Tips for buying a Polaroid camera this Black Friday

Polaroid produces a range of instant print cameras to suit different needs and budgets. Picking the right one can be tricky, especially as many of its older models remain available from retailers at competitive prices. To help you decide which Polaroid Black Friday deal will be best for you, here’s a run-down of the top Polaroid cameras you can buy in 2022.

The best all-round Polaroid camera you can buy right now is the Polaroid Now+. It combines the neat form factor and convenient autofocus lens of the Polaroid Now with the Bluetooth connectivity of the OneStep+. That means you can pair it with your smartphone for more advanced manual control and creative options, including double exposure, aperture priority and a tripod mode for steady self-portraits. It produces full-size prints with impressive picture quality.

If you’re looking for something more that’s properly portable, the Polaroid Go is a pocketable instant print camera with truly cute proportions. It scales down the dimensions of its bigger Now siblings, while keeping those natty retro cues. Designed for point-and-shoot simplicity, there’s no autofocus or macro mode, but it can still capture sharp party snaps. Prints come out the size of credit cards – perfect for sharing with your friends (although costly film means you should choose your mates carefully).

Fancy the form factor of the Polaroid Now+ but don’t need its Bluetooth connectivity? The original Polaroid Now is still available from many outlets, offering the same iconic design elements and useful autofocus lens. Alternatively, you can look a little further back in Polaroid’s line-up to the OneStep+. It flips the recipe of the Polaroid Now: there’s no autofocus, but you do get Bluetooth connectivity for manual smartphone control, plus that chunky throwback shell.

Looking for an instant camera with a twist? Polaroid regularly produces special editions of its retro cameras. These don’t offer additional functionality, but certainly stand out. Take the two unique versions of the Polaroid Now which remain widely available: Polaroid’s doodled homage to Keith Haring will be a hit with design lovers, while the Mandalorian edition is one for Star Wars fans.
