Polaroid has announced a new instant camera. This is the Polaroid I-2. It is a camera for imperfectionists, as it is so nicely described. The camera does not produce a perfect photo, but one that makes the pleasures of analogue photography tangible.
The Polaroid I-2 has the look of a traditional Polaroid camera. It has a 98mm lens with a maximum aperture of f/8. As the photo format sits somewhere between medium and large format, the angle of view will correspond to approximately a 42mm focal length.

The camera now offers the option of manual control. The settings are visible in the viewfinder and on the small external AMOLED display. The focusing ring on the lens is used to operate all the settings. There is also a ring for setting exposure compensation.

The camera uses a LiDAR distance sensor for autofocus. There is a built-in flash that produces skin-friendly results, as well as an external flash connection. The camera has a tripod mount and a thread for 49mm filters.
The Polaroid I-2 accepts i-Type Polaroid film, 600 film and SX-70 film. An internal lithium-ion battery, which is charged via USB-C, is good for 15 films.
This new Polaroid I-2 has a recommended retail price of 699.99 euros.
