Photokina 2016: Polaroid Snap Touch and Michael Kors Instax Cameras

Polaroid has introduced a new camera that bridges digital and analogue, with a camera that prints with Zink® Zero Ink® Printing Technology onto paper. The new Polaroid Snap Touch instant camera. The camera can also act as a wireless printer via an app for iOS or Android devices. No cable required. The paper is 2"x3" and is available separately, sold with the camera or sold as a subscription with the camera. The subscription model provides a monthly pack of paper of the size you choose, along with bonus packs every 3 months and super bonus pack every 12 months.

Michael Kors signature

Even more interesting is the Michael Kors Instax camera as fashion. This camera uses Fuji Instax film and features an exclusive gold metallic finish with the designer's signature on the back, also in gold. This limited edition camera is expected to sell for US$149 from October 2016 through the holiday season. Like the recent Leica Instax camera, this little machine also features a selfie mirror, but mounted on the lens. The Fuji press release is dry, bland, boring and corporate next to this opulant camera, so search* out one of the many other articles for more exciting details.
