X-Girl Juice Box
Type: 35mm Point & Shoot
The Streetwear Grail. This isn't just a camera; it’s a core memory of 90s alt-culture. Designed by the iconic X-Girl (founded by Kim Gordon, so you know the vibes are immaculate), this juice box-shaped beauty is the ultimate stealth shooter. It looks like a snack, but it captures raw, lo-fi 35mm magic. If you want to stand out while blending in, this is the only gear that matters.
When to Use: For skate park hangouts, underground shows, or city walks where you want to keep it low-key but high aesthetic. It’s the perfect conversation starter that actually delivers on that grainy, nostalgic 35mm look. Best served with a side of oversized tees and zero gatekeeping.
Katie's Tips :
X-Girl Juice Box
It looks like a snack, but it shoots like a 90s dream 🧃🎞️
The Juicebox thrives in bright, indirect sunlight. Because the aperture is small (f/9.5) and there’s no flash, don't try to use this in a dark basement or at a night show unless you want a roll of black silhouettes. For that "X-Girl" look, shoot ISO 400 film and look for high-contrast shadows. The plastic lens creates a natural vignette and a soft "glow" in the corners that no Lightroom preset can truly replicate.
Format: 35mm Film (Standard 135 roll)
Lens: 28mm Fixed-Focus plastic lens (Maximum "lo-fi" character)
Aperture: Fixed at f/9.5 (Optimized for outdoor daylight)
Shutter Speed: Fixed at 1/100s (Fast enough for street snapshots, slow enough for a bit of "vibe" blur)
Focus Range: 1 meter to Infinity
Viewfinder: Miniature optical "pinhole" window for that vintage feel
Key Features: The "Straw" is the shutter button. Press it down to take a photo; twist it to lock the shutter so you don't take accidental photos inside your bag.
Film Type: Compatible with any 35mm film
The "KatieK" Recommendation: Because the aperture is a tiny f/9.5, you must use ISO 400 or 800 film for best results. ISO 100 will likely result in underexposed (too dark) images unless you are in direct, bright sunlight.
Loading: Manual thumbwheel wind and rewind. No "auto-advance" here—it’s all about that tactile "click-click-click."
Power: No batteries required
The Logic: This is a purely mechanical camera. There is no flash and no light meter. It is powered by your own thumb winding the film and your finger pressing the straw. It is essentially "immortal" as long as you have film.
