Polaroid Now Instant Camera i-Type - Yellow - 9031

Product Information

Instant cameras offer a uniquely satisfying and delightful photographic experience, turning moments into beautiful keepsakes you can treasure. It takes 10-15 minutes to develop and like the larger Polaroid film, you need to be really careful about shielding snaps from light while they develop. After just a few minutes of playing around with the camera, the children were able to take a photo and overlay clipart onto their pictures, change the colour filter and use the selfie camera. As with all instant cameras, the Now+ can be inconsistent when used outdoors where the flash is overpowered by ambient light; images don't have the same bite or saturation as those where the flash is the key light, but this again produces a uniquely analog image character that may be to your liking.

Designed to work with the latest Polaroid cameras, and not vintage models, i-Type film produces prints measuring 107 x 88mm with a 79mm square image.

It comes bundled with a controller, 3x batteries, ND filters, bag, charging hub, extra propellers and more! It’s a tad fiddly, but you get used to it after a while and it certainly adds to the retro experience.The timer button also serves as a double exposure control – just press it twice and you can capture two shots on the same frame for an artsy effect. As you embark on your photographic journey, remember that each image you capture is an adventure, a moment of your life encapsulated in a small frame. Unlike old cameras, many modern cameras offer new shooting options and advanced features that take photography to another level.

If your budget doesn’t quite stretch to the Lumix S5 II, then this two-lens bundle for the original S5 is well worth a gander. A stick-on grippy thumb pad is supplied to attach to the back of the handgrip which makes one-handed shots at jaunty angles much easier. To make it easier, we put some of the latest instant cameras to the test – read on for our top recommendations. Automatic exposure senses the amount of ambient light and chooses the best shutter speed and flash output, resulting in reliably good shots both indoors and outdoors. It's a very solid and well built camera, constructed of polycarbonate and ABS plastics, and obviously has the heft and chunkiness of old school instant cameras.On the rear of the camera is the power button, flash override and an LED indicator to show how many shots are remaining in your pack of film (both i-Type and 600 are accepted). Overall, the Lomo’Instant Automat Glass Gives the best results possible from Instax Mini film – the only shame is that the prints are so small.

The technique used since the first polaroid camera was produced and is still being used is the self-developing film which uses light to create images. While the battery compartment is a little stiff to open, it does feel secure, and built-in folding fingers on the camera makes it easy to swap between the two mounts. As you'd expect, the Polaroid Now+ is an evolution of the existing Polaroid Now– which already stands as one of the best instant cameras on the market.

On the back, you have the power button, flash button, and an LED counter to show how many shots you have left. It comes in three Instagram-friendly hues - Glacier Blue, Terracotta Orange, Chalk White - and sports a twist-out lens, which also acts as the power switch. A square selfie mirror next to the lens helps with framing while the autofocus also does a superb job. In the box you’ll find little stickers that kids can place on the casing too, but the MyFirst Camera is much more than a cute accessory.
