Disposable digital and film cameras (also called single-use
cameras) provide a cheap and easy alternative for photographers.
They offer an option for times when you don't want to risk your
expensive equipment but you do want to take some photographs.
For example, what could be a scarier combination for a
photographer than an expensive piece of camera equipment and
water? While professional underwater photographers (or serious
hobbyists) are willing to spend a lot of money on their
underwater cameras, what about the rest of us? Disposable
underwater cameras offer an inexpensive alternative. After all,
we may only want to take pictures one time on a snorkeling
vacation. Why should we have to buy or rent a lot of expensive
equipment?
Disposable underwater cameras are ideal for a wide variety of
outdoor adventures where water, sand and rough use might come
into play. Use them underwater, (many models are actually
waterproof from 15 to as much as 50 feet underwater) but also
use them above water for many outdoor shots in sunshine or on a
light cloudy day at the beach, the pool, or even the desert.
An underwater disposable camera can also be called an
all-weather camera since it is ready for anything at anytime.
It's ideal for shooting outdoors in wet and even snowy
conditions. Think of it as not only waterproof but also
weatherproof, allowing you to use it to get some great shots in
the great outdoors. Use it in the rain, on the slopes, on a boat
or in the ocean. Use it while snorkeling, skiing, fishing,
boarding, or surfing. Take great photos of sunsets, wildlife,
waterfalls or crashing waves.
The disposable underwater camera you buy should be extremely
durable and rugged. It should be easy to grip and take pictures,
even with gloves on. It should fit in your pocket, beach bag or
purse.
Most of these cameras are pre-loaded with 400-speed film with 27
exposures, and include a shock resistant, heavy-duty housing
that floats. They are cheap (you can pick up a disposable
underwater camera for about $6.00 to $20.00) and even cheaper if
you buy them wholesale in quantity.
Not all underwater cameras come with a flash. To get really nice
underwater images, your best bet is an external strobe so you
won't create "backscatter" (which looks like snow or dirt in
your pictures). Also remember when taking your photos,
especially when snorkeling, to keep the sun behind you and to
take advantage of that beautiful blue clear water. With a
disposable underwater camera you really can take great pictures
anywhere and at anytime.
