This makes it even smaller than Instax Mini film, and the smallest instant film available right now.
#POLADROID CAMERA FULL#
The image area is almost square at 1.85” x 1.81”, and the full Polaroid measures at 2.6” x 2.1”. The Polaroid Go film keeps the classic Polaroid shape but at about a third of the size.
The Polaroid Go has its own film, which is mini in size as well, so the camera is not compatible with Polaroid SX-70, 600, or i-Type film. It really let’s you be more creative and makes the Polaroid Go into something more than a simple point and shoot. Not the most intuitive thing in the world, but even though it is a little messy, I am thrilled that Polaroid included a double exposure feature in this camera. Press the shutter to take the second exposure. To turn the flash off for the second exposure, press the flash button once and the orange light will turn off. The orange light next to the number 2 will have turned back on, saying the flash is on again. The film counter will change to the number 2, letting you know it’s ready for the second exposure. Press the shutter button to take your first exposure.
The film counter will change to the number 1. Then, double tap the flash button to put it into double exposure mode. You’ll see the orange light next to the film counter button turn off. With your camera on, press the flash button once to turn the flash off. This will take a few extra steps using that flash button. When in double exposure mode, the film counter shows a 1 for the first exposure and a 2 for the second exposure.Ī shooting experience you might run into is wanting to take a double exposure but also wanting the flash off for one or both exposures. Having everything controlled by the flash button is a lot! But after a little practice, it does start to become second nature. Once you take the second exposure, the film will eject. The film counter number will switch to a 2, so you know you can go ahead with the second exposure. The shutter will fire, but the film will not eject. Press the shutter button when you’re ready. This will change the film counter number to a 1, letting you know you’re about to take the first picture of your double exposure. You can also shoot double exposures with the Polaroid Go! As with the other features, this is controlled by the flash button.īefore you take the first shot of your double exposure, press the flash button twice. Shooting Double Exposures on the Polaroid Go Press the shutter button to start the 9 second self-timer countdown. The orange light indicates that it is in self-timer mode. Then, press the shutter button, the orange light on the front of the camera will start flashing, and you have nine seconds to get in position before the shot fires. This lets you know that the self-timer is ready to go. Hold the flash button for longer than two seconds, and an orange light will turn on under the flash bar on the front of the camera.
The self-timer is controlled by the flash button as well. And since it charges through micro USB, you can charge it from your car if you’re out shooting and get caught with low battery. It’s stated that the battery life should last for about 15 packs of film. The light next to the charging port will flash green while charging, and then turn off when it is fully charged. It charges by micro USB, and takes about two hours to fully charge. I had no problem throwing it in a bag without a case or letting it dangle from my wrist. It’s made of a durable, hard plastic that feels quite sturdy. It is fully point and shoot with no options to control your exposure, and with such a high minimum shutter speed and aperture, the brighter the shooting conditions the better.Īs for the build, the Polaroid Go has a clean and playful design that has the feel of a classic Polaroid but in a modern, miniature package. The lens is plastic and not particularly sharp but is decent for a plastic lens on an instant camera. The Polaroid Go has a fixed 34mm lens with a shutter speed of 1/300th to 1 second and an aperture of f12 to f52.
