Review on Impossible Project Analog Instant Camera by Gary Knop

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Amazing value for money

I feel like I've spent so much on polaroid film and film cameras over the past 2+ years. I've tried buying an old OneStep, then a OneStep2, and then an old SX-70, but I can't stop. Either the batteries are empty too quickly, or the film is not well exposed. Luckily, my love for Polaroid will always prevail. I remember seeing the I-1 launch but didn't want to invest. This went on until the price dropped and it didn't look like a big financial gamble, try it now. I've taken it on several trips and was surprised at how long the battery lasts. Also, the way the camera's viewfinder is set doesn't crop my subject in the shots either. The app and all the modern bells and whistles are great for creating more artistic things. Polaroid Originals/Impossible Project/Polaroid are doing incredible things in this area. I hope they continue on their way to bring back this great instant platform. If anyone from Polaroid is listening, I'd love to see an interpretation of the modern SX-70 folding camera. Unfortunately, the OneStep and 1-I just aren't the right size for my travel gear, and I'd love to see a foldable Polaroid that I could take with my main camera gear.
