Should you really "shake it like a Polaroid picture?"
Ever since the song "Hey Ya" by Andre 3000 of Outkast came out, everyone is shaking their Polaroid pictures. Shaking or waving a Polaroid picture to help the development process originated in the early days of peel-apart film. After peeling the negative, the image needed to dry before it could be handled, so waving the photo helped it to dry more quickly. When using the integral films (600, Spectra, 500, SX-70/Time-Zero, i-Zone) that are used in our most popular current camera models (Polaroid One, OneStep, JoyCam, etc.), the image develops and dries behind a clear plastic window and never touches the air, so shaking or waving has no effect. In fact, excessive shaking or waving can actually damage the image. Rapid movement during development can cause portions of the film to separate prematurely, or can cause "blobs" in the picture. The best way to ensure a perfectly developed image is to simply lay the picture on a flat surface immediately after it exits the camera.

I took this camera with me on a medical mission trip to Honduras. We went to a remote village where the people are poor and have little access to modern amenities. I took several pictures of senior citizens and children and gave them to the families. They loved it! Probably most of them never have family pictures like we all take for granted. It was easy to use!

While some stock still remains of the Polaroid film, they stopped making it several months ago. There is perhaps a year supply left on the market, after that it's GONE FOREVER. I have one of these cameras purchased last year. The price was $30. $299 is TOTAL RIP-OFF even if film was still being made. Do yourself a favor and get a Fuji Instax 200 or Instax Mini. Better quality (Made in Japan) MUCH better price ($45) and you won't have to worry about getting the film in the future.

The camera was brand new and the packaging was in relatively good shape. And they even sent it in a very speedily manner. The only problem is they sent me the wrong color camera. But oh well. As long as it still takes the same pictures then there's no reason for me to fuss about it.

I don't think Polaroid is even making these or the film anymore. I got it for my mother as gift. She loves the simplicity of polaroid and this replaced her old polaroid.

Instead of a sign in book at my wedding I did instant pictures. This camera worked great. My wedding was two years ago and the cameras are still working great. I am very pleased with this product.
