Impossible I-1 Instant Film Camera Now In Stock

May 26, 2016 By Eric Reagan

Impossible Project I-1

The Impossible I-1 is the first new 600-type instant film camera released in many years and is now shipping at B&H Photo.

The I-1 accepts the old Polaroid 600-type instant film (now made by Impossible Project), along with the new I-Type film from Impossible project.

The notable advances in the Impossible I-1 include iOS and WatchOS compatibility, an 82-109mm lens, a 5-zone AF system, a built-in ring flash and the inclusion of a rechargeable battery. Having its own battery means that the new I-Type film, which is made for this camera, doesn’t have to include its own battery pack. This seems to shave a couple bucks off the cost of a pack of film.

The I-1 instant camera retails for $299. Check it out here at B&H Photo.

Impossible Project I-1

Impossible Project just announced its very first camera, the I-1, which uses Polaroid 600 film.

The I-1 steps up the capabilities of what we’re accustomed to having in instant film cameras like those older Polaroids and even the current Fujifilm Instax cameras. It can be controlled by a smart device over Bluetooth connection to adjust aperture, shutter speed and flash settings. It can also be triggered remotely from the app. Notably, the I-1 includes a built-in ring flash and autofocus. [Read more…]

Impossible Project is Trying to Save Fujifilm Packfilm

March 19, 2016 By Eric Reagan

Fujifilm FP-100C is Discontinued

I am still super bummed about Fujifilm’s decision to stop production of FP-100C packfilm. It’s the last peel-apart instant film on the market. Once it is gone, an entire category of instant film cameras become obsolete. However, The Impossible Project, which saved Polaroid 600 instant film, is trying to save peel-apart packfilm as well.

The design is rather straightforward.  Pull up an image on your iPhone.  Place the iPhone face down on the Impossible Instant Lab and press the shutter button on the Instant Lab.  Then, your print ejects from the Instant Lab.
