- Can others edit my Photos
- Photos NOT OK to edit
Guys I'm really grateful to you everybody for your replies and comments. I'm also learning things on instant cameras with you. I try to explain you what I need precisely. I'm designing a fair stand for an eyewear company and to make the stand interactive for visitors I would like people can wear the glasses and make a selfie of themselves with an instant camera so that they can hang up the photos on a wall. They will become the new models. For this idea I was looking for an instant camera with an high number of films per pack so that the stand staff hasn't to refill the camera so often with the new films.
What I'll say is that changing the film pack takes about 5 seconds. It's just open back, lift out the old cartridge, pop in the new one, and close the back.
Having said that, I could understand why you would be taking a lot of shots and not wanting to change packs so frequently. It's also expensive, remember. Especially if a customer doesn't like the first image and wants to take 5 more pictures.
Finally, it depends on how big you want the images to be.
In this case, I would suggest the digital versions - not the same as an emulsion print of real film, but it's still an image that is printed instantly. From what I can tell, the cameras still only take 10 sheets of paper at a time, and prints are small (2x3).
The Polaroid Snap is one example: https://www.amazon.com/Polaroid-Ins...igital+camera&qid=1556233756&s=gateway&sr=8-3
And this is the paper, which is also essentially a bit sticker - you can peel it off the paper backng and stick the image onto the wall. :https://www.amazon.com/Polaroid-Pre...01BMO5NCM/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8
Or, you could look at a small wireless printer that will allow you to take pictures with a cell phone, edit if needed, then print instantly. There is a Polaroid printer, the images are a bit larger, and you can choose which picture to print (unlike with the cameras) but again, it only takes 10 sheets of paper at a time (also sticker paper):
For example, the Polaroid Mint: https://www.amazon.com/Polaroid-Ins...igital+camera&qid=1556233756&s=gateway&sr=8-3
So basically, I think no matter what you get, you'll have to change the pack or add more paper after 10 shots. But the digital camera with a built-in printer, or a separate wireless printer used with a cell phone camera might be your cheapest option.
