Amazon.com Review

Polaroid's i-zone pocket cameras produce tiny, high-quality Polaroid pictures about the size of a frame of 35mm film (or your average postage stamp). The i-zones use either sticky or nonsticky instant film, so you can put your pictures in a frame or stick them onto your notebook or CD player. While the cameras all have the same funky oblong plastic design, they are available in a variety of interesting color schemes. The silver edition is a solid silver color, while phat blue and fireball red are neonlike translucent monotones, and the jade version is two-tone with an aqua green front and bluish back. The camera turns itself off automatically after each shot to conserve battery power.

Each i-zone set comes with a camera and two AA alkaline batteries. Film is sold separately. Loading the camera is as easy as dropping the film cartridge into the back of the camera and closing it back up. The trickiest part is remembering to pull the film tab out in one fluid motion, without stopping--exactly like most other Polaroids. When you expose a shot and pull out the film, you get something that looks like a Band-Aid, with an image in the middle and extra paper on both ends. Just clip the extra paper off with a pair of scissors and you have your final product. Be careful not to cut into the actual photo as you don't want to give the caustic paste inside a chance to seep out and get on your fingers.

There are three exposure settings on the i-zone--indoors (with flash), outdoor/sunny, and outdoor/cloudy. Overall, the camera is probably best for subjects within 2 to 8 feet, although we took pictures of downtown buildings that turned out pretty well. The outdoor/sunny setting requires bright sun directly on the subject for a good exposure. Even if it isn't cloudy, try using the outdoor/cloudy setting if the subject is in shadow or if it is early or late in the day when the sunlight isn't at full strength. The flash seems to work best from about 4 to 5 feet away.

The best part is figuring out what to do with the miniphotos once you've created them. The options seem to be limitless, from decorating cell phones to putting them in miniframes to creating photo albums. These cameras are affordable, simple to use, and a lot of fun. --Walt Opie

5 out of 5 stars You'll Be Amazed at the Fun You'll Have with this Camera.......2006-05-20

If you are looking for a fun way to document your friends, this is it. Bring this i-Zone to your next gathering and you'll be amazed at how much fun you'll have with it. People will almost be waiting in line to get their photo taken! There is something very non-threatening about having your photo taken when it's on little miniature polaroid film with a sticky back. Even the people who will never let you take their picture will suddenly want a sticker shot of themself.

Polaroid really hit the goldmine with the i-Zone. It's an easy to use camera - just select your mode (indoors, outdoor/sunny, or outdoor/cloudy), point, shoot and then pull the strip of film out. Then voila! Your very own miniature print appears like magic right in front of your eyes.

4 out of 5 stars Great Gifts for the Needy.......2005-12-16

I've been told by others who've used it for the purpose, overseas, that the little photos produced by these cameras are a wonderful and much-appreciated gift that produces a LOT of excitement in the kids in India and elsewhere who are in so much need that they're begging from tourists, but who are often being abused and exploited in order to make money for others. This is a gift for THEM; sometimes they'll have no other photo of themselves other than what you just took for them to keep for themselves or give to someone who cares about them. What a great idea ... I'm buying one for my upcoming trip. Something of lasting value; better than candy or money.

5 out of 5 stars Instant Flashcards.......2004-05-12

I got this camera to make picture flash-cards for my autistic spectrum daughter. The pictures are small enough to easily fit a number on each page of her card book but clear enough that she has no problem identifying them. I highly recommend the i-zone, and the sticky back pictures are very convenient.

5 out of 5 stars This is the perfect instant camera........2004-05-09

I highly recommend this i-Zone camera to anyone who wants to take focus free, good quality instant pictures. What you see in the viewfinder is exactly what you get (unlike other "toy" cameras where you have to guess what how your final photo will turn out). The photos come out crisp, clear and colorful.

This is a great camera to throw in your backpack and have handy at a moment's notice.

5 out of 5 stars Fantastic little camera.......2004-05-04

Polaroid's i-zone site tells me that this camera is aimed at people at least fifteen years younger than me. Okay. Whatever.

I've been a fan of it since it was invented, and I still am, even though I own digital cameras five hundred times more expensive. Casual photos are all about what you can do with them. The i-zone doesn't just produce pictures, it produces toys. Give them to people. Stick them on things. Take one of these to the pub and you'll get people queuing up to have their picture taken. Send them on postcards - many times cheaper and more convenient than a pocket-sized printer and glue.

Basically this camera is perfect for grown-ups with lives, as well as teenagers. And it's not exactly expensive either. If you like taking spontaneous photos, this is the device for you. No other camera has brought me as much enjoyment.

Polaroid's i-zone pocket cameras produce tiny, high-quality Polaroid pictures about the size of a frame of 35mm film (or your average postage stamp). The i-zones use either sticky or nonsticky instant film, so you can put your pictures in a frame or stick them onto your notebook or portable CD/MP3 player. While the cameras all have the same funky oblong plastic design, they are available in a variety of interesting color schemes. The silver edition is a solid grayish silver color, while Phat Blue and Fireball Red are neon-like translucent monotones, and the purple version is two-tone with a grape front and dark bluish back. The camera turns itself off automatically after each shot to conserve battery power.

Each i-zone set comes complete with camera, instant pocket film (six shots), and two AA alkaline batteries--everything you need to start making pictures. We recommend buying extra film right away, especially if the camera is a gift, because those first six shots tend to go pretty fast. Loading the camera is as easy as dropping the film cartridge into the back of the camera and closing it. The trickiest part is remembering to pull the film tab out in one fluid motion, without stopping--exactly like most other Polaroids. When you expose a shot and pull out the film, you get something that looks like a Band-Aid, with an image in the middle and extra paper on both ends. Just clip the end paper off with a pair of scissors and you have your final product. Be careful not to cut into the actual photo, as you don't want to give the caustic paste inside a chance to seep out and get on your fingers.

5 out of 5 stars Polaroid i-zone.......2003-01-02

This is one of my cameras that I have that I love. It's cute and easy to use and it fits in your bag come on you know you love it I know I do. It's good for parties or to go to the park for the day.

5 out of 5 stars Great for parties, outings, and general use.......2001-03-27

This camera can be a wonderful tool when capturing all kinds of up close photos. The pictures can make outrageous statements than better said in a normal snap shot. Additionally this camera produces instant gratification - and you can give them away as quick as you take them. The sticky feature is nice, although I prefer the non-stick. These make great additives to notes, wallets, computers, anywhere really - my fridge is loaded with them. If you shop around for the film it ends up being about 50 cents a picture. Basically if you're looking for non-traditional pics to spice up your life, this would be the way to go!

And as others have noted, the flash button is a little loose, so act responsibly and you obviously need to get up close to the person you are photographing (or thing) because they are small images. If you want big images or negatives don't buy this product.

4 out of 5 stars So Simple To Use...................2000-12-05

I am a 12 year old that LOVES to take pictures. This camera is great because all I have to do is snap the picuture and pull out the film. Then, if I want to give the picture to my friend, I just cut off the extra paper and give it to them. It is so simple I even let my 4 year old sister take a picture and then let her take out the film.

4 out of 5 stars Very Cool.......2000-10-11

This camera is light, VERY easy to use, fun, and SO VERY convenient if you don't like waiting for the photo shop to develope your pictures, and great when you like capturing lots of nice moments between friends, family, and pets. It takes awesome pictures inside AND outside. And you can pick your own cool color, and pick your own funky design you want of the paper the picture comes out on. It is SOOOOOOOO easy to use. And the picture developes fast. But......and I hate to use that word, there was one tiny flaw that kind of disappointed me, the fact that the pictures are smaller than what they advertise them to be, they're not super duper tiny, but they are pretty small, so it makes the faces of the people hard to make out if your not RIGHT UP in their face taking the picture. But other than that, the sticky film takes good pic's and is fun to stick everywhere around you. But the film is kinda pricey for only 12 photo's per package, but I personally think its worth it, so I recomend buying one.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent Buy.......2000-06-27

I bought this camera for my neice who is a teenager. She couldnt thank me enough for it. She loved the color of the camera as well. You can also use Polaroid Sticky Film, that you can use to decorate just about anything with. It makes this product even more enjoyable. She has gotten alot of use out of this camera. This is a camera for all ages. I highly recommend it.

5 out of 5 stars Beware: Film must say Sticky to have adhesive! Great Camera!.......2004-10-14

I love this camera but I bought it and also could not figure out how to get photos to stick. I called toll free polaroid number and they explained there are 2 types of film. Plain and one that says sticky..but this camera is a blast! Very fun! Just need to know if you want photo STICKERS..BUY STICKY FILM!

1 out of 5 stars Not like other polaroids.......2002-03-22

this was abig disappointment. The photos do not come out automatically like our regular Polaroid. This was a birthday present for my daughter and the first time out she pulled and three photos came straight out and did not tear off in between. I thoguht she'd be taking photos and sticking them everywhere, but the thing is gathering dust in a drawer somewhere.

5 out of 5 stars Great gift!.......2001-12-24

This simple little camera will be a huge hit at weddings, parties, goofy weekends hanging out with friends and family, and everything in between. I have a silver izone myself but gave 2 of these clear red ones for Christmas: fun and festive presents that I know will get lots of use. It would also be a wonderful gift for Valentine's Day, not only because of it's hot fireball colour, but because you and your honey can use it to record all kinds of happy moments together all year 'round.

4 out of 5 stars Camera's Great - Film Doesn't Stick.......2001-11-22

The camera is great for kids! Easy and fun to use. The camera should come with more detailed instructions on peeling the back off of the film to get it to stick. We've gone through roll and haven't figured it out yet. It is a fun camera for the price.

4 out of 5 stars I-Zone Cameras.......2001-09-04

I don't personally have an iZone camera, but my friend has one, and I think they're really neat. The film is really expensive, but otherwise they're fun, and easy, and better than having to wait to get regular film developed. iZone cameras are cool, get your own!!!!

Amazon.com Product Description

Polaroid's updated version of the i-zone instant camera lets you personalize your camera with several fun, colorful faceplates that you can change on a whim to fit your mood, match your outfit, or match your favorite color. And because this camera has front and top changeable faceplates, you can mix-and-match the colors and patterns. It comes with two sets of color changeable faceplates that clip easily into place.

This i-zone isn't just the old version with colorful faceplates, however. Polaroid has also redesigned the entire body with a sleeker, more aerodynamic shape and feel; the smaller body fits into a pocket or bag easier than ever. But the new look does not affect the easy-to-use features of the original i-zone camera. It is still focus-free, with a built-in flash and simple film loading. The three settings, indoors (with flash), outdoor/sunny, and outdoor/cloudy allow you to pick the best mode for your scene or subject, adding to your creative control.

Capture lots of fun moments with instant pictures the size of a postage stamp, using either sticky or nonsticky film, then let your creativity go wild. Decorate notebooks, folders, invitations, anything you can think of! The more unique, the better. These mini-pictures are ideal for sharing and trading with your friends. The possibilities are endless, so be sure to stock up on plenty of extra film.

5 out of 5 stars Fun camera for all ages!.......2003-08-25

I read all the reviews and don't know why people don't think this is a fun camera! I'm a mom with little kids, I have a digital camera, an SLR, a point-n-shoot, a camcorder and now this I-zone - it's just plain fun to have. Oh, and I scrapbook too. This design is sleeker & easier to use than the original model - not so many parts poking out. I spent [money] for the camera at [a local discount store] & 3 pack of regular film is less than [money] there too ([money] more for sticky film.) So for instant photos - that price can't be beat. I used them as party favors at my 4 year old daughter's party - it was a hit! I can see us using it at school or any kid function. Photos are clear, note: instructions say it works best with photos taken 2 to 4 ft away from subject...with the small size of the photo you want it for close-ups anyway. I completely agree with the other reviews from "Neat little camera-April '03 and Fun!!!-Feb '02" I've found accessories (tiny photo album w/clip-on and magnet frames shaped like water splashes, photo key chains)on clearance at Ritz Camera and Wolf Camera stores...more items to go with this cool camera. I recommend getting it & just having some fun!

4 out of 5 stars Neat little camera.......2003-04-18

I bought this camera to take pictures of my toddler. The size of the pictures makes them great for scrapbooking, especially with the sticky film. I also bought this camera for my niece. I think it is great fun to have the instant satisfaction in a compact little photo. The photo quality is pretty good, but I'm still experimenting with indoor photos verses outdoor photos. One feature that I think is great is the flash. You set the flash, and once you take the picture the camera turns off. This is a great way to save the battery. I read some comments that the film is expensive, but at around 5.00 a box you get 12 pics that you don't have to get developed. Seems like a good deal to me.

2 out of 5 stars Not Worth It.......2003-02-22

The Polaroid i-zone camera was definately not worth the money I spent on it. The pictures are so tiny you can barely make out what's in them, plus the film is sooo expensive. If your willing to spend all your money on film then I guess it's an okay camera, but it's not even that much fun to use.

2 out of 5 stars Rip off.......2003-01-26

While the camera works fine, the film is so expensive that it is difficult to refill. This is not recommended as a gift, especially for younger people, to whom the ads seem to be aimed.

5 out of 5 stars Awesome camera!.......2002-06-08

I have had this camera for almost 7 mounths now and love it! I take it everywhere with me. I took it to prom and it was great to back home and show my parents what we did and what everything looked like. You don't have to wait a long time for the film to develop. It is an easy use camera. Great for the front of my notebook or just on my school stuff. Everyone loves them and their instant pitures. It was one of the best gifts I got...

Amazon.com Review

Polaroid's i-zone pocket cameras produce tiny, high-quality Polaroid pictures about the size of a frame of 35mm film (or your average postage stamp). The i-zones use either sticky or nonsticky instant film, so you can put your pictures in a frame or stick them onto your notebook or CD player. While the cameras all have the same funky oblong plastic design, they are available in a variety of interesting color schemes. The silver edition is a solid silvery gray color, while Phat Blue and Fireball Red are neon-like translucent monotones, and most others are two-tone, like the Jade version, which has an aqua green front and bluish back.

Each i-zone set comes complete with camera, instant pocket film (six shots), and two AA alkaline batteries--everything you need to start making pictures. We recommend buying extra film right away, especially if the camera is a gift, because those first six shots tend to go pretty fast. Loading the camera is as easy as dropping the film cartridge into the back of the camera and closing it back up. The trickiest part is remembering to pull the film tab out in one fluid motion, without stopping--exactly like most other Polaroids. When you expose a shot and pull out the film, you get something that looks like a Band-Aid, with an image in the middle and extra paper on both ends. Just clip the extra paper off with a pair of scissors and you have your final product. Be careful not to cut into the actual photo, as you don't want to give the caustic paste inside a chance to seep out and get on your fingers.

There are three exposure settings on the i-zone--indoors (with flash), outdoor/sunny, and outdoor/cloudy. Overall, the camera is probably best for subjects within 2 to 8 feet, although we took pictures of downtown buildings that turned out pretty well. The outdoor/sunny setting requires bright sun directly on the subject for a good exposure. Even if it isn't cloudy, try using the outdoor/cloudy setting if the subject is in shadow or if it is early or late in the day when the sunlight isn't at full strength. The flash seems to work best from about 4 to 5 feet away.

The best part is figuring out what to do with the mini photos once you've created them. The options seem to be limitless, from decorating cell phones to using them as key chains, putting them in mini frames, or making refrigerator magnets. These cameras are affordable, simple to use, and a lot of fun. --Walt Opie

This small camera is ideal for young children to adults. It provides the user with instant pictures. Film for the camera can be purchased with a sticky or nonsticky backing and is easily intalled into the camera. The mediocre flash adds some functionality to the fun camera. The flashy colors and design add a blast of "ah-ha" to the cameras overall appearence. Althought the film is moderately expensive in relation to regular film, the addition of the "neat effect" balance the two. With a relatively low retail price, you will be investing in a camera and a great time!

5 out of 5 stars Fun camera!.......2001-04-11

I've had my i-zone camera since they first came out, and I constantly use it (when I can afford the film, that is!). I've bought a few more for friends as gifts, and everyone seems to enjoy them. The i-zone camera is a fun thing to take small pictures with, and the sticky film is awesome!

1 out of 5 stars Piece of junk........2001-02-17

Picture quality is consistently extremely poor. Very small image. Film is over priced. Camera breaks extremely easily. Images do not scan well even on a high quality scanner. I think the product is mostly just a gimick and a fad which I hope disappears quickly. I recieved one for free as a prize in a contest at a web site. Tried it out, and I think it's completely useless. I would not even purchase as a gift for someone. Reguardless as to how much they want it except to satisfy curiosity. It will most likely end up either collecting dust or being sold at garage sales for a penny. However, if it goes out of production quickly enough maybe they'll become collectables.

4 out of 5 stars Sort of Cheap Fun.......2001-01-31

I often buy this as a gift, especially for the 8-12 year old group. It's easy to use and the pictures aren't bad - they're about 1 X 1 1/2 inches and have the same fuzzy flattering quality of the regular size Polaroids. The film isn't cheap, though, and after the kids run through the measly 5 picture roll that's included, Mom and Dad or older kids with allowances get to shell out close to [price] for another 3-roll pack (12 pictures each). But it is fun and kids of all ages love it.

5 out of 5 stars Polaroid I Zone Camera.......2001-01-23

I love my I Zone camera, but what I don't like about it is that the film isn't very good. What I mean is, it's sharp and everything, but the sticky stuff on the back isn't very durable. Also, it's about 50 cents a shot. I'm 12 years old, so that's a bit expensive for me. Another thing is, I can only find sticky film. The closest place to my house I could find non sticky film was 5 miles away (and I can't even drive yet) But that's not something to judge the camera by.) I would recomend the camera to anyone who's under 15.

Amazon.com Review

Polaroid's i-zone pocket cameras produce tiny, high-quality Polaroid pictures about the size of a frame of 35mm film (or your average postage stamp). The i-zones use either sticky or nonsticky instant film, so you can put your pictures in a frame or stick them onto your notebook or portable CD/MP3 player. While the cameras all have the same funky oblong plastic design, they are available in a variety of interesting color schemes. The camera turns itself off automatically after each shot to conserve battery power.

Loading the camera is as easy as dropping the film cartridge into the back of the camera and closing it back up. The trickiest part is remembering to pull the film tab out in one fluid motion, without stopping--exactly like most other Polaroids. When you expose a shot and pull out the film, you get something that looks like a Band-Aid, with an image in the middle and extra paper on both ends. Just clip the extra paper off with a pair of scissors and you have your final product. Be careful not to cut into the actual photo, as you don't want to give the caustic paste inside a chance to seep out and get on your fingers.

There are three exposure settings on the i-zone--indoors (with flash), outdoor/sunny, and outdoor/cloudy. Overall, the camera is probably best for subjects within two to eight feet, although we took pictures of downtown buildings that turned out pretty well. The outdoor/sunny setting requires bright sun directly on the subject for a good exposure. Even if it isn't cloudy, try using the outdoor/cloudy setting if the subject is in shadow or if it is early or late in the day when the sunlight isn't at full strength. The flash seems to work best from about four to five feet away.

The best part is figuring out what to do with the mini photos once you've created them. The options seem to be limitless, from decorating cell phones to using them as key chains, putting them in mini frames, or making refrigerator magnets. These cameras are affordable, simple to use, and a lot of fun. --Walt Opie

Amazon.com Product Description

Polaroid's new i-zone instant pocket camera is the latest "go-everywhere, must-have item," and this one comes in "bliss blue." It produces postage-stamp-sized photographs, available with either a sticky or nonsticky backing, and offers a selectable built-in flash that automatically shuts off after each shot to conserve batteries. The picture quality is one of Polaroid's best, producing vivid colors and surprisingly excellent detail for such a small image. Loading the Polaroid i-zone is simple, and using it is even simpler. There is no need to focus, the built-in flash fires automatically, and the camera is small enough to slip into a purse or the small pocket on a backpack. The pocket camera is not just about taking pictures--it's also about what you decide to do with them.

3 out of 5 stars Polaroid I-Zone Camara.......2001-08-28

This camara was really fun to use and I had fun with it for a while. But unless you are living in a college dorm or somewhere else where you can use the pictures to do all the great stuff on the commercials,(Would anyone really do that anyway?)it is really no use. My camara also ran out of batteries very often, so all the pictures I took indoors, when the flash did not work, were ruined (plus the film is definetly not cheap). Don't get me wrong the camara is fun to use, but you need the right time to use it, or else you will end up with a pile of stickers sitting on the desk in your room, like me.

4 out of 5 stars very cool camera.......2001-09-10

This is a very, very fun camera, it takes really cute pictures and looks great also. The pictures are surprisingly good concidering they are only a little bit larger than a stamp. The only complaint I have is that the camera takes a picture of more than what you see through the veiw finder, it takes a little getting used to.

4 out of 5 stars its great.......2004-08-28

Its an awesome camera!it has a sleek design,and the thing to put around your wrist. But the film acually cost MORE than the camera!!!!!! And since it has different settings, if you choose the wrong setting, it comes out all blurry! And somtimes it leaks this weird stuff on you that you have to wash off FAST!
I would reccomend this camera to everyone who doesn't mind being careful with settings, getting camera junk on you, and spending a fortune on film!

4 out of 5 stars Cool!.......2004-03-21

Once I saw this camera I wanted it! I have it now it is the coolest camera from polaroid! The camera is cool even the film is cool if you had to do a report with pictures this is what you need!If you want to have fun this is what you need less crapy more quality!

I-Zone Rocks!

4 out of 5 stars LOVE IT!!.......2002-01-05

This camera is SO awesome. My friend got one and then I did. I'm glad she suggested it to me. It's so fun. Just shoot it and... VOILA... the picture coes right out of the camera! It is so fun to play around with. The only egative thing about it is the film costs a LOT and you only get so many film sticks. Other than that, this is a really cool product. I would DEFINETLY add this to my wish list.

4 out of 5 stars I LOVED IT!!.......2000-10-08

The sleek and compact size is totally awesome for those "I wish I had my camera" moments. The only dissappointment was that sometimes the pics don't come out, like they will have an exposed streak in them. This only happened to me 2 times out of a whole bunch of rolls of film, and the other let down was the film is OUTRAGOUSLY EXPENSIVE!! It comes to almost a dollar a picture!!! i was like OOOMMMMGGG!

5 out of 5 stars Great Teen Pleaser!.......2000-06-27

I bought this camera for my nephew and he LOVES it! It allows him to take a picture and use it as a sticker to decorate his personal things. He takes pictures of his cousins that he doesn't get to see very often and sticks them on his school books, where he can see them everyday. It also will make a great locker decorator. I think it's a really great idea! He has made magnets out of the pictures too.

4 out of 5 stars It's pretty okay.......2001-01-07

Well the I-zone camera is definetely fun and easy to use. I enjoyed it, but don't let the phrase pocket camera fool you because its not that small. It does fit in a purse or a really really large pocket so I would say it's a "normal" not a "pocket size" cam.

The button you click to take pictures is really big, so if you do put it in a purse becareful because it may go off accidentaly. Be sure to keep extra film with you and be sparing with your pictures becuase you only have 12 per roll.

As for the color of the actual camera, it's kind of a really light puke green but of course they make it sound really radical and call it "wasabe."

The pictures are not digital quality but hey they develope right there and you can tell who is in the picture so thats a plus, right?

Anywhoooooo.. its a decent product, fun to use and has a ton of neat little accessories. Not a travel camera but maybe a fun "trip to the beach" cam or "lets take dumb pics of ourselves at high school" cam I give it a 4. Exciting ehh?
