Canon IXUS 100 IS/Fujifilm Instant Mini 7S

by littlestarzz Mar 1, 2010 3:02PM PST

I'm considering between one of the above. I know one is a digital camera while the other is a polaroid camera. I would love good quality pics as well as instant photos.. i guess i just have to get both right? but due to the price I think i'm willing to sacrifice for one. Was thinking if it is wise to go for the canon & get its compact photo printer instead?

Polaroid or Digital

by snapshot2 Forum moderator Mar 1, 2010 11:22PM PST

A Polaroid is a specialty camera that lost favor because of the high cost per picture.

Polaroid today is not the same as Polaroid of yesterday.
Polaroid was sold to a company that specializes in finding over seas partners for American companies.
Polaroid is now just a marketing company.
Most of what they sell is made in China.

Which you buy depends upon how fast you need the prints and at what cost.

well after considering.. I think I will want to have both one for better pictures quality & the other for ease of getting the pictures.. but as for now I will get the Fujifilm Instant Mini 7S first as I just realise that I'm quite on my budget. thanks for the advise!
