Review on πŸ“Έ Polaroid I-Type Color Film - Note Edition (4968) by Philip Davenport

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good Quality Retro Style Color Film

With the introduction of the new retro style Polaroid cameras it's nice to see that film is also readily available. This particular film only works with some cameras, so make sure your camera is compatible with this film. However, the film works very well - at least as expected. It's probably an increase in sharpness over the original look, which just means it's not as washed out and the colors are more true. The camera responds well to film and outputs it smoothly, taking around 10-15 minutes to fully develop. I think the cost of the film is a bit high. Maybe it's just a cost factor at a time when real photographic film isn't common, as all people are digital. That's how photos lose value when they're just taken and clicked thirty times without thinking. However, if you do, you really need to think about your shot, plan it, and take extra precautions. Well I can't disagree with the price, but it's more about special occasions to buy a film that willy-nilly fits any time. So it's really a decision you make if you want to get it. I recommend buying a Polaroid over alternative versions as it works better that way.

Pros
  • Slim Design
Cons
