here is not new technology...the old polaroid cameras used the same technology...just read a bit more in google and youll see what i say is true... the pogo is kinda better just because it has a inprovement in picture quality, has bluetooth and usb conection...
HEY POLAROID, HOW BOUT YOU DONT GIVE INSTRUCTIONS IN PICTURES, EH? Goshdarn. IM SO FRUSTRATED. and no, i dont go to your support page to buy a holder for said printer THAT ISNT FREAKING WORKING. SDGHDGJHGJSFGJS.
I just got one of these-on sale, dirt cheap. The first picture that came out looked great-small, but great. Then the next picture got streaks in it-bad. The instructions said to take one of the sheets and turn it upside down, close the lid and it will feed through. This should fix it. It didn't. The pictures got worse. Then the battery died, it lasted for about five pictures. Wireless printing worked perfect. Is what I got defective?
It's a little disappointing that Gaga is in charge of the company now, and they still haven't managed to come up with better ideas. I like this, but surely the design could have been a little more... spiffy. And iPhone compatibility is a must.
@sheckyluva7 I would take the picture in the effect you want first such as changing your photo effect on your camera to Black/White or Sepia, or negative or something like that then printing to the PoGo. Hope that helps!
Seriously, look at the size of the image, you can get camera screens bigger than that, and you don't have to waste a sheet of expensive paper, where are you going to put that...
@seaboo143 Im not a camera expert so I could be wrong here but I dont think the Pogo needs any ink because its a polaroid printer, I think he mentioned that in the video :)
I would like one but only as a toy. I mean who really wants photo's that small. And here in Australia we have 10c prints and can pick up within the hour, 15c instant prints. But here we have the pogo, that's just been released in the past few weeks, for $AU99. But this is 2 years later. I wonder how much is cost UK residents nowadays. I also wonder if they will ever make polaroids at 4x6. Coz I don't think that they'll make it too bulky if they went 4x6
i don't think that i saved money from this product like some say....coz i figured that it's $.30 per 2"X3" print compared with $.18 per 4"X6" print (glossy) at a local Walmart ! But as advertised it is an "instant digital printer" where there is no need to wait for hours even days for photos,yet the quality is still incomparable with regular 4"X6" prints.Would I recommend POGO? it's fun to have yet i'd only use it as a last option to print photos!
Am i the only person that, though very impressed and happy about the no ink cartridges, thinks that the quality of the pictures is worse than the original polaroid??
I like the concept of pictures devolping pictures in front of you. I hope Poloriod "perfected" this camera from the 1st instamatic camera they put out years ago !!!!!!
Why is everyone so upset about the size of the prints? The small size is part of its charm! It's only like an inch or so smaller than polaroid 600 film anyway.
@pomelo34 agreed, but still, since the old paper things are out of production (at least at my place you can't find them anymore, don't know if it's so for everyone), that's the best we can get.
i printed my very first picture on pogo but the printed picture was automatically cropped to the center. what size should my pictures be? so i can prevent this from happening again?
my dip shit ass put the paper in wrong,i should have just whatched this in the first place! thank youuu! But i have to ask,Do you always have to put the blue piece back in when your going to print again?
can you hook the Pogo up to your laptop and print pictures from there?
I have loads of pics on my laptop that i'd like to turn into prints, but i don't want to have to put them all onto an SD card to load into my camera in order to print :/
also a have a G1 phone and it seems to be pretty much bluetooth incompatile with everything!
thanks for the advice guys. i have been using online photo services, but i wanted the pogo for little snaps (and because it's cool).
my laptop doesn't have bluetooth, i was more hoping that there was a USB connection. it kinda sucks if there isn't as it's pretty standard in everything now.
i'm going to buy it.i was wondering does it work on my digital cam i have SD600.i was wondering you can print pics off your cellphone to the polaroid by using blue tooth?can you show me how it works?when the printer it coming out slow on the paper.
let's say you want to print more than 1 picture at a time. is there any way to tell your digicam to print all of the pics so you can leave the room and come back to 10 pics printed?
@rainbowseason impossible project .... (not a comment but a name of the endevour) the px 100 is good and they are working on a color version avaliable soon.!
I wanted one of those for my birthday, but now when i see how damn small the pictures are i dont. why can't they make a tool like that that prints regular size pictures??
According to Polaroid it's all down to how much power these things need to work. They need a lot of heat to make the paper develop and heat obviously needs a lot of battery so not only would larger paper make the thing bigger from the point of the paper taking up more room but you'd also need a lot more battery space.
omg the blue paper takes forever to take out, plus the pictures are so small
their older instant cameras are much better if you're really looking for instant photography which appeals to more artistic people or just enthusiasts
Yea they do make cameras with them in now i think there called "Polaroid Two - Digital Instant Camera" you can get them of FireBox and there about £229.95.
where do you get the printer from and the paper. thanx.
