This is almost a staple for any wedding... now the unfortunate thing about the photos taken with disposible camera is that about 90% of the photographs do not turn out.
When you buy disposible cameras for your guests keep ISO in mind. 200 or 400 ISO is find for outdoors weddings; however, 800 is more recommendable for indoor weddings.
Here are a few tips you can tape to the cameras in big letters to your guests to read:
1. The sweet spot is between 3 and 10 feet indoors. Under 3 feet the photo will be out of focus, and beyond 10 feet, the flash will be useless and the photo will be too dark... unfortunately it will not get that million dollar shot of you dancing 75 feet away from your guests table.
2. Use the flash all the time inside otherwise the photo will not turn out.
Final tip...
When you bring the box cameras in to get them developed, simply get them to develop the film, and put them on a CD. You will save money (since the majority of the shots will probably still be not too hot), and the digital format will be handier for you to share with your friends.
