Kodak MAX Water & Sport One-Time Use Camera - Whether it's a weekend by the pool, or a week-long vacation at a resort, it's always a great idea to take pictures so you'll enjoy the event for years to come. But when you're around the pool, it's not a great idea to use your regular camera. That's why Kodak has created the MAX Water & Sport One-Time Use Camera! This camera takes the quality pictures you'd expect from Kodak - but at underwater depths of up to 35 feet! And with the rubberized grip, you can get a handle on the camera in slippery conditions. Sunscreen Resistant Impact Resistant Color - Blue

Excellent quality, and provides vital insurance if you will be near water.

I work at a professional photofinishing lab, and I can attest to the quality of the film inside this camera. The Kodak Water & Sport camera provides excellent results both in and out of the water. It performs comparably to the Kodak HQ Max Versatility camera; it produces a high-quality image in most situations.

There is no flash on the camera (though using a flash underwater can produce unpredictable and sometimes undesirable effects), so do not plan on using it in low-light situations.

Film does not like to get wet, and accidentally dropping your camera in water could mean that all the pictures you just took are lost forever. So even if you don't plan on taking your camera physically underwater on your family boating expedition, you might still want to consider purchasing a Water & Sport camera as insurance against "splash damage".

If you need a flash, or if you plan to take pictures at depths greater than 50 feet, you'll need to consider a professional underwater camera or camera housing.

Good camera for the price

I just used this camera for a dive in Mexico (my second dive, first attempt at underwater photo).

Although the camera has no flash, it worked perfectly fine at depths up to 12 meters. I guess the lack of flash can be a problem for some other locations or if outside is not a sunny day, but at least for Cancun this camera did the job perfectly.

The wheel that turns the film does a specific noise when the film is correctly positioned and ready for a new shot; this noise is different from when there are no more positions on camera, and the wheel turns continuously - so if you pay attention you'll know when the film is over, even if the position indicator may still show 1 or 2.

Yes, the pictures are grainy (I think it uses ISO800 film so this is expected), but they look "clean" when scaled down on computer at 800x600, and I think the prints will look acceptable, too.
The pictures will also show vignetting, but this is nothing unexpected for such fixed focus disposable camera lens.

Out of 27 positions, I got 20 pictures I consider good enough and "keepers". The picture turned out crisp - only 2 of them are motion blured. Try to stay still when taking pictures and you'll be fine. For best colors, take pictures of close divers/fishes (less than 1-2 meters away)...

We also used a non-disposable 35mm plastic camera with case and underwater casing, but the Kodak yielded better quality pictures.

As for the viewfinder, it is a bit harder to look through it with the googles on, but I got better framed pictures than with the non-disposable camera that had a "target" sistem.

If you want to spend only 10-20$ and don't plan investing more on underwater casing for digital cameras, this camera is a good choice.
I don't regret buying it.

Much better photos than expected

Nice camera and it takes great photos but it bugs me to buy disposable cameras when non-disposables aren't much more expensive. So why did I buy it? Because I left my non-disposable at home when we went on vacation! Not a bad little camera, though.
