Polaroid i-Type Film

The camera works with a new generation of Polaroid i-Type and 600 instant films. You have colour, black and white and a range of special editions to choose from. The new film features the distinct dreamy aesthetic that Polaroid is famous for. i-Type film is cheaper because it doesn’t include a battery.

Like the original cameras, the Now can’t connect to the internet or post to social media. It doesn’t have zoom or image stabilization. But there are 5,000 chemical reactions that take place every time the shutter clicks. These reactions create an original photo that is impossible to reproduce. An object you can hold in your hand, to put on your fridge or share with a friend. There’s still nothing quite like a Polaroid photograph.

The Polaroid Now analogue instant camera is available in several colours.
