jazzie For me it's because Polaroid is legendary. Fujifilm / Instax stepped into the breach when polaroid went bankrupt, which is to their credit because it was pretty much against the digitalisation trend. I don't like the look of the Instax cameras. So it's Polaroid that is the real shit even though every photo hurts the wallet ;-)
Ian Prince That’s a good question!
I actually have and use Mini, Square and Wide instax cameras. The Instax film definitely gives more consistent results and can be considerably cheaper.
That said there is something magical about Polaroids that « better » Instax shots don’t have in my eyes.
Maybe this « magic » is in how Polaroids are more suggestive than descriptive. And that invitation to reflect, to interpret, I find rather enchanting 😊
crybaby Could you tell me why did you choose Polaroid and not instax? 😁 I guess because Polaroids are so cute looking
