Photobooths

A photo booth is a vending machine/kiosk that has an automated, coin operated camera and film processor inside the booth.The majority of modern day photo booths are now operated digitally, traditionally the booth has a seat inside that can fit up to two people. Once payment has being made by whomever may be using it a series of photographs will be taken by the booth. Before each photograph is taken there will be a signal given, sometimes this can be a light turning on or a buzzing sound.
Photo booths then print the photographs out in strips these then come out of the outside slot of the booth and can be taken away once printed. The printing of the photographs usually takes up to about a minute.

Both B&W and colour photo booths are still in use in the United States Of America although throughout Europe practically all B&W photo booths have been wiped out by the invention of Colour photo booths.
Photobooths have become a popular way to take photographs throughout the decade because of there ability to produce good quality images, fast.Over the decades it has become popular for couples on dates to go into photo booths to have their photograph taken together.
