Well, I think with Kodak it’s the luck of the draw. Some are made well, and some aren’t. Which makes it the wrong camera for a memorable time, e.g. Wedding, Christening. Sometimes they turn out great, but other times they turn out shit.
I thought, maybe that it would turn out to be cheaper. Sometimes the price varies from £3,99 to £4,99, and I pay £5,95 for developing. So, that, I thought would be cheaper in the long ... ...from Argos. You can get some for about £9,00 there, and in the long run it will be cheaper than getting this each time!

This is not always better than a real camera. Let’s get that straight at the beginning! But, it’s odd with this camera, as at times you get a brilliant one, where all of your pictures are crystal clear, and really excellent. But, at other times, you can get a shit one with horrible, blotch pictures, which makes me look like Margaret Thatcher (I do not resemble anything like Maggie, as you’ll see when my pic goes up next month!)
When I first used this, I was shocked by the result. The result was good, and only one picture didn’t turn out. I was thrilled and decide this would not be a one-off, but whenever I needed to take pictures, I would use this!
The second time wasn’t so brilliant. The pictures came out blotchy and they were in the exact same surroundings as the pictures that were taken the previous time. Even in the same room! So, what went wrong?
Well, I think with Kodak it’s the luck of the draw. Some are made well, and some aren’t. Which makes it the wrong camera for a memorable time, e.g. Wedding, Christening. Sometimes they turn out great, but other times they turn out shit.
I thought, maybe that it would turn out to be cheaper. Sometimes the price varies from £3,99 to £4,99, and I pay £5,95 for developing. So, that, I thought would be cheaper in the long run. But, I’ve experienced that it isn’t the best. It’s better if you buy a camera and go to FOTO STOP to get it developed. If you get it done here, they will only take an hour, and you get a free film, so after buying a camera the only cost for the printing of the pictures. No film needs to be bought!
It’s very easy to use, and has no fiddly buttons. It has a simple button to take the picture. A flap you must open to use the flash, and a red button to confirm that the flash is ready. It’s very simple and is labelled, and even my Nan could use it without bother!
The design is a bit of a let down. It’s not modern, it’s not funky, and it looks like a kid has scribbled on it. It is various colours, and has writing all over it, and it doesn’t look very dear. It certainly isn’t the kind of picture you’d take somewhere you’d want look rich!
So, not the best to get, really. The developing can sometimes be a let down, and it anything but reliable. So, only use it on an occasion where the pictures aren’t vital to be kept in the album. But why would you take a picture if it weren’t a memorable time? So, it’s best to get a real camera.
Although these can be handy at last minute, it isn’t always reliable. Leave it, and buy a cheap ‘en from Argos. You can get some for about £9,00 there, and in the long run it will be cheaper than getting this each time!

Why a Kodak single use camera
As is usually the case in the photographic market the branded products tend to give better results than some of the unbranded or lesser known brands of single use camera.You also find that some of the really cheap single use camera's are actually recycled case's that may have been used at least once and have just been resealed and loaded with sub-standard film that gives really poor results.The build quality ... ...loaded into the product is kodak branded film which to be fair is one of the best performers on the market.
Ease of use-
The kodak is very easy to use with full instructions printed on the back of the unit just in case you forget at some point.You have a shutter button on top of the camera which you just press to take the picture(this is positioned more or less in the same place on most camera's both digital and throw-away),a fash button on the ...

Advantages: 2 for 1, easy to use Disadvantages: not the best quality photos
I believe that the people who use disposable cameras fall into 2 catagories, people who don't take many photos and people who only take them at times when a nice camera would get broken.
I definately fall into the second group. If you looked at my photo album, office wall, and walls at home you would see the same 15 or 20 grinning faces nicely spead out across a variety of locations across the world. The only thing which seems to change are the ... ...conned into posing with us. I want my photos to be of my best times, and my best times are the nights out with my friends.
Because of this I have owned a 'good' camera. I know that it would be either left in the first bar we visited or soaked by a spilt pint of lager (double disaster). Instead I opt for the disposables. In the long run this turns out to be a little more expensive but less heart ache when you remember the next morning that it's still ...

Advantages: Cheap and good quality pictures Disadvantages: No flash
I recently went to a friends wedding and was surprised to see that she had bought Disposable cameras for all the guests at the wedding. Usually when you get married half of your guests will bring a camera and you may see the results, you may not. This way everyone took pictures of their view of the wedding and reception and the bride and groom had a fantastic record of things that they might have missed.
We were also ramaze at the results. When ...

Advantages: Very high quality pics Disadvantages: Erm...
Disposable cameras used to be crap. Really bad. For your £8.99 you'd wind up with not much more than a handful of grainy shots, filled with all the classic photography mistakes - red eye, focussing problems and completely the wrong light. As for flashes, we could only dream.
These days, it's all very different. Being the kind of person who tends to lose absolutely everything, cameras being a speciality, I long since gave up trying to have a proper ... ...the best I've found. Okay, so they don't look quite as cool as others on the market (try the Boots ones, if you want mini-i-macs style cameras which come in a range of colours so you can co-ordinate with your party frock) but boy do they do the business. I've just got yet another set back, all night shots, and they are fantastic. They look like they've been taken with a quality camera, not just a non-disposable one. The flash shots are ace, everything's ...

Advantages: Easy to use and not big and bulky. Disadvantages: none
This cameras are brilliant for the children, if they go on an outing with friends and they want to take a camera you are not worried about them damaging an expensive one.
The camera is easy to use and very compact so you are not carrying a big bulky item around with you. The picture quality is excellent but you have to make sure that you are not too far away from the items that you are photographing, obviously you don't get a zoom lense on a camera ...
