I first wanted to buy a Polaroid camera to me. Then I found this "handbag printer" and am glad to have decided to do it !!! But you should know what you want to use it, I think. The colors come out in any case so as they appear on the camera or Orinal, but I think that just good !! I'm always excited and amused by the results. Some are even better than the orignal and especially "self". But if someone wants to have 1 Original really 1 on screen, then I would advise against. But it was not important to me. I wanted to fast small pictures to give spontaneous, remember hinkleben and fun without the demand for perfection. For me exactly the right decision because I still can -anders than the Sofortbildkamera- decide yet what image I print.
