Polaroid launches a small instant camera known as Go

It is indeed an era when phone cameras as becoming better every year. But still the analog instant-film cameras have managed to maintain their charm and continue to remain a favourite of the people who like to take clicks while on the go. Polaroid has geared up to take that experience a notch higher and has launched its new ultra compact camera known as the Polaroid Go.

Even the price is unbeatable at just $100. The Go is just 4.1 inches long, 3.3 inches wide and 2.4 inches long. Going by the size it indeed makes the smallest instant camera in the world. When compared with the full-size Polaroid Now camera it measures 3.7 by 4.4 by 5.9 inches and the closest to this device is the Fujifilm Instax Square SQ1 that has a measurement of 5.1 by 4.7 by 2.3.

Talking about the usage of the instant cameras, users were discouraged to take them to events or trips due to its size and that could not have been done more often with the older versions. But the new Go is so compact that it can slip in to any back pack. However, a small device means a smaller film as the device has i-Type color film and has a picture size of 1.8 inches square or 2.6 by 2.1 if it is included with its iconic frame. Meanwhile, the Instax Square camera film has a larger frame and results in a 2.4 inch square picture and it delivers 10 shots per film pack while the Go cameras has just 8 prints per pack.

A tiny Polaroid camera for the instant picture lovers is indeed a treat. More features of the device include a long lasting battery life along with a dynamic flash like the larger Now with double exposure and self-timer options. The company has also included a selfie mirror for the camera and will also come with travel accessories.
