Polariod Two camera and PIZZA-EATING TEENS!

It is ideal for "illustrating a travel journal" or creating your own "Warhol-esque art installation" apparently. It is also handy for dwarves who want to take photos of teenagers eating pizza.



There's a press release. We're always so glad there's a press release when we can't think of anything interesting to say. If only it were possible to resort to reading out press releases in real life conversations when you can't think of anything to say.
Get snap happy with the launch of the 'Polaroid Two' - instant photography fun for the 21st Century

The much loved iconic Polaroid instant camera, renowned for its fun and instant images at the push of a button, is back! Now with a 21st Century twist, the new Polaroid Two is a digital camera that incorporates revolutionary ZINK(tm) inkless printing technology.

Designed to be as fun and spontaneous as the original 'Polaroid One' instant camera, the Polaroid Two rejuvenates a much loved innovation, first introduced over 30 years ago and one that has a dedicated following the world over.

Creative types, amateurs and professionals alike will enjoy the variety of uses for the photographs and the instant pleasure they get when they snap away and share in the moment. Whether it's for a Warhol-esque art installation, illustrating a travel journal or simply enjoying a night out with friends - its uses are endless.

In an instant, select from among the digital photos on the camera, crop or edit them and in less than 60 seconds, print full colour, 2x3 inch prints! You can even choose whether to have the traditional Polaroid white border round the image, amongst others.

The Polaroid Two works by using ZINK(tm) ink-free printing technology which replaces ink cartridges or ribbons with ZINK(tm) Paper - each embedded with billions of special heat reactive dye crystals. Before printing, ZINK(tm) Paper appears white like regular photo paper, as the paper passes through the printer the heat activated crystals melt to release the colour. Once the pictures are printed, they are immediately dry to the touch, durable, smudge and water resistant.

For added fun the pictures are also sticky back so you can use them to personalise anything! Ideal for postcards, birthday cards or whatever else you can stick them to!

Polaroid EMEA Head of Products and Marketing Vladimir Malugin comments: "The launch of the Polaroid Two is hugely exciting and represents a massive step forward in combining digital innovation with instant gratification. It's fun, fast and with its ease of use and offer of instant images, we hope the Polaroid Two will re-ignite a love of instant photography for everyone."

Polaroid Two follows on from the successful launch of the Polaroid PoGo(tm) Instant Mobile Printer last year and builds on the 70 year Polaroid history of visual innovation which includes the commercial launch of the iconic instant film in 1948.

I'm holding out for the Polaroid Seven. By which time it's hopefully some kind of implant where you blink in a certain way at whatever you want photographed and you get a small 3D reproduction of the scene.

Not sure where this 3d model would be 'excreted' from with it being an implant. Probably best not photograph too many spiky things, just in case.

2x3in is bigger than a wallet-size print, and almost the same size as a 6x9cm contact print.

It's about 1/2-3/4" smaller in each direction than Polaroid Pack Film's image size.

In other words, it's a great size for such a thing.

2" x 3"?
That's no good for pictures of your cock, surely?
That's what most people used Polaroids for before digital cameras, wasn't it?
I never had a polaroid.
And Boots refused to process my films after a while.
