Re: Table Camera Question...
can't decide between one or two. i think we're having between 10-12 people per table.... i'd be interested to hear what everyone is doing with this also....

Re: Table Camera Question...
I was originally planning on one per table... 27 exp per camera times 10-12 tables is almost 300 pictures...

Re: Table Camera Question...
I'm planning on developing mine at the CVS by my house - they were great when I was testing out different cameras, and they adjusted the brightness at no charge and the test pictures looked really amazing - even the ones taken in a dark room. I'm going to clip the coupons for the $1 off developing and just do them in little batches.

Re: Table Camera Question...
Oh I also wanted to add - I decided on Fuji color cameras - on sale at WalMart for $8.88 for two (they come packaged as a pair) not a bad price really.
I put them in white organza bags. I made the scavenger hunt list on ivory rose-print paper I got at Michaels (full size sheets) I folded it in half lenthwise and then wrapped it around the camera so that when you look at the bag you can see the rose print through it a little.. I'll try to get a picture of it later.

Re: Table Camera Question...
I put 1 on each table and I had 13 tables total. Only 4 were completely used up, 6-7 had about 8-9 pictures remaining on each roll and the rest only used 1 or no pictures. So, I brought them on my honeymoon to use them up.
Some of the pics are funny, some came out really nice and others I have no idea about!

Re: Table Camera Question...
Something to keep in mind about table cameras...
I got one 36 exposure camera for each table. It was kind of a waste because there were only maybe 15 pictures taken from each camera. I know that you don't have to pay for developing what you don't use, but I wish that I had gotten the 24 exposure ones instead of the 36...I would've saved a lot of money.

Re: Table Camera Question...
I'm doing 1 camera per table, 17 tables, seating 10 at each table. But will get half the cameras in B&W & half in color.
Eternityawaits - were those Walmart cameras wedding cameras, or regular ones? Thanks!

Re: Table Camera Question...
we did one per table...15 EXP...but if I had thought about b/w I would have added that as well...
I have to say that it cost us less than $170 for the cameras and developing and that was well worth it...just to have pictures to look at a few days after our wedding...

We are just doing one per table, we got 27 exposure cameras though, for the snap happy people.

Re: Table Camera Question...
We had one per table and IMO they were well worth the money. We got some great shots!

Re: Table Camera Question...
We did one per table and all cameras were fully used but one (half used) so we ended up with literally hundreds and hundreds of photos. We brought the cameras (not the best quality ones) to the 24 min. photo guy in Woodbury (near where DH works). He played with the negatives, bleached them a bit, and got much better quality prints than I expected for the photo quality. He also put white borders around all the phots so they really look cute! BTW...he didn't charge us extra for any of that!
