Polaroid Originals - 9010 - OneStep+ Instant i-Type Camera - Black

Product Information

Polaroid’s I-Type film produces fairly colourful photos, albeit with stark contrast. Still, with enough light the results are charming. Get a snap right and you’ll have a physical memento of those spontaneous moments – which is exactly why instant film has so much appeal.

The original OneStep, unveiled in 1977, was billed as “the world’s simplest camera” because all you had to do was press the shutter button… and the camera did the rest. There were no controls, not even an on/off switch and, while there was an adjustment for exposure, you didn’t necessarily have to use it. The print was automatically ejected via a motorized transport and was self-developing, a big advance on the previous peel-apart Polaroid materials. Batería de iones de litio recargable a través del puerto micro-USB de la cámara. La carga total se realiza en aproximadamente dos horas y ofrece hasta 60 días de autonomía The app also supports double exposures, and long exposures with a narrow f-stop for light painting. There's a Noise Trigger function, which is like a virtual Clapper for your camera—just make a loud noise to trigger the shutter. Finally, there's a full manual exposure mode, with control over shutter speed, aperture, and flash power. The aperture range isn’t known, nor the shutter speeds, but exposure control is programmed to some extent, including again balancing flash and daylight. According to Polaroid Originals, the shutter is a “custom design using [a] precision step motor”, but that’s as much as they’re giving away. Probably the most versatile instant camera out there right now. Picture quality might be mixed and film isn’t the cheapest, but the app makes the OneStep+ great fun to use and it looks the part as well. Polaroid OneStep+ – The RivalsIt was Polaroid that would initially champion instant film with the Land Camera Model 95 in 1948. It produced sepia-colored prints in about one minute; color film would take a further two decades to arrive. Polaroid eventually offered the widest range of instant cameras and film formats, to such a point where the brand name became synonymous with the medium. The fact it owned the patents to instant film helped ensure rivals like Kodak couldn't compete in the arena. The OneStep+ is every bit the homage to Polaroid’s ’70s-era original, with chunky styling that’s full of retro charm. Por tanto, a diferencia de las cámaras Polaroid vintage, la OneStep 2 no se sirve de una batería integrada en la carga de fotos sino que la lleva en su propio interior. Por esta razón no es posible usar la nueva película Polaroid i-Type, creada expresamente para este modelo y desprovista de batería, en cámaras antiguas. The least expensive path to Leica ownership, the Leica Sofort is a simple-to-use point-and-shoot instant camera with a classic look and that all-important red dot on the front to let everyone know you own one of the camera world’s most respected brands. Mini paper format prints are on the small side, though. Aside from the close-up capability, the OneStep+ delivers image quality that's on par with the more affordable OneStep 2. But the flexibility to lean in and snap tighter shots is a boon. The OneStep 2 supports focus to about two feet, but you can get closer with the OneStep+. You won't have to stretch your arms as far for selfies, and you can get in a little closer when making portraits.

The lens – made from optical-grade polycarbonate and coated to reduce flare – has a focal length of 106mm (roughly equivalent to 40mm) and again the focus is fixed, this time from around 60 centimetres to infinity. Cámara instantánea inspirada en la Polaroid OneStep de 1977. Disponible en blanco y en grafito. Esta versión Viewfinder (VF) mejora la OneStep 2 lanzada inicialmente por Polaroid Originals con el contundente saliente del ocular, diseñado para poder usar más cómodamente el visor directoAs far as shooting ‘modes’ go, there’s just a slider to make your photos either darker or lighter. Until, that is, you pair the camera to your smartphone over Bluetooth. Polaroid’s Originals app adds a remote trigger, timer shooting, light painting and double exposure modes, as well as manual shooting. Okay, so now it's time to answer the big question –which is the best instant camera brand, Polaroid or Instax?
