Kodak Single Use Camera

...mum presented me with a Kodak Ultra disposable camera as a gift several weeks ago ! Left with little option by to go out and try it , I was pleasantly surprised . The model I had did not have a flash . That was the first thing I noticed . However at £2.99 I didn't mind too much . Obviously this is a limiting factor with this particular model . I think it normally retails at £3.99 this model . Apparently this was on offer at a £1 cheaper in an ...
...so I was OK. Kodak do have an "Ultra Super Flash " in their disposable camera range for those who want a flash . This retails a little bit more at £4.99 - £5.99 Kodak also have an "Aquasport " and " Ultra Sport" as well in the range - none of which I have tried to date . The black coloured camera itself is very compact and easily fits in the palm of an average sized hand. The film is built in to the camera and must not be tampered with by the ...

Review of Kodak Single Use Camera

Over the last few years Kodak has developed (no pun intended) its single use camera range improving every element from design to picture quality. The Kodak single use range now includes five models: High Definition Daylight: Ideal for outdoor pictures, with extra sharpness. Ultra Sport: Designed for outdoor activities, including water sports as it has a ten metre waterproof guarantee. Ultra Compact Flash: High performance Ultra 2 Formats: Produces ...
...27 pictures and is a Kodak 800 ISO. The camera has come a long way since its introduction and now looks stylish, with its grey surround – a far cry from the old cardboard version that was more embarrassing than the poses you were making! The camera is well built and hardwearing. The camera has a built in flash which automatically goes off each time you take a photo and has a coverage of five metres. It also has a shutter speed of 1/125. ~~Taking ...

Review of Kodak Single Use Camera

...from the ‘big’ names like Kodak and Agfa to the ‘own brand’ ones from Boots or Tescos. I tried the Kodak one even though they are all fairly similar. These usually cost somewhere in the region of £7 to £8 but there are plenty of buy two get one free offers around so keep your eyes peeled. The camera is made to be used just once – hence the term single use camera! It comes ready loaded with a film, usually having 27 ...
...to make before taking a picture, apart from switching on the flash if you need it, you just point and shoot. When the entire film has been used you just take the whole camera to the developers, you don’t have to rewind or unload the film. The only mildly irritating thing if you’ve been used to a modern camera, is that the disposable does not have an automatic wind on facility so you have to remember to wind it on manually after each ...

Review of Kodak Single Use Camera

...table(or guest). The Kodak camera use Kodak film which is good quality. Having said that a camera that cost a few pounds is never going to compete with a top of the range camera. This camera really requires good light and still subjects. I suspect that the lenses are not of the best quality, and maybe when enlarged the pictures will not look so great(not that I have tried to enlarge them). The camera is easy to operate, all you need to do is point ...
...in some red eye. The Kodak model requires that you pay for developing, some other manufacturers provide prepaid envelope so that all you need to do is to post off your camera when finished and wait for the camera to be returned to you. This makes the whole thing even less hassle. I think Argos do special wedding sets complete with development, although these don't use Kodak disposable cameras(they cost 50 for 9 Jazz cameras). The cameras are great ...

Review of Kodak Single Use Camera

...and Fun (also single use) Kodak cameras. I brought three of the Advantix range (variable) and paid £8.99 each for two plus the freebie and I have not looked back since. There are many makes on the market and at Christmas 2000, Boots yet again had a Three for Two offer on their own disposable cameras. If I remember rightly they were around £7.99 each. These cameras come in a range of funky colours, Red, Blue, Purple, Gold, Silver and probably others. ...
...hence the cheaper price. Now for some of the technical data. The film speed is usually 400, and often contains 27 pictures within each camera, but always check the packaging so not to be caught out. Secondly, most disposable cameras have built-in flashes. The cheaper end of the market cameras are the ones which tend not to have them. There is no need to worry about loading film or batteries. They come in the camera and all you have to do is point ...

Review of Kodak Single Use Camera

It’s got to the stage now in our sad student lives, that when we go out to perhaps have a couple of pints, we need to make some sort of record of the evening, (and sometimes mornings events), as we tend to forget what we have been up to. You crazy students getting drunk and causing problems, spending our taxes on beer no doubt I hear you all cry, (I pay taxes as well unfortunately, and they wont give me any of my money back which annoys me, ...
...do not cause any problems however remembering what you did to embarrass yourself the night before is always a good thing to know, in case of Mickey taking the day after. As pen and paper is not a good idea, tape recorder a bit pointless, and video recorder a bit expensive we tend to opt for the trusty disposable camera. It’s great you get 24+3 pictures of unbeatable quality, to remind you of a night out and all for around a fiver, plus developing ...

Review of Kodak Single Use Camera

...so we opted for a Kodak which cost us £8.50 and in the box we got the main one with the flash etc and two daylight cameras with a voucher for free developing on the colour film so in all I think we got a good deal. The good thing is you just use the camera then take it to be developed no messing around with films etc and its good for a one off use, to be honest I wouldn't find myself buying many of them. The one we got had 27 exposures in it and ...
...(a cheaper version other than Kodak I may add) and at the end of the night if any were left on the tables they got them developed but it was great for the guests who didn't have a camera with them as it let them have some memories of the day too. This is not something I myself would use regular but as I mentioned in my review its great for people who don't have a camera and need one in a hurry. ...

Review of Kodak Single Use Camera

...sceptical, I bought one a Kodak Single use camera with flash when I went on holiday. Most of my photos were taken in dark dingy clubs at 3am, so even using the flash, I still wasn't sure if they'd come out properly. This doubt aside, the camera was dead easy to use, wind on the wheel, hold down the flash button until the red light comes on, spot your target through the viewfinder and just press the button. Seemed too good to be true. On collecting ...
...single shot camera but the Kodak is definitely the best. It's smaller than other kinds which is handy if you're going to be carrying more than one, and having dropped a few of them I can verify that they bounce pretty well! A couple of small complaints though, the camera seems to take the picture as if the subject is standing further away, so when you're taking the photo get right up close and fill the whole area of the viewfinder. Another problem, ...

...film, which was a generic kodak film (I think the speed was around 400) and got them developed at boots, where you hand in the whole camera (not all developers can handle disposable cameras, but most can), and I got back some resonably good quality photos, with the focus being best at 2-3m, but acceptable upto about 25m. I definatly prefer a decent compact, but a disposable is a viable alternative if the situation calls for it. ...

...agenda. There they were two Kodak fun cameras with built in flash just waiting for me. It also had the advantage that if any of the disasters mentioned previously happen it was not the end of the world. Well I bought them and gave them to two delighted children, spent a whole couple of minutes showig them how to wind the film on - see how much film was left and how to work the rudimentary flash and job done off they went. One week later and the ...
...school trips - but no kodak disposable camera. Oh well one out of two's not bad. Back to Tesco;s and into their photo developing thingy. Put it in, waited the three days adnd collected the photo's. I have to say that I was quite impressed with the quality of the photographs taken with the camera. Far from being a cheap camera with cheap lenses etc it certainly appeared to me that the quality of photograph was nearly as good as some much much more ...

Review of Kodak Single Use Camera

...fun. I opted for the Kodak HD single use camera. They're quite new but they're absolutely fabulous. The BIG reason is that they have an automatic flash! No more pressing a silly button at the front and then finding out that the flash wasn't charged only after you've wasted a shot! No, this one really works and fast. No more messing around, so taking pictures is really fun! The quality of the pictures are great as well. I opted for teh HD cameras ...
...hangover! Anyway, I chose the Kodak HD singel use camera because i used the HD film in my normal camera and loved it so much, so I decided to give ths a try! Plus this camera comes with a quality Kodak lens. Good pictures depend on the person taking them, but for parties or nights out, a great film plus a good lens means half of the job's done. And the photos actually look like photos when you have them processes - not fuzzy things that look as if ...

Review of Kodak Single Use Camera

...petrol garage and purchase a kodak single use camera. The name of this product says it all. For as little as around £7 you can purchase a camera that once finished with you just get the film developed and then throw the rest away. This is excellent for those of you in an emergency camera needing moment or those who can't afford a posh top of the range camera, but it does have its downside. Firstly the pictures that it produces are not of the quality ...
...Secondly they seem to come out very distant, even if you line the pictures up to the correct squares on the eye part. Overall this is an excellent idea and well worth using for emergencies, places where you could possibly lose it, or to give to your kids who might mess the best one up. The camera is simple to use with a button to take the picture and a wind on. Its not the most glamerous looking product with a carboard outside but so many people ...

Review of Kodak Single Use Camera

I always thought that disposable cameras were a waste of cash. That is until I was given one. Its pretty easy to use, and as long as you remeber to use the flash, the phots turn out great. Unless you intend to use the camera solely for day, do not buy the ones without a flash. It also does not take any photos unless you wind it up. This is great as you do not end up with photos of the floor or of your bag. As a result, I chose to have them at my ...
...cameras gave a personal touch to my wedding photo collection. Although, I would not recommend counting only on the cameras. You may end up with lots of unwanted photos, and nothing particularly special. They are also great for outings, giving to kids for occassions, and for anywhere that a normal camera stands the chance of getting damaged, lost or stolen. There are also special cameras for water. This saves on buying expensive equipment or damaging ...

Review of Kodak Single Use Camera

...which they generally do with Kodak make sure that you put the flash on, as if you dont and you are in a dark place then the photo will not come out. So kodak single use cameras are very simple to use and they are very cheap and can be bought in places like Boots and Argos. I find that the qulity is very good especially for a single use camera. I should know i have used quite a few. I prefer to use single use camera as they dont cost a lot so if ...
...get severall different types of Kodak single use camera, which cost a bit more but have better quality control. They also come in several different colour or you can get the standrad yellow colour depending on your mood. So overall good value for money especially with the quality of the camera. However depends on the type of pictures you are going to take as to whether a single use camera will be suitable. ...

Review of Kodak Single Use Camera

I bought one of these cameras the other week as I was going to a family event and picked up my own camera to find the battery had gone dead and only when I went to change it that I realised it was a special camera battery I needed so off I went to Tesco and couldn't find an appropriate battery so I opted for a couple of single use cameras to tide me over. There was lots to choose from but I went for a name I could trust and that was Kodak. They cost ...
...they came complete with flash. Each camera had 27 exposures so that was enough for what I needed. To be honest there is not much I can tell you about this camera as it is so simple to use just simply point and shoot the only downside I found was that you had to wind on the film yourself rather than it automatically doing it for you. To activate the flash you just simply press the button on the front for a few seconds until the light comes on and ...
