More Info on Instant Print Thermal Printing Toy Cameras Art Making 034

I go a bit deeper on these toy instant print thermal printing cameras. If you have any questions post them in the comments. I also explore the idea of using a Phomemo or other thermal printer to get a similar look. They are a lot of fun, and great for art journaling. These are what I've been using to make the images for my crankies. I run after school art groups, I use these cams in the groups as well as for my own art journaling. I received many of these through the Amazon Vine program and bought others. Links to all those shown: Amazon affiliate links. All prices listed are from the time I posted. Many of these have coupons, some have frequent price changes, keep an eye out for deals.

Pink Unicorn Camera ($40): https://amzn.to/46Pf9KS Another pink unicorn cam ($40) https://amzn.to/3MELE6i Blue Plain Camera ($39): https://amzn.to/3Q8vxPe This is another pink unicorn camera, the print quality is somewhat better and it takes slightly better photos ($40): https://amzn.to/46PbpsK Another pink unicorn cam ($40): https://amzn.to/47CVrSs This case will fit all of the above cameras and 3 rolls of paper plus some pens and stuff: https://amzn.to/3MhyagL This camera prints similarly to the 2nd pink unicorn but is purple and yellow in color and has a shape clearly inspired by old Polaroid cameras ($15): https://amzn.to/3sdNhkA Black Polaroid inspired camera ($40) https://amzn.to/47b7VAP I do not recommend these: This camera is yellow and orange and is also shaped like an old Polaroid. It prints out at 4:3 which I like, but when it saves the images it stretches them to 16:9, so the images are distorted. If, like me, you hope to use the images on your thermal printer this is a no go. This one also has a flippy lens for selfies. ($36): https://amzn.to/3FzCHr2 Bulbous pink unicorn cam: https://amzn.to/3unVMKq This has the same issue as the one above. Green dino cam: https://amzn.to/40Nzs9g This uploads fine but has a forced wait before it will print. It does have a selfie cam. This case fits the purple or orange cams plus a few rolls of paper and a cord: https://amzn.to/3QABndP This is the paper that I use. It’s cheap and is nice and glossy and has good contrast when printed on. It’s also thicker than some of the other papers I’ve used and doesn’t have a plastic core. ($14) https://amzn.to/3SdGWA8 This is the paper I bought for work, it’s much thicker and very glossy. https://amzn.to/3SzTp14 Colored sticker paper I use. https://amzn.to/47eQHTu Brought to you by: ComfortablesShoesStudio.com Links Blog: ComfortableShoesStudio.com Rants: Micro.ComfortableShoesStudio.com Instagram   / originallcharper   Twitters   / originalcharper   (I don't actively participate on twitter but auto load all updates for everything here.)

Amazon Wishlist: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls... LuLu suggested that I make an Amazon wishlist, I struggle with asking for this kind of help, but I'm doing it. I struggled even more with adding big ticket items like a a tablet or new computer but I figure I might as well put it on there.
