Disposable Cameras

My father has an expensive digital camera that takes the most amazing photos you could ever want. He takes it everywhere he goes and protects it with his life. It is rather annoying on family vacations when he's being incredibly paranoid about its well-being. I completely understand his fears, but I don't share them. Sure, I own a digital camera. I also own a regular camera. But, when I'm going someplace on a vacation and know that I'm going to be out and about, I choose to stock up on disposable cameras. Much to my amazement several years ago, I purchased one for a beach trip. I didn't expect the photos to turn out too well, but they turned out to be very high quality. I was hooked. With having a disposable camera, I don't worry about damaging it. I don't worry about it being stolen. I can toss it around a bit more carelessly

and packed without taking extra precautions. Granted, they don't take incredibly high quality photos, but I have never had a complaint about them. They even have disposable cameras that you can not only get wet but take underwater with you. I took an underwater disposable camera with me on my Bahamas trip. When the time came to swim with the dolphins and go snorkeling, I got some amazing shots. My only complaint was that sometimes the dolphins would kick up the sand with their swimming and the pictures didn't always come out clearly. The dolphins playful fun couldn't be blamed on the cameras though. More than likely, you have been to a wedding reception that has disposable cameras on each of the tables. Many couples are big fans of having this at their receptions for the candid moments that a photographer doesn't capture. They want the guests to take photos of themselves and each other, along with other moments that the bride and groom would love to have on film. Getting disposable cameras for your wedding reception isn't overly expensive. The expensive part comes when you have them developed. The biggest complaint that I've heard is that when all of the disposable cameras are collected, there are still pictures that can be taken on each of the cameras. Honestly, that's not a big deal. Take the cameras that still have room on them on your honeymoon. Take the extra photos of things yourself. Or, just don't fill them up and pass less for developing less photos. In my opinion, that's nothing to complain about. There are always moments at weddings that people wish could be captured forever. By having disposable cameras for the guests, some of those moments can last forever.
