Polaroid camera

[ChrisD.]

My mrs is after a Polaroid camera. She loves ‘analogue’, writing lists on paper for shopping vs using an app as an example.

Primary use is to take photos of our baby. Budget up to £200 but guess I can go a little more if required for the right camera.

Honestly the fuji Instax cameras are pretty much the standard now and the Mrs loves hers.
Mine is very similar to yours in that she much prefers the 'old' ways rather than more modern solutions.

Another vote for Fuji Instax, got my partner one as a present and she loves it.

Exactly what I was after, thanks. Any particular model etc to go for?

My son has a Polaroid Now (standard size) and a Polaroid Go (smaller). They’re pretty good and the photos have that traditional ‘lomo’ look and feel. Image quality is crap but it is true to the original model.

The wife has a Fuji Instax which she never uses but it’s pretty much the same thing and results. The major difference is the preferred shape and size of the camera. The Polaroid is the same format as the old one. The Instax is more mobile phone-like if that makes sense.

I got my partner a Instax SQ20 but I believe there are now newer models available, I believe the Fuji Instax cameras have 2 sizes of film, I opted for the larger.
