Retro, Cute, and Fun January 9, 2010 LouLou (Los Angeles, CA) 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
I purchased this camera a few months ago, and I love it. It's fun and easy to use. It is well-designed to fit your hand, and the shape and color give a modern elegance and simplicity to an "old-fashioned" concept. However, it is not a substitute for a digital camera which I also own and use. This is a speciality camera for instant prints.
Read the specs carefully on this product, so that you know what you would be getting if you choose to buy one. The pictures are about the size of a credit card. The camera uses a specific film type of Fuji film that is available on various websites (and probably in stores, although I get mine online so I don't really know about that). It is a little noisy when it shoots a picture, but in my opinion, no more so than the bulky, old-fashioned ones that are no longer available.
I lamented when these types of cameras disappeared from the market, and I am so happy that I have one again. It's swell!
This is a great camera! January 11, 2010 Moonbot 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I got this camera for christmas and I love it. I take this camera everywhere and have had a lot of fun with it.
The colors are great and the few setting that it has for exposure have so far worked out great for me.
I would definitely recommend getting it.
Great February 21, 2010 M. Luu (Mission Viejo CA) this really is a great camera, the instant photo quality is pretty clear and the cost of the film is just about the same as polaroid was when they were making those. The camera is pretty big though but i think this can be expected of most instant type cameras.
great camera, expensive film January 19, 2010 peppermint patty (Charlotte, NC) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This little baby is dynamite. Very cool design. Lots of fun to use, and the pictures are quite nice. The format (size) of the pictures is very unique and become a conversation topic. Having grown up in the age of Polaroids, this is a nice comeback.
The downside is the the film is quite expensive (as instant film has always been), a little over $1 a shot.
As an aside, I posted comments in OCTOBER on this product and said that the film recommended was not the correct size and appeared to be as yet unavailable from Amazon. Where did that go? It could have saved many irritating and disappointing moments for customers, many of whom wrote in the recent weeks to complain about this exact issue!
Amazon screwed up December 28, 2009 R. Robinson (Northern New Jersey) 5 out of 7 found this review helpful
Like others, I purchased the film that was "recommended" by Amazon when I bought the camera -- and the film is the wrong format. The camera and the film came from two different vendors, so I don't know how that will get resolved. It is not the film vendor's fault that the wrong thing was recommended by Amazon.
The camera works as advertised, so I'm not gong to give it poor ratings because of a listing problem that was Amazon's fault.
