The fun of it is the most important part February 18, 2001 38 out of 40 found this review helpful
I definately love this camera. It's incredibly fun and gratifying to get your pictures developed a minute after you take them, and this camera in all honesty isn't meant to be professional. If you want professional quality go buy an slr or a digital. This kind of camera should be purely considered for enjoyment. Yes it is heavy but not in a way that makes it uncomfortable--it's bulk makes it nostalgic. It has very basic camera features and is one of, if not the, easiet camera i've ever used--just shove the film in and go. The camera takes decent quality pictures and tends to put a slight sepia tint on them when taken inside, but i consider that a cool trademark effect. The features of this camera include a lens that can be slid over to take closer pictures, a sliding numberless aperture setting, built in flash, and a button that lets you control the use of your flash. The only drawback is the fact that you can't take pictures closer than 2 feet (like all polaroid cameras). The lens of the camera also makes ojects closer to the camera larger in proportion to ojects farther from the cameraon the prints but it's not incredibly noticable. Overall, I enjoy it very much and would whole-eartedly recommend it for anyone.
Classic Item of Popularity, Unfailure & Excellence March 20, 2008 Ernest Debrew III (Williamsburg, VA USA) 6 out of 7 found this review helpful
Polaroid is a popular camera brand, especially its instant cameras. Unlike other cameras such as Kodak, Canon, and Vivitar, it is self-protected when you close the front top hood down. It is well prolonging and does not require any batteries at all. All you need is brand new or fresh Polaroid 600, 600 Plus, or 600 Platinum film which can be inserted into the base of the camera. Then, a green light appears/glows and you will be set to take awesome pictures. Another reason why this camera is popular is because you get the pictures instantly.
exactly what i purchased it for. September 22, 2009 Moreen (San Francisco, CA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
i purchased this camera because my first polaroid camera (the polaroid one600 ultra instant camera) broke. not so much the camera itself, the actual hinge that opened and closed the camera. it ended up overexposing my film, which is a total waste of film. (if you are thinking about purchasing one of those, consider an older model) i found this one for $20 and it was well worth it. i took a chance on a used polaroid camera and it ended up working out. the pictures surprisingly have definition, just don't take a picture of anything closer than 8-12 inches or it'll just be blurry. and the hinge to open this camera is manual, so i don't have to worry about overexposing my film. it is kind of heavy to carry around, but mine came with a strap so it wasn't so bad. the novelty of an older polaroid camera made it that more enjoyable. go get one!
Polaroid Camera January 6, 2009 L. Bell (San Diego, CA.) It is just an old simple polaroid camera.
The only problem now, is trying to find film for it.
Good Luck!!
Great, Old fashion November 22, 2009 Joshua Lopez (California, USA) I love photography and I am still a highschool student. I bought this camera a while ago for 2 dollars with film. Ive only taken 2 photos so far but i love it. I'm only using it for special moments since each pack of film is around 30-40 dollars.
