Ten years ago, the idea of \u200b\u200bsimultaneous shooting and printing suddenly got a new life, albeit in the performance of completely different brands (\u00a0Fuji\u00a0,\u00a0Canon\u00a0,\u00a0Kodak etc.). This direction suddenly turned out to be in demand, and even showed steady growth against the background of a general decline in the photo market.\u00a0This is not to say that the new owners of the Polaroid brand do nothing to restore their former glory and profit from it, they just do not do it as actively as competitors.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

And a few days ago, a fresh instant camera was introduced –\u00a0Polaroid Now +<\/strong>\u00a0, with new, even greater creative options for users: five filters, aperture priority selection, a tripod mode with smartphone control, and more.<\/p>\n
