Polaroid Two - Digital Instant Camera
Polaroid are well known for their instant cameras, but have taken it one step further by producing the Polaroid Two. It combines a digital camera and their PoGo printer so you can have a print out of your images on the move.
I think it’s a great idea and am glad that the Polaroid Two is available. Nothing beats having a real picture in your hands. It seems that everything is done online these days so a device like this is a novelty. Saying that, it does come with a quite hefty price tag. At just under £230 it’s not the cheapest camera you can get. There are cameras on the market that have much more MegaPixels than the Polaroid Two which only packs 5 MegaPixels.
The prints that the Polaroid Two produces are 2″ by 3″ which is a good, handy pocket size. It’s a little on the small side for me to be honest. These pictures are printed on sticky paper for some reason too. From what I’ve read about the Polaroid Two it takes about 40 seconds to print an image out. That’s an excellent speed for getting instant pictures from the Polaroid Two.
There are some drawbacks to the camera though, and from reading the information that’s available about the Polaroid Two I discovered that you can only take 15 snaps per charge. That’s quite restrictive for this day and age really. If you want a camera that produces small pictures instantly and you have £230 to spare then the Polaroid Two is the camera for you. I would rather spend the £230 on a camera with better features, but that’s just me.
