Polaroid Now Instant Camera i-Type - Black - 9028

Great camera and really cool to have. Quite small and takes great pictures. Film is quite expensive but still worth having a polaroid

Took camera out for its first test drive and I was surprised by the results . I'm familiar with the photo style of Polaroid cameras and my camera didn't disappoint! People seem to be under the impression that instant camera photo quality should be as good as digital a camera or a phone camera , but it's a film camera and works differently. This camera isn't producing a digital image it's producing a film/ analogue image . People also forget light can be their friend , as taking a photo with the wrong lighting conditions can result in less than pleasing results -dynamic range etc is different on this type of camera . Use the light available correctly and you'll get good results as photography is all about light and composition. I love the vintage look of the photos , they're very artistic too. Plus follow the Polaroid guidelines and you won't go wrong IE storage of film , how temperature can change the look of the photo .

So easy to use and great fun, photos develop after a couple of minutes but seem to mature fully over a longer period. Nowhere near as good quality as phone photos but brilliant to have physical photo to hold and pass along.

The camera is easy to use, and easy to load the film. It’s quite bulky, so takes up a fair amount but of space in luggage. The pictures aren’t fantastic quality, they all come out pretty washed out regardless of t he light. However, given this is a Polaroid instant camera you shouldn’t expect crystal clear, HD pictures. The replacement film is also quite expensive - around £18 for 8 photos, so works out about £2 a photo!

Possibly the best thing I’ve ever bought on Amazon! I love this. (The Cartridges are a tad expensive but I think it’s worth it.) Generally it’s anywhere from £11-17 for a 8 card cartridge) so £2 or less for a photo. Personally I bulk buy cartridges as that usually saves between £15-20. (Do keep these refrigerated.) If your using this just for holiday pics you might want to get a different model as it’s quite large and takes up packing space. It’s about twice the size of an instax camera.

Bought this for my eldest as he fancied an instant camera. The camera is well built. It is charged from USB. The film packs are quite expensive. You have to hold the camera still and shoot in good light to get a decent photograph, yet with a steady hand you can get fairly good results. The print pops out of the front of the camera very quickly and take a few minutes to develop. It's probably not a camera he'll use regularly due to cost, but fun to use for special occasions.

The quality of photos is good, it fits nicely in a hand, the quality of material is good too, it doesn't break.

Took 12 pics then the battery ran out. Won’t charge again. Monumental waste of money. Was bought to record the first few days weeks & months of my infant child. Ended up using camera phones & printing at Boots.
