This is great! We have a one day visit coming up next month and were planning on not getting Memory Maker, just not worth the money for a day. But now it is much easier to justify.

Didn't they sell a similar product at the ticket windows last year? I recall people being able to buy a one day Memory Maker product when they bought a one day ticket. I specifically remember people commenting on how their MNSSHP tickets counted.

↩ replying to dreamfinderI believe so, I remember it being discussed on here actually.

↩ replying to dreamfinderYes, we got it last October when we had a single day at MK after our cruise. I believe it was $49 at that point, but still well worth it in my book if you have enough pics taken!!

What about Magic Band it will be the same with the others?:confused:

As it is $14.95 per download normally, you therefore need five or more to get the money's worth. This is probably easy in the Magic Kingdom but may be harder in other parks unless doing lots of meet and greets.

Does anyone know if the one day option only show up once you have photos in Photopass? I don't see a way to pre-purchase it.

↩ replying to dan8302Yes it appears once you have photos in My Disney Experience. No need to pre-purchase, as there is no discount for the one day.

Does this work if you park hop or is it limited to one park?

I have been unimpressed with 95% of the photos taken during our past four (recent) trips. We felt compelled to buy none of them. Quite frankly my iPhone 6 takes far better photos IMHO. Thankfully the PhotoPass photographers are always willing (and often times offer eagerly) to take some shots with a guest's phone.

↩ replying to Baloo62From a technical point of view, the cameras that Disney is using are hundreds of times better than any phone camera. (To get technical, even with the same number of megapixels, a larger sensor has larger, more accurate pixels. a phone might have 15 megapixels crammed onto a /14 inch square, where a regular DSLR camera would have the same number of pixels spread across a 2" square. The difference is significant) The photopass photographers might not be as skilled with their cameras as you are with your iPhone. However, I have found personally that the photopass photos are far superior in quality than my camera phone.
They were doing a 1 day PARTY ONLY memory maker product. It might have been the predecessor or test to this product. I believe you needed to have a hard ticket admission to qualify for it.

↩ replying to Baloo62We just got back and I have been playing with the photos before I download them all.. there are a lot of bad ones (blurry.. over/under exposed.. framing is off.. etc..) but we had a lot taken, so there are a bunch of really good ones.
I stand by it being a good value if it is a special trip (birthday.. first trip.. honeymoon.. etc..) but not an every time thing. I don't know how much value a single day product would be, especially at $50.

↩ replying to yedliWThe same people that will drop $100 for a single day ticket instead of buying a multi day one.
B
↩ replying to yedliWThat was our experience as well, but with a far greater percentage of photos. A camera is only as good as the photographer using it. Is there any screening process (i.e. examples of work) involved to be hired for this position? I'm thinking even the popcorn guy could take photos that aren't blurry. Just sayin'.

↩ replying to Baloo62I know a CP whose position is PhotoPass. Not sure if she has photography experience, but I know it's not her major. I'm pretty sure they just give a quick training. Since no guarantees are made, Disney really doesn't have to worry about quality.
With that said, we are mostly satisfied with the pics they've taken over the years. Sure they're not all great, but then neither are mine. We have a few of the kids on canvas that are phenomenal IMO. Still cheaper than a professional session or even a typical trip to your mall's Picture People. Love that it is now included with my new annual pass!
