Most Expensive Polaroid VS Cheapest Polaroid: Comparing the I-2 and "The Button"

My name is Jake and I overhaul, repair and upgrade instant cameras! Want your camera upgraded like you see here? Then message me through the links below! In today's episode, for a bit of fun I compare one of Polaroid's most advanced cameras against one of their simplest. It's a battle of CHEAP vs PREMIUM 00:15 - Overview of both cameras 15:01 - Comparison photos 31:54 - Final thoughts Prash' video on the I-2 -    • Polaroid I-2: The modern successor to vint...   Prash' video in the I-2 exposure issues -    • Polaroid I-2 exposure - Testing precision ...   If you like this kind of content, let me know in the comments below. What else would you like to see? This will be one of a few videos I do regarding the new Polaroid I-2. A future video discussing the non-user replaceable battery is planned for the future. Like what I do? Find this video helpful or entertaining? Feel free to buy me a beer (or two!): https://ko-fi.com/theinstantcameraguy Getting artifacts in the video? For best quality, manually select 1080p quality, as depending on your bandwidth, YouTube may default to 720p - and YouTube's 720p compression looks like garbage ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Initially I planned on comparing the Polaroid I-2 to one of my "SX-70R" PCB modified SX-70 - in an all-out battle of manual-control Polaroids. BUT, I still need to complete the SX-70R manual control camera... so while I finish that up, I thought it would be fun to do a much more ridiculous comparison. What if I compared Polaroids most expensive current camera, to one of their cheapest they ever released? Its literally-marketed-for-children 'THE BUTTON' vs aimed-at-pros "I-2". WHO WILL WIN YOU DECIDE ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In future videos I will discuss: the new Polaroid I-2 non user replaceable battery issues I-2 vs SX-70R ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Got a Polaroid that needs some love?
