For those who regularly throw big events or parties, photobooths are a popular amenity, but rental costs can be sky high. Now for just $450 you can buy HP's new all-in-one Sprocket Photobooth, which can snap group shots, add effects, filters and themed borders and then instantly spit out a copy of the photo for guests to take with them.
If you're okay with a lot of DIY there are plenty of tutorials online that will walk you through the process of cobbling together a laptop, camera, software and even lights to create a makeshift photobooth. The one catch is that it might not be completely idiot-proof, and the last thing you want is to have to spend all your time at a party serving as tech support.
