Polaroid State Farm Insurance

The Polaroid State Farm Insurance is an instant camera from Polaroid. The range of functions offered by the model corresponds to the Polaroid One Step (rounded corners).

This model was produced for the State Farm Insurance group. It is already the second 600 model for the American company. The body is in black and red, the colors of the brand company. Next to the flash is the State Farm Insurance logo.

The Polaroid State Farm Insurance stands out for its straightforward handling. The majority of setting parameters familiar from other cameras are not available on this version. Its simplicity allows it to be used on many different occasions. If you are planning a wedding or a party, the camera is a good choice for taking pictures. The camera is also a great travel companion on vacation.

The most important settings are fixed. For example, the aperture and shutter speed cannot be changed by the user. The optics have a fixed focal length. Changing the lens is not possible. There is no zoom function, as with a digital camera. For a close-up shot, you have to get closer to your subject. The minimum distance for focusing is 60 cm. For the clearest possible pictures, this minimum distance must be ensured.

The Polaroid instant camera has a built-in photo flash. It fires automatically when the picture is taken. Due to the small aperture, the use of the flash is especially useful indoors.

Films for Polaroid State Farm Insurance

Of great importance for the instant camera are the corresponding photo films. The original film material can no longer be found in stores. However, since 2010, a new company has been producing suitable film material again.

There is a color and black and white film for 600 format cameras. The Polaroid Color Film for 600* is the film for color images. The right grip for black and white images goes to the Polaroid B&W Film for 600*. In different test reports, both usually get a good resume.

One box contains eight photos. The light-sensitive material must not come into contact with light under any circumstances. The ideal storage conditions are found in a clean and dark place.

The size, 10.8 x 8.8 cm, of a picture has not changed over the decades. The captured photo is square and measures 7.7 by 7.7 cm. The remaining space is filled by the familiar frame around the Polaroid picture. In the offer there are also Polaroid films with colored frames.

Is it possible to use the Instax films? Clear answer, no! The films do not fit the camera.

Batteries

What kind of batteries do you need for Polaroid State Farm Insurance? The power source of the camera is a battery located in the film cassette. It supplies power to the camera technology and flash. So changing the film also represents changing the power source. This is the only battery needed for the camera.

The film cassette with the battery must not be disposed of in household waste. It is best to take the plastic cassette or battery to an appropriate local drop-off location.
