Digital Camera Rental Questions |
| Camera equipment |
| What kind of cameras does Guestcameras use? |
| We offer 8.2 MP Kodak EasyShare cameras. Our cameras were selected after testing many different camera models for ease of use and the quality of the photographs. Our testing was done by real wedding guests in the actual situations the cameras would be used, at wedding receptions in various lighting conditions. For more information on the cameras we offer visit our digital camera rental page. |
| How do your cameras compare to disposable cameras? |
Our digital cameras have been tested alongside disposable cameras at real wedding receptions by the actual guests in attendance. Our digital cameras outperformed disposable cameras in both the quality of the photos and the number of photos taken. Another great benefit of our cameras is there ability to capture video and sound.
With our digital cameras guests are able to see the photos they take when they take them and in doing so enjoy using digital more than disposable.
With disposable cameras there is a limited amount of film so guests will often avoid using the cameras in fear of wasting film on something you will not want to print or will try to save film for taking photos latter. In comparison each of our digital cameras can take more photos than 10 disposable cameras. And since it is digital they take more photos knowing you will only need to print the ones you like.
Guests love knowing that all the photographs taken with our digital cameras will available to view and be theirs to keep at no cost by visiting our site and downloading their favorite photos after the event. With disposable cameras it is hard to share the photographs and provide copies to all your guests who want to view and print photos.

| Do the cameras take video too? |
| Yes our cameras record both video as well as audio. So have your DJ or Best Man make an announcement encourage your guests to record personal messages |
| Will my guests know how to operate the cameras? |
| The cameras we provide are easy for guest to use. To determine the ease of use of the cameras we provide for our rental service we needed a little help. Our backgrounds as professional wedding photographers made it impossible for us to determine if a camera was easy to use. We called upon the help of some our clients or I should say some of their guests to ensure we provided high quality as well as easy to use cameras for our camera rental service. Our cameras along with other camera models that did not make the cut were tested at various wedding receptions by actual wedding guests. The Kodak EASYSHARE series of cameras were easy for guests to operate and the image quality was outstanding. |
