Comment on The new Polaroid I-2 instant camera

Comments

I recently bought Instax by Fujitsu for $70. It’s great for parties! But also $1 per photo basically

In Australia 35mm cameras worked out to about this (for decent c41 developed at a decent print shop), even before smartphones / digis went mainstream.

the price per photo is what deters me from buying one. You will end up thinking twice (or thrice) before snapping an instant photo, because.. "is this really worth $1?". Having that said, I've seen you can buy these in bulk and the price goes down.

Fujifilm also sells Instax printers (https://instax.com/printer/) that you can print to using smartphone apps. Note that the printers use the same film cartridges as the Instax instant cameras.

thinking before shooting was the norm before digital. that's why we had great photohraphers.
