Shake It Like a Polaroid P'cha






Even though it’s been almost a year since Polaroid shut down its film factories, Fuji is doing its best to revive these nostalgic pieces of photograph history, while resuscitating some of our childhood memories of these instantly-gratifying and often-hazy, character-laden images. With the Instax 200 Mini instant film cameras, Fuji has created a modernized version of the popular camera that essentially does the same thing as the original. By simply spitting out pics seconds after having been taken, they come to life with color + clarity that, like a crappy little campfire started by your little nephew at a family camp out, somehow still finds ways of inevitably transfixing us and draw us in. We recently caught one of our photographer friends sporting one of these cameras that first caught our eye, + at less than $100, it may just catch a bit of our wallets too. –Pjax
