Instant cameras (sometimes called Instax) are based on old Polaroid cameras and can print the picture right after you press the shutter. The photo then gets fully developed within a few minutes. Some models also store images on a memory card, just like normal digital compact cameras.

Key parameters when choosing an instant camera
Shutter speed
Shorter exposure time means that the final image is less affected by the movement of the object or camera itself. If you are not trying to capture dynamic sports shots, a shutter speed under 1/100 s is enough. If you do want to capture dynamic action, look for cameras with a shutter speed of 1/400 s or higher. Some instant cameras also let you get creative and set shutter speed to 1 minute and longer, which can produce some really unique and interesting shots.
Picture size
- Fujifilm Instax Mini series - Film size 86 x 54 mm, picture size 62 x 46 mm.
- Fujifilm Instax Wide series - Film size 86 × 108 mm, picture size 62 x 99 mm.

A Polaroid instant camera can even replace your regular digital compact camera. They have a display, store images on a MicroSD card, and can snap shots in resolution up to 13 Mpx. In addition, they can record HD video and use Bluetooth to connect to your smartphone or tablet.
