I always was curious about these cameras.

What, Keystones? Or disc cameras in general? I never paid them any attention when they came out. But, now that my family and friends know that I collect cameras, I've been given a few disc cameras and I have to try and use them - as part of my collection I try to shoot with each camera I have. Here's the camera I used to take the above shot:

Disc cameras in general. Is there any advantage to film in a disc format instead of a roll?

I'd say there's no advantage. And in this case, since the disc format was so tiny, compared to other film formats, that makes disc cameras a distinct disadvantage. I've only started shooting with them because people know I collect cameras and have given me a few disc cameras. And since they're in my collection now, I have to shoot with them, as I'm going through and trying to use every camera in my collection.
