Fujifilm QuickSnap Active review: a fun waterproof disposable camera that’s missing one key feature
This waterproof disposable is great for beach trips and pool parties, but underwater photography might prove a challenge.
The Fujifilm QuickSnap Active is a waterproof disposable camera from Fujifilm's popular QuickSnap series. It boasts 27 exposures and fixed settings, and is encased in a hard plastic shell that makes it completely waterproof down to depths of 10 meters. The camera is designed with larger controls for ease of use, both for adults and children, but it lacks a built-in flash and is less suitable for underwater photography due to the challenges of shooting in low light conditions.
Priced at $24.75, it is more expensive than other disposable cameras and more competitive with similar waterproofed models, like the Kodak Sport. The camera offers naturalistic colors with a slight warmth, and the grain is noticeable but may be desirable for many users. Despite its waterproofing, it is not ideal for dedicated underwater photography, as it relies solely on available light and cannot produce clear images in cloudy or dark conditions.
