126 slides are the second-most common slide format we scan at EverPresent. They’re made by putting 126 film in a normal-sized slide mount. 126 slides’ images are square, not rectangular like their 35mm cousin. Check out our 35mm slide page if yours are one-inch rectangles. While we also digitize 126 negatives, the film used in 126 slides is color positive. Hold your slide film up to the light, and it’ll look just like whatever was photographed. Kodak 126 film came out with the Instamatic camera in 1963. The camera was a huge success – Kodak manufactured more than 50 million by 1970! One reason people love the Instamatic so much is because the photo film is easy to load. The 126 format comes in a cartridge that simply pops in and out of the camera.
