Polaroid Originals Digital to Analog Starter Bundle

Polaroid Originals Instant Lab

Pluck your memories from the cloud and bring them into the real world with the Polaroid Lab. It features a 3-lens system that acts like a desktop darkroom to turn your digital photos into instant Polaroid pictures. No printing or scanning required, just 100% real film chemistry. Plus, create and communicate in more ways than one with collage and augmented reality functions. Make for you, or make for someone else. But never lose a moment again.

Bring Your Still Images to Life

Go where a Polaroid camera has never gone before with this Instant Lab. You can create collages of up to 9 frames or bring your stills to life with the augmented reality tool using the Polaroid Originals app.

How Does It Work?

The Polaroid Lab uses a 3-lens system to project the screen image from your phone, exposing it onto Polaroid film. A unique chemical process then develops the image into a Polaroid picture. No printing, no scanning required, just an instant formula to create timeless images.

Collages Made Easy

Using the Polaroid Originals app, you can create seamless collages of up to 9 frames composed in any which way you like.

Digital to Analog and Back

The new augmented reality tool brings your memories to life. Using the Polaroid Originals app, you can layer still images with motion, all built into the chemistry of the photo.

Polaroid Originals Color Instant Film for 600 Cameras (8 Exposures)

Color 600 film is the original format instant film for vintage Polaroid 600 cameras (though it works with i-Type cameras too). It captures your photos in a rich spectrum of color, texture and tone, and frames them in that iconic white border which makes every Polaroid a cultural icon. Every photo it creates is unique; unpredictable, imperfect, and impossible to reproduce. You get 8 instant photos in every pack.

Store Chilled

The fridge is your film’s best friend. Temperature affects how Polaroid film works. To keep your film in shape for shooting, we recommend storing it in the fridge (not the freezer) and allowing it to reach room temperature (13-28-degree-C / 55-82-degree-F) before loading it into your camera.

Shoot with the Light

Whether you’re using natural sunlight or a studio set-up, always shoot with the light behind you, or to your side. If you face the camera into the light, your photos can end up dark and blown out. We also recommend to always use the flash to get great results — even if it’s a sunny day.

Develop in the Dark

You need light to get the best photograph, but you need darkness to let it work its magic. When you take a photograph, thousands of chemical reactions take place within that small film frame. To get the best result, let your photograph develop face down in a warm area that’s shielded from light.

Compatibility

Compatible with vintage 600 cameras as well a newer models including One Step+, the Polaroid Now, and the Polaroid Lab.

Care for Your Camera

Clean rollers make for clearer photographs. Each Polaroid camera has a set of rollers inside the film door. If these rollers are dirty, the chemistry can’t spread as easily across the film frame. If they look dirty, give them a gentle wipe with a soft, damp cloth.

Polaroid B&W Film for i-Type Cameras

Got a camera? Need film. Polaroid i-Type cameras have their own film: it's battery-free (unlike the standard film for vintage cameras), so it's easier on the wallet. Compatible with the OneStep + and the Now cameras, plus the Polaroid Lab. There are 8 instant photos in every pack.
