Best Instant Cameras

The Instax Square SQ6 offers the user clear and crisp images, an easy-to-operate design, and plenty of modes and settings that give more freedom to snapshot.

First, we'd like to talk about picture quality. In short, it is great here. The camera has a wide-angle lens with a focal length of about 66mm. It retracts into the body when not in use and changes its length and focus depending on the chosen mode. At one side of the lens, you will notice a small selfie mirror. It helps you make better shots so that everyone can be in the frame. The flash and light sensor is located on the other side. The print camera has a range of shooting options that the majority of instant cameras lack. It includes a selfie, macro, landscape, and double-exposure modes (it allows you to make very bright pictures darker).

You will also notice 3 buttons on the backside of the camera: the mode, the timer, and the flash on/off buttons. The photo timer can be set for 10 seconds, thus giving you enough time to join a group selfie. There is a handy paper counter on the back. It tells you how much photo paper is left. The SQ6 also has a tripod mount for clear selfies.

Finally, we find an Instagram-inspired design pretty attractive as well as the quality of materials used in the production of this model. The camera is definitely made to last!

Instant photo cameras are trending again, so be sure to get one for the parties, travels, and whatnot. The Fujifilm Instax Mini 90 is stylishly designed, makes quality shots, and comes with nice and fun features you’ll love.

First things first, this camera has an amazing retro styled design that really sets it apart from the competitors. You and your friends will be impressed with its classy and timeless look.

Coming next is the double exposure mode. It allows you to produce two images on a single film sheet when you press the shutter twice. Capture the breathtaking panoramas and light streams like a pro, but (possibly) without being one. Yes, it’s not the hi-res camera level, but then, what can compare to the mood and feel of an instant photo? Let’s agree, holding a printed shot can be as much fun as posting digital pics on social media. (Some would say, even more fun than that.)

This camera can automatically detect the brightness and adjust the shutter speed and flash. Thanks to this, you get crisper photos with more natural colors. And if you’re fascinated with the small world, feel free to use the macro mode shot at a distance of 30-60 cm. What’s more, the boosted 0.37x viewfinder comes with a scope and parallax compensation.

Finally, if you need an extra static shot, this camera can be put on a stand. Take it with you on a trip to capture the beautiful landscapes or do group photos.

As evident, the Fujifilm Instax Mini 90 is a universal instant camera for the 90s kids or just about anyone who likes retro photography. It’s simple in use yet versatile with many shooting modes.

Looking at the Polaroid Snap, what stands out first is its user-friendly design. The camera is equipped with a 10mp 1/3.2" CMOS image sensor and a 3.4mm f/2.8 lens. It has a built-in flash for shooting in dim light and a slot for 32 Gb microSD cards to store your photos in case you'd like to make a bigger copy. Photo printing is very fast. The camera needs only 1 minute to develop an image.

Making group photos is the easiest thing in the world with the Polaroid Snap because it has a self-timer and a tripod mount on the bottom. Plus, you can add a retro look to your group images by switching to the retro mode. This model also shoots in color and black and white. Last but not least, the camera makes a beeping noise when the photo is taken. With its help, making a great shot is very easy.

Handy features don't end up here though. The lens cover is made magnetic, so you don't have to worry about it dangling around. The camera runs on a lithium-Ion battery that charges pretty quickly via any micro USB charger. Finally, we can't avoid mentioning a pocketable design of this model, making the Polaroid Snap very compact. It fits an average hand perfectly. Such a huge advantage for travelers, isn't it?

Everyone takes digital photos, but why not try it the fun and physical way? The Fujifilm Instax Mini 9 is your modern Polaroid with instant shots that go into the albums or scrapbooks. Let’s take a closer look at what makes this camera so great.

First off, it comes in bright and fun colors that your kid or teen will simply love. Pick one that they like best and make it a fantastic birthday gift. The classic body shape makes it even more fun to hold and use this cam.

Next on the list are the 3 color filters that come with the box. Make your shots original and stylish without all the filters on your smartphone.

Want to snap some instant selfies? Not a problem with the Instax Mini 9. The small selfie mirror placed on the front near the lens gives you accurate selfies on par with phone cameras. Don’t limit yourself in what you can – and cannot do; this nice little cam blends the modern and retro technology, being a fun and useful smart device.

Moving on to the automatic exposure measurement that makes your shots even better. The Instax Mini 9 flashes a LED light for the recommended setting so that you could adjust the dial by hand after that.

Another useful feature of this cam is the high key mode. With it, you’ll be able to take brighter shots with a beautiful soft look (which is just great for portraits). Note, however, that the flash in this cam is not perfect, so if you want the top notch pictures, make sure you have enough light in the room.

Finally, making the close-up (macro) photos is now easier than ever. The Instax Mini 9 comes with a special lens adapter that helps you focus on the objects at 35-50cm.

Overall, this smart instant camera by Fujifilm is great for parties, nature trips, and everyday life. Preserve the best moments on paper – and give the social media a big one up.

Whether you’re looking to shoot or print physical pictures, look no further than the Kodak instant camera. It’s stylish, takes quality photos, and lets you print from your phone gallery via Bluetooth.

Don’t print out everything you shoot. If you don’t like the pic, simply cancel it, which is something not every instant cam can do. The Kodak Mini Shot 3 can also be used as a printer for any smart device with Bluetooth. Want the pics from your phone printed on paper? Just connect it to the cam, and voila, they’re ready for an album or a scrapbook. (Make sure you have the album with the right photo slots, though.)

Where other printers cost a lot, the Kodak saves you money by being affordable. Besides, you get a printer and a cam, which you can play with endlessly.

You can check out your shots on a handy LCD screen and decide what stays or goes away. The cam doesn’t disappoint you with dim and blurry pictures, as the automatic flash makes each one bright and vibrant. What’s more, a handy app lets you customize the frames and filters. Thanks to the 4Pass tech, each printed pic is done in ribbon layers and also laminated, so no fingerprints or water damage. Print the photos border or borderless, just as you like.

Although this cam is somewhat heavier than the competitors, it’s still fun to use and easy to hold. Fit for beginners and the pros, it’s a nice memory maker or party gadget. In short, there is hardly any reason for not getting this device. Make it yours or give it out during the holiday season.
