Plastic Half-Size Format 35mm Cameras

The Golden Half is a plastic half-size format 35mm camera by Brooklyn 5 and 10, an online shop specializing in “whimsical gifts”. The fact that it’s half-size (aka half-frame) means each exposure only uses half of the film’s intended frame. A 36-exposure roll of film will therefore allow you to shoot 72 different exposures. Here’s what the resulting frames look like when you get them developed:

You can either cut the frames up into individual photos, or leave them as a diptych if you feel so inclined.

Golden Half cameras are available in three flavors (Zebra, Telegraphy, and plain) and cost $50.
