Kodak T550 Advantix APS Camera

This camera is small and takes great pictures. Its modes and flip up flash system from kodak to reduce red eye successfully. However, I did find this camera very fragile. I must go against the above said "great for kids." Just from normal use and being put in a back-pack, it broke. All in all, good camera, but its low cost might be because you'll need more than one.

I have purchased three of these over the last two years, one for each of my kid's. they have lost many cameras over the years by leaving them behind on vacations, and school outings. This camera is so small it fits into their jacket, shirt, or pants pocket. It also has many features the larger cameras have and takes great pictures. I don't worry any more about them leaving their camera behind. They love taking their camera along with them because they just put it in their pocket.( Now my wife and I get to see some neet pictures of our kid's and their friends ).

This camera is the best you can get, for the money. It's so easy to store, the film loading is great, and the availability is wonderful. I love to take pictures, and this was a great gift for me. I have heard people say the developing is very expensive, but there are ways to get a discount. Join a club at a 1-hour photo shop, (if available) and you should have no problems. My only reason for buying another camera is the fact that this one has no zoom feature. I am always in a situation where a closer picture would be so much better than a reagular one. For all you people out there who are looking for a great advantix zoom camera, try the F600 or T700. They are great zoom cameras. But if you are looking for a convenient, lightweight camera that produces fabulous pictures, then I strongly recommend the T550. I might be buying another camera, but I will still use my T550 the most.

This camera is simple to use and easy to carry around--and that is why I would recommend it to anybody. First of all the drop in loading is fantastic. No longer do you need to worry about putting in your film wrong or exposing the film to light therefore ruining it. The film is easy to load. Also the film has symbols on it that let you know if the film is used or unused. This is wonderful because no longer will you find a roll of film and wonder if it is blank or filled with pictures waiting to be developed.

This camera is also so light and easy to use. You can easily carry this camera in a pants pocket or a purse. It is tiny. No longer will you hesitate to bring your camera along because it is to bulky. This camera you can take anywhere just in case something interesting pops up.

The camera is so easy to use. You get to choose from three picture sizes. All you have to do is click a button to change the size of the photo--when you do click this button automatically the view of the photo changes to let you see what the photo will look like. Also you can change photo sizes in the same roll of film. This means that you can have standard, group and panoramic photos all on the same roll of film. Also the autofocus is great for people who don't have time to fuss with focusing their pictures.

A few drawbacks are that the film is more expensive to develope and also sometimes you need to get really far away to take a picture in order to capture everything. Other then that this camera is really good and highly recommended.

It is a good a camera. Its light to carry around and very compact. And it also Focus' nicely. I recomend it to any person who likes photography.
