Automatic everything!

by DGTurtle2 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Jan 29 '00
Pros: Automatic everything, easy to use, good picture quality
Cons: the sizing switch is too easy to move (accidentally), increased film processing fees
I purchased the Kodak Advantix 1600 Auto when my pictures from my 35mm disappointed me. I made a great choice!

The Advantix is so easy to use, it's idiot proof! This camera has automatic everything. You just drop the film in and close the...

by caliday , Jan 26 '00
Pros: Lightweight, easy to use, good features

This is a pretty good little camera! It is by Kodak and is an advantix camera. It is extremely lightweight and can take a beating with the best of them (I've dropped it several times). It has automatic focus and automatic flash. It also has the...

Makes you look like a PRO

by chidswife , Feb 05 '00
Pros: Economical,Simple to use incredible photos
Cons: You forget what picture format your camera is set at. Therefore you may incurr extra cost when developing film when you did'nt expect to.
Never, since back in the days of the good ol' 110 Instamatics (Remember them) has photography been made so easy. Kodak has done it all with one simple to use camera. It's point and shoot, that's it! My husband and I own several cameras, some priced well...

by Kallisti Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, May 31 '00
Pros: Cheap, quick, light, no frills, no BS
Cons: Cheap, quirky, silly wristband
I guess the Kodak Advantix I own is too cheap to be listed on Epinions, so I'll take the liberty of listing it here.

I have the Advantix F300.

Yes, my camera is missing and entire 1300 of something that comes with the 1600,...

by jsteve01 , Mar 24 '00
Pros: Inexpensive, various picture sizes, easy film loading/unloading
Cons: Red eye, flash problems
About a year ago I bought my wife the Kodak Advantix 1600 Auto camera. I paid around $60 for the camera. The features on this camera are very limited. It does feature that ever so easy drop-in film. I never was good at putting film in any camera. This...

Pros: Cheap, Takes Good Pictures, Easy To Use, Durable
Cons: Bad Viewfinder, Easy to Forget what picture setting it is on, High Development Costs
Last year I received a Kodak Advantix 1600 Auto camera from my parents. I mostly do photography of friends and various things that interest me, and for this purpose, my little Kodak fits the bill. It offers Panoramic, HD, and Classic views. It uses...

This camera was purchased for my wife to take on vacation. She really wanted an Advantix camera, so we bought the bottom of the line to check it out. I am very thankful I didn't spend more on an Advantix! The pictures do turn out very good, but no...

Pros: 3 sized photos, Quality

There is a bit of an advantage in having an Advanced Photo System camera like the Advantix 1600Auto from Kodak. There are some disadvantages as well. The picture identification sheet with a film holder is much nicer than loose negatives in a little...

Glove Box Camera

by Writerip , Aug 19 '00
Pros: small, handy to store, panoramic shots
Cons: expensive to develop
It seems whenever you wish you had a camera, it's sitting at home, collecting dust, when the photo-opportunity of a lifetime looms in front of your face. This little Advantix solved this problem for me. At roughly $55 it seemed inexpensive enough for me...
