At the traditional technology and electronic event CES 2017 in Las Vegas, the new Polaroid Pop camera, which combines the retro Polaroid mechanism with the most modern technology, received special attention. It can be connected wirelessly to a mobile device and transforms from an ordinary camera into an instant photo printer.
Gone are the days when we took photos with a Polaroid, a camera that instantly printed our photo. Although its days seem to have passed, Polaroid is making a comeback. At the consumer electronics and household appliances fair IFA in Berlin, it was recently presented as a digital camera with a built-in photo printer that prints a photo instantly, but does not use ink! It sounds like the name Polaroid Snap.
Who would have thought that modern technology and trends would resurrect such a dinosaur. Instagram brought the square photo format back to the people. Previously, of course, Polaroid took care of this, except that the photographer could hold the photo in his hand at a moment's notice. At Fujifilm, however, they built a bridge between the two worlds.
Fujifilm has introduced the second appearance of a digital camera with a built-in "photo printer", the Instax SQUARE SQ20.
The Fujifilm Instax Square SQ10 camera is the first hybrid Polaroid. It smells like new and old. He brings back the famous square-shaped photos popularized by Polaroid into our lives, and in addition to instant photos, he also creates digital ones.
Remember Polaroid cameras? The ones that immediately serve you a photo? You probably remember them, because in recent years hipsters have taken care of it, if nothing else. However, it is a mode of photography that reached its peak of popularity at a different time. Analog time. But what happens if we take something from history, something from the present and mix it well? Often many interesting things. This time there was a Polaroid camera that prints GIFs instead of photos.
You may remember vintage bellows cameras from archival photos, museums and antique shops. If you want to get a sense of how photography used to be, you don't just have to go through the archives and ask your great-grandfather, but you can imagine a reincarnation made of recycled cardboard. Jollylook is a Polaroid camera that easily blends in with the classic "old-timers".
After Fuji Instax took the world by storm a few years ago, this year Polaroid is back in a big way. In addition to connecting to the Polaroid Originals app via Bluetooth® wireless technology, the new Polaroid Now+ is equipped with a number of improvements adapted to the times in which we live. The famous classic design combined with modern achievements awakens nostalgia and the desire to capture and mark certain moments as more special than others.
Polaroid cameras serve their purpose well, but they are impractical and heavy, and at the same time, they are not capable of producing the same quality photos as smartphones. For those of you who still don't intend to part with them entirely, there's KiiPix.
In the world of modern technology, which is developing and advancing day by day, it's nice sometimes to take a step back and remember how it was years ago, when there were no smartphones, drones and Bluetooth headsets. It is even better to combine both eras and enjoy their fruits. This is also the case with Kodak's new camera.
Anyone who thought that the concept of the Polaroid had survived was seriously mistaken. They experience the second spring like digital cameras. The latest to venture into the world of Polaroids is the famous Leica, which introduced the Leica Sofort camera with the option of instant photo printing. It is a high-end camera, dressed in a plastic body in orange, white or mint color.
