 Does what no digital camera can do March 28, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
It'll probably be a matter of time before a digital camera is created that can print its photos as a Polaroid does. But until then, the Polaroid is the only type of camera that can do this. When you see a Polaroid photo, there's no question it's an original. Which is great for insurance claims, etc. That's in addition to the fun factor. Also my teenage kids, with all of their digital gadgets, love the Polaroid for the instant photos. It's a shame that the cameras and film are being discontinued. There's still plenty of us all over the world who love Polaroids. (By the way, Rite-Aid has the One600 on sale at this time for $19.99)
 Great Camera - BUT SELLER'S PRICE IS RIDICULOUS!!! March 26, 2008

This is a great camera. I really like Polaroid Instants and I really like this particular model. HOWEVER, please go to ebay or some other retailer where you can purchase this for roughly $50 to $60 dollars. I'm not even sure what the justification for this type of price gouging could be. Yes, polaroid is phasing out the instant camera and it's film, so....if I buy this camera for $200 then what after the film runs out? It's not like the camera is going away forever and everyone will want one of their own. Not many people are going to keep their instant camera once they can't take pictures anymore. Maybe this seller has $500 film to go along with this bargain, hmmm?

Perfect Product. Even better was my experience with the seller. After having tried to purchase this item from someone else and having a horrible experience; this seller took excellent care of me. Would buy from them again without doubt
Price-gouging! January 31, 2008

This is a nice little camera -- in the process of being discontinued. BUT the price here is OUTRAGEOUS. You can probably find it at a nearby CVS or Duane Reade or Target for about $40.
Get it for a good price and it's tremendous fun, especially for kids. They get a real kick out of seeing the picture develop before their eyes -- just can't be beat by a digital camera.
The pictures are _not_ of the quality of a decent point-and-shoot digital camera, but how many digital cameras cost $40 and how many give pictures _instantly_? And the Polaroid pics have a quality of their own which is hard to find in the digital world.
As of mid-March, the word is that _no one_ is interested in licensing the Polaroid technology (though Polaroid has indicated that they are happy to license it out). So the downside is that film will disappear, but the upside is that these cameras will not see the popularity of, say, Diana cameras. That means they should become _less_ expensive. One way or another, do not pay the thieves at Toyzz $160. Check e-Bay or anywhere first.
