Features

Overview: The Polaroid POP Instant Digital Camera can record still images, HD video, or short GIFs and store them in the built-in memory or on an optional memory card. You can instantly print your photos right in the camera, or save them for later. Prints are made on 3-1/2" x 4-1/4" ZINK Zero Ink paper with the classic Polaroid border. The camera also features built-in Wi-Fi for wirelessly sending your images or videos to other devices. The Polaroid POP camera comes with a starter 10-pack of ZINK paper, a USB cable, and a color-matched wrist strap.

ZINK Zero Ink Technology: ZINK Zero Ink technology provides inkless printing by embedding color into the paper. ZINK paper made of an advanced composite material which uses embedded colorful dye crystals inside, with a protective polymer overcoat layer outside. When heat is applied, full-color images appear on the paper. No ink cartridges or ribbons are needed. The images are 3" x 3", and are printed on 3-1/2" x 4-1/4" paper with the classic Polaroid border. Prints come out dry to the touch, and are smudge-proof, water-resistant, and tear-resistant. ZINK paper for the Polaroid POP is available in packs of 10, 20, and 40 sheets. The camera holds 10 sheets of ZINK paper at a time. Each pack contains a printed blue Color Calibration Sheet to optimize the camera.
