# DropSnaps vs Lense

> Lense is a digital disposable camera with a live photo wall: guests get up to 25 shots each unless you pay for unlimited, video is an add-on, and the price rises with your guest count. DropSnaps charges one price per event, with no shot limit on paid plans, video included on paid plans, and a written guest book next to the photos.
