k. so i didnt know where exactly to post this because polaroids arent exactly digital cameras.. anywhoos i know polaroid the company doesnt sell them anymore and fujifilm have their own versions but does anyone know what the pictures come out like? cause i really liked how the old pics came out .. like kind of faded and old .. ?? lol i heard the new films are clearer but i wasnt too sure..

i just received my mini instax - white today! smile.gif imma try it out tomorrow so i might be able to load pics up sometime during the week~ but i was wondering if anyone knew how long the film pack (of 10) lasts once i put it into the camera. is there a certain time i should use it all up by or can it sit there for a couple weeks? >< aha sorry for asking a question on ur thread sad.gif

Moved to mp3 and digital cameras, I know its not digital but its in the same relative theme.

I thought the faded look was mostly from old film? I guess the camera and lens could play a role in that.

@jenniful92 I don't think it really matters as long as the film itself doesn't expire.

Seems fun!

Anyone know how much it retails?

I have the instax in choco. I love it.

The pictures are much clearer than polaroids. It's pretty surprising, actually.



I bought mine in Korea-- but they're cheap in HK. In the states, you can either get it off ebay or go to urban outfitters. My friend liked mine so much she bought hers off amazon.

it varies between stores.
i think urban outfitters sells it for $150ish, but on ebay, you can get it as low as $126.
i really want one too!
but the films are so expensive. D:

Hi there. I was wondering if how much is the difference between the price of the Instax in Korea and HK? (just an estimate please)

Thank you very much.

I've recently got this camera, and I'm loving it! It takes amazing shots. Something about film just excites me so much.

i just got the camera last month. my friend bought it from japan. i love it. the quality of the picture is great. love it! its much much better than the original polaroid.

i love how every picture turns out a bit differently. sometimes its kinda fade, sometimes its clear. i guess its based on the lighting.

It really depends on your aperture settings. I'm pretty sure hers is the Instax Mini, judging from the size of the photo.

Actually a lot of people are hoping for Fujifilm to buy the rights to the polaroid. SAVE POLAROID. I don't know what I'd do without the classic polaroid.

The instax is nice and compact...you can selca and they are adding some new stuff, but the whole amazingness of polaroid is the fact that's it's simple. It'll always stay simple and that's what makes it irreplaceable.

do you happen to know how much it'll cost if I buy them from HK? Like a rough estimate of how much in USD

well according to here, mini 7s is the standard model
and mini 55i is the best
but i like the chocolate colour of 7s so much!
cant decide which to get..
i'm most probably going to get it in japan when i go there in 2 months time..
