Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The T550 Advantix includes PQix (Picture Quality Information Exchange), a feature that records vital screen data on the film's magnetic strip. Your film processor then uses this information to optimize lighting and color for even more accurate and amazing prints. In place of all those loose negatives, you receive a numbered, easy-to-reference index print of all your shots. And the negatives stay in the film cartridge so there's no smudging or scratching.

The clever flash, which has an 18-foot range (5.5 meters) with 200 speed film, flips up to put extra distance between flash and lens to help eliminate red-eye problems. This innovative design also prevents the photographer from inadvertently covering the flash with a finger. The flash then flips down to turn off the camera and protect the lens, acting as the lens cover.

The T550 Advantix comes with several other features to enhance your picture-taking and the final prints. The real-image viewfinder shows the picture size and format chosen, allowing for easy composition. With the time/date/title stamp you can add messages to the back of your prints--in five different languages. This gift set includes the camera, a carrying pouch, batteries, two 25-exposure rolls of Advantix film, an organizer/memory keeper, and a coupon book valued at up to $100.

5.0 out of 5 stars Well worth it, November 27, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Kodak Advantix T550 Gift Box Camera (Electronics)

The Kodak Advantix T550 Gift Box is a terrific buy. The camera itself is lightweight and easy to use. The autofocus prevents problems when there are multiple subjects in the picture, and the Red-Eye Reduction truly works. The fact that you're also given a wealth of goodies including the Kodak Picture CD, film, batteries, strap, and lots of coupons make this a great deal. Why buy just the camera when for the same price you can get a bunch of free stuff that makes the camera more fun to use?

A real disappointment. The carrying pouch and the organizer/memory keeper were not included. I went with the gift boxed camera because this was all-inclusive. The camera is a great buy, but lets not advertise a camera "bundle" unless one can deliver. This consumer didn't receive what was decribed.
