Films for the Polaroid Originals OneStep 2 Mint

The Polaroid Originals OneStep 2 Mint requires instant film. You can use films for the type 600 format, which are produced for the old Polaroid camera, or i-Type films, which are specially produced for the OneStep.

There is a film for color images with the Polaroid Color Film for i-Type*. For black and white images there is the Polaroid B&W Film for i-Type*. Both packages contain one film cassette each with eight unexposed images.

After inserting the film into the camera, a motor transports the dark slide out of the camera and photography can begin. After exposure, the camera pushes the image through two rollers to distribute the developing chemicals over the image. After a few minutes you have the finished picture in your hand. There is no need to shake the image during development.
