Dreambooth vs dslrBooth (LumaBooth for Windows)
dslrBooth is one of the longest-established capture applications in the industry, now sold by Lumasoft as LumaBooth for Windows. It is very good at taking and printing the photo. The question for a self-service operator is what happens either side of that: taking the guest's money, and getting it into your account.

When to choose them
Choose dslrBooth if an attendant is always present to handle payment, or if you already run a payment system you are happy with and only need capture and printing. Its camera support is broader than ours — Sony and GoPro included — and if you shoot on those bodies, that decides it.
When to choose Dreambooth
Choose Dreambooth if the booth runs unattended and has to take the money itself. Guest payment, settlement, the guest gallery and per-booth revenue reporting are part of the product rather than something you assemble around it.
