Not sure if I've seen a truly disposable Digital camera...
But Kodak did just announce a Disposable 35mm camera with a
Digital CD DISK being sent back with the prints...
See this press release:
Kodak Press Announcement
Anothe copy of release, WITH photo of camera
Press release seems to say they are offering a Disposable 35mm Camera, (called the "PLUS Digital 35mm Disposable")
INCLUDING print processing, AND
INCLUDING a CD with the Digital Images...
all for about $10-$12 for 27 exposures, with *Flash*.
RE-reading the release, and noting the words on the box...
"Includes Kodak Pix CD when you BUY prints"
leads me to question if you really get 27 PRINTS *and* the CD for the low price of $10-$12. Almost sounds like you get just the Camera and Film for the First $12; THEN get to spend some more to get the film Developed, Printed, and put on the CD.
This will require some additional reasearch...
UppyDate...
Called Kodak (1-800-242-2424)...
The camera & film price of $10-$12 does NOT include the processing required to develop & print the photos taken; but you're *supposed* to get the CD for *free* IF Kodak does the processing.
Oooh-Kay... Stopped in the local WalMart...
They never heard (and don't stock) this new "PLUS Digital Disposable"; but said WalMart would handle it like they do ALL Kodak One-Time-Use cameras...
they send them off to FUJI Film for processing! Guess Wally doesn't use Kodak.
Cost to Develop & Print is $4.00;
Cost for the pix CD Disk is $4.00 "extra".
So the TOTAL would be $10-$12 for the camera & film,
plus $8 for the prints & CD;
TOTAL of about $20.00 for 27 shots.
Somebody will have to check with a retailer who sends these disposable cameras to KODAK to see if the *free* CD Disk is really *Free* if Kodak does the processing.
