The Polaroid 600 Carrots – A contemporary instant camera in a classic design. This unique piece was created by the renowned company Retrospekt in the USA and presented in collaboration with Carrots.
This special edition represents a redesign of the original Polaroid One Step Flash. All models have been carefully overhauled and checked for functionality, followed by a redesign of the exterior that makes them unique.
As the name “Carrots” suggests, the camera impresses with its distinctive orange design inspired by the iconic vegetable. The prominent logo and brand name proudly adorn the front of the camera, giving it a special touch.
The camera is characterized by a permanently installed lens. Although it does not have a zoom function or adjustable focal length and does not offer the ability to adjust focus, the integrated light meter allows easy adjustments to the exposure settings using the brightness/darkness slider on the front.
Thanks to its user-friendly features, this camera allows even beginners to take high-quality photos after a short introduction. It is perfect for special occasions such as weddings or parties.
The built-in flash, which triggers automatically, ensures optimal lighting, but can also be deactivated if necessary by only pressing the back part of the shutter button when taking photos.
The camera and flash are powered by a battery in the film cassette, which is replaced every time the film is changed, so no additional batteries are required.
Film options for the Polaroid 600 Carrots
Freshly produced films are now available again for the Polaroid 600 Carrots, offering an interesting selection. Both black and white and color films are available. The film for color recordings is called Polaroid Color Film for 600*, while the Polaroid B&W Film for 600* is ideal for monochrome recordings.
Each film pack contains eight exposures. Once all images have been used, new film must be inserted. Please note that no film material is included. Developing time varies between five and fifteen minutes depending on the film type, and shaking the images does not affect development time.
