This one-time-use camera is loaded with MAX Versatility Plus 800 Film / New! Compact Design / Indoor/Outdoor Use / 27 Exposures / Ektanar Lens

Good Value, but beware of Processor Policies.

I work at a professional photo lab, and I can attest to the quality of the film inside this camera. It produces results comparable to the Kodak PowerFlash -- that is, it performs superbly for outdoor and bright indoor shots, but it will tend to give grainy images in low-light situations.

The "Free CD" that you get with processing varies depending on who processes your film. As an example, at my lab, the customer only receives the free CD if he opts to have his order sent to Kodak for processing. Ask about your local photofinisher's policy on the free Kodak CD *before* you drop off your memories!

The Kodak Plus Digital camera comes loaded with Kodak 800-speed film.

If you need a camera that performs well in low-light situations, I recommend the Kodak HQ Max Versatility camera.

Not digital, Kodak should be ashamed

Despite the name, and the assertions of some sales people, this is not a digital camera. It is a one-time-use film camera with an inflated price that gives you a "free" Kodak Picture CD when you have the film processed. The problem with this plan is that many film processors either don't know, or conveniently seem to forget, about the free Picture CD and they charge you their normal price for it. You already paid for it in the price of the camera. It only costs $2 to $3 to get a Picture CD when your film is processed, so get an inexpensive disposable camera and avoid the hassle of convincing the film processor that they owe you a free CD. The "Maximum Versatility" film used in this camera does not produce particularly good pictures (then again, I guess no disposable camera produces outstanding pictures), it just gives tolerable pictures under a wide range of conditions.

Since this is NOT a digital camera, Kodak should be ashamed of themselves for putting the word "digital" anywhere on the thing. I can see no purpose for it other than to deceive unwary buyers.
