however, it is acceptable. the camera is good to use, but it is kind of old.
They can be blurry, or the person's head will end up really small and not in the place I wanted it to be in the picture. I got this camera as a hand me down. It works great for instant gratification, but it is hard to get a quality picture.
I believe there is a counter on the Joycam, but I prefer the traditional Polaroid size and shape. This is the most annoying aspect b/c you only get 10 photos per pack (and they're kind of spendy). There is little more frustrating than to press the button and have nothing happen. I have the silver version of this camera. Otherwise, I still think this is a quality, fun camera and there is nothing better than not having to drop off your film for development. I think Polaroid instant cameras are great, but there are a few niggling problems. (It uses the same 600 film so I assume they are the similiar (if not the same), just different colors). 1) Photos often lack sharpness and can look slightly out of focus, 2) For some reason an occasional photo will come out as if it has already been half-exposed, and 3) There is no counter to tell you how many pictures you have left.
You can almost take as many as pictures you want and would not be afraid of wasting your films. There was black & white film for this model, unfortunately, they are no longer manufactured.
That's a little disappointing, but I think this camera is still fun to have. So, only color films are available for its use.
This Polaroid One Step Express Instant Camera is not the latest model, but it is good & fun enough for people who want to "catch the moment"-- take and get pic in hands within 3 min. The size, shape, & texture of the instant film can give you something different & a little "nostagia" flavor.
:) Digital cameras & images are great.
As the instant film is more expensive, you may not take pic that "freely" but what's on the pic will be what you treasure and you would like to keep.
