i-Type cameras
The i-Type is a new film format introduced by Polaroid B.V. It is Polaroid 600 film with the battery moved from the film pack and into the camera.[1] All of the following cameras include a flash.
- Impossible Camera (later Polaroid)
- Impossible I-1 (2016) – designed by Teenage Engineering; automatically selects between five fixed-focus lenses: macro, close-up, near, mid and far (82–109 mm); ring flash; tripod socket; additional features are available via a smartphone app (remote trigger, self timer, double exposure, noise trigger, light painting, color paint and manual control of aperture, shutter speed, flash strength and lens)[6][7][8]
- Polaroid I-2 (2023) – one 98 mm f/8 lens with lidar autofocus; shooting modes available from the camera itself include automatic, shutter priority, aperture priority, and fully manual. (Note: lens equivalent to 38mm equivalent angle of view and f/2.8 in 35 mm film or full frame digital format.)[9][10][11][12] Additional features are available using the Polaroid smartphone app. The I-2 shoots I-Type and 600 film and with a setting change it can shoot the SX-70 film.
- Polaroid I-3 (2025) – the latest version of the most advanced instant camera due for release late summer 2025. Like the current I-2 it contains one 98 mm f/8 lens with lidar autofocus; shooting modes available from the camera itself or from the Polaroid app include automatic, shutter priority, aperture priority, and fully manual. The camera will contain an advanced flash system to improve skin tones and shooting in low light situations.
- Polaroid OneStep
- Polaroid Originals OneStep 2 (2017) – one 106 mm f/14.6 fixed-focus standard lens[13][14][15] The Polaroid Originals OneStep 2 Viewfinder has an upgraded viewfinder.
- Polaroid Originals OneStep+ (2018), later just Polaroid OneStep+ – manually selectable between two f/12 fixed-focus lenses: standard (103 mm) and portrait (89 mm); tripod socket; additional features are available via a smartphone app (remote trigger, self timer, double exposure, noise trigger, light painting, color paint and manual mode (control of aperture, shutter speed (up to 30 s long exposure and bulb), flash strength and lens))[16][17] Discontinued with the release of the Now series in 2020.
- Polaroid Now
- Polaroid Now (2020) – automatically selects between two fixed-focus lenses: standard (102.35 mm) and portrait (95 mm); dedicated double exposure button[18][19]
- Polaroid Now+ (2021) – automatically selects between two f/11 fixed-focus lenses: standard (102.35 mm) and portrait (95 mm); filters; tripod socket; additional features are available via a smartphone app (e.g. double exposure, light painting, remote trigger, aperture priority/depth of field, tripod mode/long exposure; various manual controls)[23][24]
- Polaroid Flip
- Polaroid Flip (2025) – features a four-lens system, autofocus, built-in battery that utilizes a USB-C for recharging, improved flash and is compatible with both i-Type and 600 film. The Flip also features a sonar autofocus system, utilizing a technology that Polaroid first adopted in 1978 with the SX-70 camera. [27]
