Polaroid Digital Print Camera

[Color] absolutely loving the polaroid lab for all my digital photography.

[FUJIFILM G] I've been using this lens for the last 6 months on a GFX 50R, and it went with me on a 2 week trip to Japan... To contextualize my review, my other camera is a X100F, which I will gladly shoot at f/2 and ISO 12,800 because I know it will make a sharp looking A3+ print, despite the internet bemoaning how the lens is soft and APS-C is bad at higher sensitivities. If you print your work, you'll realize how much you've been over-analyzing your digital images while trying to financially quantify whether your camera equipment is overpriced... ahem... This lens is sharp from f/3.5 to f/16, auto-focuses fairly quickly, and is a great match for the GFX 50R as a portable kit. I have images that I can't wait to print at 30 x 40 inches, while others will certainly be cropped into panoramas or squares because I have the resolution to spare. All of my smaller test prints look flawless... If you really go nuts with pushing your raw files and you magnify your images on your monitor too much, you will notice there's some chromatic aberration and distortion being corrected in the lens profile, but this isn't unusual or much of a bother -- I've seen worse on Hasselblad and Pentax digital medium format lenses that cost more, and this issue doesn't show up in print unless you go really big or do a lot of tight cropping. If I were allowed one complaint, I just wish this lens had a closer minimum focusing distance... Needless to say, I love this lens. Getting into medium format generally brings along more expensive, well, everything, so given this is priced at the lower end of the financial spectrum, I really can't recommend it enough.

[106mm] So what makes buying this camera worth it over finding an old polaroid camera at the thrift shop? Well the coolest feature in my opinion is the rechargeable battery in the camera. Usually with instant film you are only left with the battery that's in the film pack but with this camera you can use either the i-type film (no battery pack, relies on camera's rechargeable battery) or you can use the polaroid 600 film (the same film but with battery pack in with the film cartridge). Why is this a cool feature? Well you can now stock up on Polaroid film for yourself or a a gift and not have to worry about the battery in the film pack dying rendering the film useless. You have the ability to recharge the camera and keep shooting! And if the battery inside the Polaroid Originals One Step 2 ever does die or lose performance you can just switch to using the Polaroid 600 film with the battery pack in the film cartridge. This camera is totally worth buying! And I forgot to mention the Polaroid Originals film is pretty good and is only getting better!

[28mm] I love this camera because you can take it everywhere and take beautiful pictures, you choose which picture to print, it's the best because it serves as a digital camera and at the same time as a polaroid photo printer, you don't waste any printing paper. You can play with many filters, the aesthetics of the camera is too beautiful. I will always be happy with my purchase!

[Loop] The main thing I use this for is my keys! But it’s great when I switch it to my Polaroid, or my digital! But it’s always attached to my keys other wise and I just love it’s durability and can switch to any size you want.

[2 Ribbon] I use them with my digital polaroid They are small, compact, and good quality I would love them to have a white frame but they don't

[INSTAX Mini] This little gizmo has drastically improved my client relations. It's so fun to be able to print a polaroid right in front of their eyes after an engagement session.

[Print] [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am so unbelievably happy with this printer! I no longer have to carry around my bulky Polaroid camera with me. This printer makes it possible for me to just take the pictures with my phone, come home and print them out and still get that Polaroid feel to them. The instructions are very easy to follow and the app is easy to navigate. The image takes less than two minutes to print and the quality is fantastic.

[2 Ribbon] There isn't much that needs to be said about zink paper. The only thing that I would like to see with future polaroid products would be the ability to have more accurate colors. The paper does not seem to want to print out black, if you print a black and white picture on this paper it will come out purplish. when printed out in color it is much less of an issue.

[0.2 lb] I love my polaroid camera, and this film works great!
