Pier290 Posted June 22, 2019 #1 Share Posted June 22, 2019 Anyone purchase the $200 digital photo package? If so....it is worth it? Approximately how many photos do they actually take?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awhfy Posted June 22, 2019 #2 Share Posted June 22, 2019 We normally get the package. Your number of pictures will depend on the number of times you stop to get your photo taken. We’ve always been pleased with the number & variety of poses. Some photographers are better than others, you figure out quickly who the really good ones are 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruisin' With The Fam! Posted June 22, 2019 #3 Share Posted June 22, 2019 We are wondering the same thing. What happens with the printed photos though since the package says "digital". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare groryjm Posted June 22, 2019 #4 Share Posted June 22, 2019 what we have always had is titled "All Inclusive Digital Online Plus Prints Photo Package" and covers both prints and digital. I suspect this is one and the same as for our upcoming 14 day cruise to Iceland this package is listed for £158 . With a 20 year old DD this is absolutely worth it and we often come home with two or three hundred prints 😎 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OT-Miami Posted June 22, 2019 #5 Share Posted June 22, 2019 I purchased the $200 digital photos package on Equinox last October. We took photos at every gangway and every evening with multiple backgrounds. We took home well over 100 prints and received a link to download a digital copy of all photos. Considering the per-print cost, we found the package to be an excellent value. HTH 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FunInTheSun9 Posted June 22, 2019 #6 Share Posted June 22, 2019 We purchased the unlimited digital + print photo package for our Transatlantic sailing on the Reflection last year. The photo package was a first for us, and it freed me from having to do the sole photography work during the sailing. There were three of us in our cabin, and practically every time we saw a photographer, we took a photo. Going to dinner, take a photo (or several) along the way. Leaving the ship, take a photo. Up early on deck to see the ship coming into port, say "Hi" to the photographer likely there too and take a photo. Photo, Photo, Photo. We knew them all by name after a few days! The system has facial recognition, so when any one of us in our cabin was in a photo, that photo was added automatically to the digital portion of our package. You should go to the Photo Gallery daily to see your current digital prints at the kiosk, and then also pick your latest printed prints off of the print wall; upon handing them to a Rep they will store them in a folder for you for pick up before the end of your cruise. In all, the Celebrity photo staff took a total of 297 photos of us, and we walked off the ship with the prints nearly needing another suitcase to carry them all home. We also received a link to download every one of them in digital format after the cruise. If you do the math, that comes out to less than $1 per 8x10 photo – Best deal ever, especially considering that a single 8x10 runs $25 on board. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Algebralovr Posted June 22, 2019 #7 Share Posted June 22, 2019 Is this the new package with no Prints? I believe they are ending the prints as they toss so many of them, and many people are quite happy with digital. We have gotten the package many many times when sailing with family. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then it was down loaded it onto our thumb drive that we purchased from them. Edited June 22, 2019 by c-boy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare hcat Posted June 22, 2019 #11 Share Posted June 22, 2019 We loved the digital photos on EDGE. Great photo opps, We hoped to buy a photobook package but it turns out it was a pre designed book where you plug in your photos to fit their slots ..there wasnt an option to self design which was not what we wanted. We ended up buying a lesser digital package but they threw in sev blank albums and photo holders with large prints of the ship.. The prints actually failed to download on our Android tablet , but the Apple rep on board EDGE worked very hard to make it work.. he was amazing! Suggest anyone who buys a digital package make sure the downloads work BEFORE you leave the ship! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fixit2010 Posted June 22, 2019 #12 Share Posted June 22, 2019 Last cruise they took loads of pictures and we bough the dozen or so we wanted. They supplied them on a memory stick, no printed copies.... however... All the pictures were on the memory stick but they encrypted the onse that we hadn't paid for. So if anyone is good at decryption or knows the right tools, they could get all the pictures they want but just by paying for a few. ****Disclaimier**** I am merely pointing out the technology being used and a hypothetical scenario. In no way am I suggesting anyone does anything dodgy or that they are not supposed to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
