The "Disposable Camera Challenge" is a non-competitive event. The idea is to challenge participating photographers by "leveling the playing field" so that all the participants utilize the same equipment: a 12- or 14-shot 35mm disposable camera.

At the last club meeting in January, photographers will be invited to enter the challenge and pick up a disposable camera from BJ Photo Labs in Waterloo (located at the corner of Phillip and Albert Streets next to the Parkdale Animal Hospital). The challenge is a theme contest: to photograph a number of specific subjects utilizing that disposable camera. The challenge theme will remain secret until the challenge period begins.

Once the camera’s film is exhausted, the photographer will return the camera to BJ Photo for processing. All of the images will be digitally displayed at a social evening to be held on Monday, 9 February 2009.

There are no prizes or awards for this event.
