Disposable camera for disposable pictures

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 clothes, hairstyles and occasionally a girl that one of us 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...

Review of Kodak Funsaver Disposable Camera with flash

Single use camera for one off occasions

Advantages: Simple to use
Disadvantages: None

...Well I was off on a day out at a theme park and I was a bit wary of taking my digital camera is a bit bulky I didn't want to take the risk of losing it so my wife suggested we buy a disposable camera to see what they were like so I went out and purchased a Kodak. I wasn't sure at first but I was pleasantly surprised. Although there are a lot of types of these cameras available very cheap I was wary 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...

Review of Kodak Single Use Camera

Kodak M863

Advantages: Good picture quality, LCD screen, versatility
Disadvantages: None!

...It would appear, the humble digital camera is somewhat of the ?pinnacle? in reviewing on these review sites?partly because it must be one of the main products that ?external? customers use to choose a product. So, without further ado, here?s the Kodak M863. Lovely stuff. My particular version comes in a black matt finish with a strap to place around your wrist ? being a bloke it was a far more obvious choice that the potential vivid pink option! Now, im hardly a connoisseur when it comes to digital cameras; the only other one I?ve previously owned was a ?Premier? one. (yep, never heard of them either!) But the first thing that strikes me about this camera is the large detailed 2.7 inch LCD screen on the back of the camera. With the camera being 8.2 mega-pixels; which is probably far too many to make any difference than, say, 6 mega...

Review of Kodak EASYSHARE M863

kids and Kodak Fun cameras

Advantages: cheap and easy to use
Disadvantages: film speed

...enough - one camera missing!! Enquries led nowhere much - not in the bus, not in the school lost property cupboard - full of various items from various 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 expensive cameras would produce. Ok it was limited by the fact that most of the photographs appeared to be taken in the bus on the way down there (!!!!!) and did also contain a ceiling ( location unknown), a finger - extreme close up (owner unknown...

Kodak Convert!

Advantages: cheap and affordable quality camera
Disadvantages: Battery charging

...INTRODUCTION ------------------------ Since the introduction of Digital picture frames over a year ago my dad has been desperate for one. He loves gadgets and technical things, so when he saw the digital frames he really wanted one. Therefore I have known since Easter what I would get him for Christmas. I didn't count on the many different offers and packages. Last month I ordered the Kodak frame from Amazon and was very happy until I picked up the Argos 'Christmas offer' catalogue. The catalogue was offering a reduced produce Kodak C613 camera with the same frame. As my frame had not arrived I decided to cancel and go with Argos (less said about Argos the better). The reason for all of this I hear you ask?well there is a point and the point is that I have never liked Kodak, since the day I used my mate's camera. It was so difficult...

Review of Kodak EASYSHARE M753

Wear once and dispose!

Advantages: Ease of use, no solution needed
Disadvantages: Slightly more expensive than monthly lenses

...A few months ago I decided that I would like to make life even easier for myself when it comes to contact lenses. I had been using monthly contact lenses for quite a while but was beginning to feel over the second half of the month, that the lenses were sometimes irritating my eyes. Also whenever I was away for the weekend I would have to carry a large container of solution to clean the lenses with. The answer to these problems I reckoned would be to change the type of lenses that I used to daily disposable lenses, which as the name of them suggests you simply wear them once before disposing of them. Being happy with the overall service that I had been receiving with Specsavers, I phoned my local branch to ask if I could change over to daily disposable lenses. They informed me that this would be no problem and booked me...

Review of SpecSavers Easyvision Daily Disposables

Disposable razors at the premium end of the market

Advantages: Quick, easy, decent shave
Disadvantages: Expensive for a disposable

...INTRODUCTION When travelling I still couldn't get hold of my usual disposable weapon, the Gillette Blue II Slalom. Disappointed with my Gillette Fusion experience, I thought I'd try something new. I have already declared my unswerving allegiance to a wet shave and I now put my cards on the table regarding manufacturer. For a long time I've been a Gillette man; I suppose we all have our allegiances when it comes to shaving. I can't even explain mine, so long has it been thus. I seem to vaguely remember starting off with Bic disposables in my youth, inherited from my father, but that was only a passing fancy. Ah that brings back memories; lathering up with a brush and hacking my face off with a blunt single blade. This would be the first Wilkinson Sword product I'd ever tried; it felt like cheating on my girlfriend. QUATTRO...

Review of Wilkinson Sword Quattro Titanium Disposable Razors

Single Use Cameras - Are they worth it.

Advantages: Easy to use. Ideal for kids, or if it stands a chance of getting damaged, lost or stolen. Affordable. Can also buy specialized cameras such as water proof, which is great for the beach.
Disadvantages: Can be expensive. If you think you may need more than 1 film, can be bulky. It looks cheap.

...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 wedding. Although I also had a professional photographer, the 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...

Boots Disposable Earplugs

Advantages: Block out all noises, soft and easy to use and not too expensive
Disadvantages: MAy cause an infection if you are not careful

...I have been using Boots Disposable Earplugs for a few months and I can honestly highly recommend them to anyone who needs to block out noises during the night, in order to aid restful sleep. I have been married for forty-five years and I would say that during the past ten to fifteen years my wife has developed an annoying habit of snoring very loudly throughout most of the night. She tells me i am also guilty of this, but obviously as i am asleep i am unaware. Boots Disposable Earplugs have been a Godsend to us both and have allowed us both to sleep peacefully and awake refreshed the following morning. I discovered these almost accidentally. I was in Boots the Chemist one day actually looking for some corn pads when I came across these. Boots apparently make a fairly wide range of earplugs but what attracted me to these is that...

Review of Boots Soft Disposable Ear Plugs

Say Cheese

Advantages: so easy to use
Disadvantages: you need to get relatively close to the subject

...I have always been sceptical about disposable cameras of any description . This is based on the principle that quality comes at a price particularly in photography. Imagine my horror therefore when my 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 ex catalogue shop. Do be careful when buying this type of product that the camera has a good "use by" date . This should be printed underneath the camera and may not always be visible...
