Does any know about that? where can i find disk that this camera use? I bought this one for 50 cents from one the store and I read about this and as per Kodak this camera "was for promotion or premium use by other companies--not available in retail stores."

Obsolete. I don't think the disk camera ever caught on much. I suppose the film for that camera went to the same place as all the 8 track tapes. My mom had one that she used for a short time a couple of decades back.

It would be a nice piece of camera history, however. Would be pretty neat in a display.

When Polaroid won their lawsuit against Kodak, we had our Kodak instant camera replaced free with the newest thing, a disk camera (mid-80's). It was crap! The disks never advanced properly, so I'd have one exposure overlapping the one before and after it. I think I took about 3 disks worth before I gave up on it.
I wasn't surprised when they VERY quickly faded from the scene!
Apparently the camera went out of production in '89, but the film was produced until 1998.
