Printomatic Full-Color Instant Print Digital Camera, Zink 2x3" (5.1x7.5 cm) Sticky-Back Photo Paper, 5MP, Portable, Creative Fun Gift for Birthday, Christmas, Holiday, Blue

So, I wasn’t entirely sure what to expect when I ordered this because there were mucked reviews. For the price, and the fact that it would arrive the same day, I couldn’t resist! So, I received it, same day, as promised and a lot of people said that it didn’t come with a charger. If you read the box and instructions, a charger isn’t included. It uses a micro USB charger. My husband had one so I charged it with that. It also came with some photo paper. The camera itself works pretty well, it takes some getting used to because you think it’s going to have more in the picture than it does. I’m getting better at it though. The photos are not super clear, but they’re not really fuzzy either. Depending on the lighting, the color can look weird. Overall, so far, I’m super happy with it. It’s a fun little camera and to top it all off, they pictures are also stickers.

Very good quality!! Instant photos

I really wanted to love the KODAK Printomatic because the idea is so much fun. If you grew up in the '80s or '90s, there's something really nostalgic about taking a picture and having it print instantly on sticky-back paper. For the experience alone, I'd give it an **8/10**. Unfortunately, the **photo quality is terrible**. I'm a white woman, and every single picture makes me look completely washed out—like a ghost. I took photos with friends of different skin tones, and we joked that we looked like a s'more: one friend looked like the chocolate, another like the marshmallow, and I was basically the graham cracker... except you could barely see the marshmallow or the graham cracker because the lighter skin tones were so overexposed. The worst part is that **lighting didn't seem to matter**. We tried indoors, outdoors, bright sunlight, shade, with the sun behind us, and with the light in front of us. The results were consistently disappointing. Faces lacked detail, colors were faded, and everything looked overexposed and low quality. For a camera that costs around **$65**, I expected much better. I wasn't expecting professional-quality photos, but I did expect something decent—maybe a **3–5 out of 10** for image quality. Instead, I'd honestly rate the photo quality a **1/10**, maybe even **0/10**. I'll upload photos with this review so you can judge for yourself. **Pros:** * Fun, nostalgic instant-print experience. * Sticky-back prints are great for journals, scrapbooks, and memory books. * Simple to use. **Cons:** * Extremely poor photo quality. * Lighter skin tones become washed out. * Colors are dull and inconsistent. * Lighting changes make little to no difference. * Not worth the price if image quality matters. **Overall:** If you're buying this for the nostalgia and don't mind low-quality prints, you might still have fun with it. But if you're expecting decent-looking photos, I'd skip it. The concept is great—the execution just isn't.

A couple notes if you are considering buying this product. The quality of the photos displayed in the advertisement is much better than what you will get. The flash seems to always be activated which washes the colors out. This can easily be fixed by covering the flash but the colors will not be the same. You will have some washing regardless, but if you want a vantage style photo then this is the product for you. The refill packs are also fairly small (10 max) so you will have to buy a refill set rather quickly and haven’t least one refill ready if you plan to use the camera on dates, at events, etc. Other than those flaws, the product does what it is advertised to do. And unlike some other camera, you don’t have to worry about missing your first photo because you put a new pack in and forgot about the blank, the camera will automatically print the photo on the first empty sheet. (The photo shows the difference between when the flash is covered and uncovered, with the uncovered photo being on the bottom)

Love this camera! It's very easy to use. It doesn't come charged, so if you're having trouble with it, plug it in (hold the power button to turn it on). There are three lights on the bottom left: battery, printing, and SD card. If the battery is white, it's fine to use, if printing is white, it's printing, and if SD card is red there's no micro SD (white means there is). The pictures it takes are super cute and very fun, but don't buy this if you're expecting iPhone or other camera quality pictures. They're different than polaroid prints, but are very similar quality to cameras from the early 2000s/2010s or so. You can see everything but it's not going to be super vivid and the color will be a little off. Also, try to take pictures in light, but as you can see in the last photo, the camera won't always adjust to super bright light like another camera would. I bought this as the used (like new description) and it was in perfect condition. The box had a slight mark but had never been opened. This product comes with 10 sheets of paper, but if you're looking to buy more, amazon has HP Zink 2x3 sticky back paper that is cheaper than the Kodak brand of the same exact thing, and works just as well. Really no difference, just a few dollars more. Last thing: in the instruction manual it comes with, the black and white vs color switch instructions seem to be slightly wrong. If you can see the three colorful dots, your photo will come out in color. If the dots are grey and black, it'll be black and white. The manual seemed to reverse this, so I figured I'd mention it. :)

Bought it for my 5 year old so he could have a camera that doesn't have a screen or games and prints right away. He loved it until it broke! Dropped it a few times by mistake, and now it doesn't print anything when you take a photo - it just bends the paper a bit so you can see that it tried to print. Poor picture quality. Would love a cheaper version of this - I'm not going to replace it at this price!

Good

When Kodak announced they will release a Zink instant camera, I could not be happier. As an owner of the Polaroid Zink Snap and Fuji Instax 9, I couldn’t wait to get my hands on one. Growing up we always had Kodak around the house, and we have many pictures that we printed with our Kodak’s. And I am very excited about the Printomatic First of all for the price of $69.99 it is a great value, and the design looks great, you can choose a yellow or grey color version. The Zink quality is great with the camera. Included in the box is: Printomatic, USB cable, QSG, Hand Strap. (Note no paper is included so make sure you get some of those as well) Even though Fuji Instax is similar price, Instax quality doesn’t compare to the Kodak Zink quality. Also with Kodak it is a digital camera so you can save the pictures you take, and most important cost per print is $0.50 for Zink and it is close to $1 for Fuji It was very simple to insert the paper into the camera back door, just make sure blue paper is facing downwards , which will print out in first print and it cleans the camera Very simple to use, choose color or black and white option, then just snap. And picture will print out very fast. All in all I highly recommend this as your instant option

Fotoğraf makinesi güzel pratik, beklentileri yüksek tutmadığınız sürece ideal. Fakat hediye olarak gönderileceği söylenen 50 adet fotoğraf kağıdı paketin içerisinde çıkmadı. 500 tl fazla verip bu özelliği için almıştım. Hediye ettiğim içinde iade süreciyle uğraşmak istemedim.

pictures not so colorful

Alles Super. Danke

Value for money product.

Pour reprendre certains commentaires, oui, la qualité laisse à désirer, mais c'est un 5 mega pixels, alors qu'on est habitué à bien plis avec nos smartphones... malgré ça, je trouve la qualité bien suffisante pour le prix. Petit conseil, rester bien en place quelques secondes après le bip de prise de vue, histoire de ne pas avoir une photo floue 😉
