Advantages: Easy and fun to use

Disadvantages: Film has been discontinued, Film can be expensive

Instant Polaroid cameras are great fun! I used one at my wedding, where my guests took photos of themselves and then put the photo into a guestbook. Then they wrote what they wanted next to their picture. All our guests commented on what a great idea it was and how much fun they had. It's also a wonderful memento of the day. You can get the specialised guest books from http://www.instantforever.com/

I think they are great to use at special occasions. They are easy to load and this version has a feature where you can zoom in and out. The films come in packs of 10, so you do have to be quite picky with the photos you are going to take. The films can also be pretty expensive, especially now as Polaroid has stopped making them. You can still buy them; ebay is a good bet, and the cost around £10 a pack. I bought a 2x 10 pack from Asda for £16 about a year ago, I'm not sure if they still do them. I was lucky enough to get my camera from Free Cycle.

You rarely see them these days, but people love using them. I still have mine and don't want to part from it, even though I don't use it regularly. It's a shame Polaroid have stopped producing them as I think they're a timeless classic.

Summary: Brilliant fun!
