I really want a great pocket 35mm camera, but I really don’t want to pay a crazy amount for it. To begin my quest, I’ve purchased a bunch of cheapies off of eBay to see if I can find a diamond in the rough. First up to get the review treatment is the Nikon One […]
Read More...New: Polaroid OneStep+ Camera Review
Just in time for the holiday season, Polaroid Originals is back with a new camera! This time they’ve combined the chocolate of the affordable and accessible OneStep2 with the peanut butter of the bluetooth powered control of the I-1. While not replacing my SLR 680 anytime soon, the OneStep+ is a great camera for people […]
Read More...New: Polaroid Originals SX-70 Instant Film Review
SX-70 is 600’s cranky older brother, and it’s taken me quite a bit of trial and error to finally get a review together for Polaroid Originals’ version of this format. SX-70 requires a ton of light and uses cameras that not only lack built-in flash, but are also decades older and thus, more prone to […]
Read More...New: Nikon N90s Camera Review
I’m finally getting around to reviewing my backlog of Nikon film SLR cameras! First up is the trusty ol’ Nikon N90s. This 90s-era camera can be had for peanuts today, and works great with decades’ worth of lenses. I still prefer the excellent Nikon F100, but you can’t go wrong with this guy. Read the […]
Read More...New Review: Polaroid Originals OneStep 2
For the first time in decades, it’s a new Polaroid camera! Well, sort of. The Impossible Project, now Polaroid Originals, made their first attempt at a new Polaroid camera with the I-1 last year. It was an ambitious camera, but the simplified, streamlined, and significantly cheaper OneStep 2 is exactly the camera the company needed […]
Read More...New Review: Polaroid Originals 600 Film (Late 2017)
The Impossible Project is dead, long live Polaroid Originals. With a new brand, there’s also a big update across Impossible…er, Polaroid Originals’ product line. Polaroid Originals claims that there’s a whole new chemistry in their films, and sure enough, they look better than ever. The best part about the new films, however, has nothing to […]
Read More...New Review Alert: Canon G7X Mk II
What’s this? A digital camera review? It’s true! I’ve had Canon Powershots since digital cameras first became a consumer-level thing in the early 2000s. Even though smartphones have largely taken over their turf, high-end raw-capable pocket cameras with large sensors are still quite handy. I’ve had a Canon S110 the past few years that I’ve […]
Read More...New Review: Fuji Instax Mini 70
It’s not the high-end option, and it’s not the cheapest one either – it’s the Fuji Instax Mini 70! I had high hopes for this camera, but unfortunately it’s hobbled by some insane design choices. Check out the review for all the details!
Read More...New Review: Fuji Instax Mini 9
Fujifilm is keeping the Instax momentum up with the new Instax Mini 9. Does it improve upon the wildly successful Instax Mini 8? Just barely. It’s the same camera, so those of you who already have a Fuji Instax Mini camera don’t need to worry about adding it to your collection unless you’re obsessed with […]
Read More...New Review Alert: Polaroid 680
At long, long last, I’ve finally gotten my hands on the one glaring omission from my Polaroid camera lineup: the venerable Polaroid 680. The most advanced version of the original Edwin Land-designed folding Polaroid SLRs, the Polaroid 680 is an incredible camera. It’s a blast to use and worth every penny. Now, if only I […]
