://thedarkroom.com/film-formats/110-film/ |access-date=8 November 2022 |website=The Dark Room}}</ref>
