About Disposable Camera Filter
Disposable cameras from the 1990s produced a recognizable look: warm color casts from cheap film, faded blacks, visible grain, and darker corners from a simple plastic lens. This filter imitates that by raising red and lowering blue, lifting the darkest tones, adding random grain, and drawing a radial vignette. An optional orange date stamp is placed in the lower right corner. Processing happens on a canvas in your browser.

Questions about Disposable Camera Filter
Why do disposable camera photos look warm and faded?
The film was consumer stock balanced for daylight and often processed quickly, and the fixed plastic lens and small flash limited contrast and sharpness. Underexposed frames were brightened in printing, which lifted the blacks and added grain.
