3rd Gen Now (not plus)
This Now Generation 3 camera has an exposure system that is much-improved from the previous models. Keep in mind that this model does not have Bluetooth. If you want Bluetooth, you need to get the Now+ camera. You can still adjust the exposure value (+ or -) by long-pressing the flash button and then pressing it to get the light bar to go up or down.The timer button is up front and below the viewfinder window. Press it twice for double exposure mode. This camera is way lighter than the Now1st & 2nd generation, and Spectra. When shooting close like 3 feet or less, point the camera left and downward to compensate for parallax error. Development takes a lot longer than the old Spectra system. Full color and image is achieved after a few hours in cold temperatures.

Nostalgic but that's about it
After picking up the Polaroid Now 3rd Generation I-Type in Pebble White, I've got mixed feelings. The camera itself is fantastic - super easy to use, takes beautiful instant photos with that classic Polaroid look, and has a sleek, modern design that still feels nostalgic. The auto-focus works surprisingly well, and the battery life lasts through several packs of film.However, I'm definitely not thrilled about the ongoing cost of film. At around $15-20 per pack for just 8 shots, those instant memories add up quickly! I find myself being too selective about what I photograph because each press of the button is essentially $2-3 spent. For special occasions it's worth it, but it's hard to justify for everyday use.If you're okay with the film expenses or plan to use it sparingly for special moments, I'd recommend it. The camera itself is a solid 5 stars, but the film cost brings my overall rating down to 4 stars.

Good quality camera
This old school camera was a hit by adults and teens at my daughter sweet 16 bday. It was fun to take pictures and watch everyone fan them to rush the development. The picture quality was good! Big hit!

Underexposing nostalgia
I love instant photos and being a longtime user of Instax mini and wide products, I’ve been wanting to get my hands on Polaroid for a while. This is the newest generation of Polaroid cameras that’s supposed to provide better exposure controls. Kit comes with the camera, wrist strap, two packs of film and instruction sheet.I still have photos from early 80’s that were shot on Polaroid and it has very nostalgic attachment to them. The film is much larger than the typical Instax films and as such, they’re more expensive. Camera handling remind me of the retro Polaroid cameras although it’s missing the flip-up flash/cover. It’s got built-in rechargeable battery instead on one of the film and it has a digital counter of film left. Newer design is more modern and comes in very cute color schemes.Viewfinder is pretty accurate when shooting at least 4 feet away from the subject, when it’s closer, in my use, it’s more skewed to the left side. Instructions recommend that flash be left on for most scenarios and I left it on even in good light. I still have to experiment and learn but so far, the results have been a bit underwhelming as most of my shots are underexposed. Another thing I noticed is that you should keep the exposed side dark while developing and it takes a long time for the image to develop. Coming from Instax where I have image in a minute or so, these take more than 5 minutes to fully develop. I also found that in 3-5 feet range, AF can be thrown off and set to the wrong focal length resulting in blurry pictures.Overall, I’ll have to experiment more as I love the size of the film and feel of the images. However, the replacement film cost is bit on the high side which limits how much I can afford to experiment until I can get consistent results. If you value unique nostalgic feel from your prints, this may work for you but if you want more consistent result, you should expect to spend some money on film.
