In Paris I bought a new camera. Something different. A polaroid camera to be exact. How fun to play with!
It is a easy to use little thing, just point and shoot really. The camera also have a selfie-mirror on the front which makes it easy to take a portrait of yourself. The film is a bit expensive, about 10 photos cost around 12-13 Euro, 15-20 dollars and around 100-200 sek. But on the other hand you get something that not so many others have to give to your friend on the trip or just keep yourself in the wallet. The photos are the size of a creditcard.
You unpac the camera, unpac the film and put the film in the back, matching the yellow dot on the film to the yellow dot on the camera. You don´t need to do anything more than that and hit the power button on the back. You can shoot with or without flash and on the setting L (light), normal and D (Dark): I tried them all and like the light setting much since it gives a bit of a vintage look.
So, go and by yourself one and have some fun!

Oh my how fun it is to use! Out and about by the Eiffeltower.
Kul leksak!
Lätt att det är 🙂
Snabbt du svarade.
Det kanske jag gjorde. Satt kanske precis vid datorn? 🙂 Tar en paus mellan avsnitten av Elementary du vet..
Du är rolig i dina svar. 😛
Gör du själv?
Nu pratar vi om dig.
Okej. 🙂 Min fråga var, vad gör du själv en kväll som denna?
Ungefär samma sak som du fast med andra titel. Bones. Samt virkar lite söta hattar till speceriglas.
Hattar till speceriglas? Spännande..
Det blev succé som present. Jag har för mig att jag har lagt upp den på Insta…men nu gjorde en som var mycket snyggare än där de på bild.
OK. Kanske kan du länka om du ser bilden? Jag missar ju bilder emellanåt..
Det är inte så viktig egentligen.
Fascinating that Fuji have reintroduced what Kodak abandoned !! I used a Polaroid instant camera for all my continuity work in the ’70s and ’80s !! 😀
This one’s FAR better …
Aha you did? You saved any photos?
I did have one of two; but I have scans of a couple. 🙂
Interesting. Maybe you can show me? 🙂

oh my. that is cool. I think it is even better quality than my new one. 🙂
love you in front of La Tour Eiffel!!
Thanks 🙂
Åh, jag hade en polariodkamera när jag var yngre. Undra om det fortfarande går att köpa film till den.
Det kanske det gör. Om du hittar lite mer gamla återförsäljare.
I’m with M-R. I didn’t realize that Fuji ”reinvented” the Polaroid. It’s so much smaller and cuter than the original 🙂
Isn’t it? Love it:)
