Polaroid Z350 Instant Digital Camera Goes On Sale
Fans of Polaroid cameras have a new reason to celebrate today after the company officially began selling the Polaroid Z340 Instant Digital Camera which marries the convenience of instant polaroid pictures with a 14 megapixel digital camera.
The new offering uses a ZINK printer to offer on the fly digital 3×4? prints and the system provides the ability to customize photos between snaps with sharing capabilities.
According to Polaroid President Scott W. Hardy:
“Polaroid photos connect people together in a way that is more personal than any photo tag, slideshow or comment box, yet digital images shape our stories.” Scott adds, “The Z340 brings these two worlds together in harmony by merging the excitement of the instant printing experience with the ease of digital photography and sharing. We’re very excited to share the wonders of instant photography with a new generation.”
Using the ZINK second-generation printer Polaroid is also promising smudge-proof, water-resistant coating.
The Polaroid Z340 is capable of printing 25 photos with 75 captures using a rechargeable lithium-ion battery while providing picture takers with a 2.7? LCD screen that makes photo printing easy?
The camera also offers an on-board SD card for extra image storage.
The Polaroid Z340 is available for $299.99 from the likes of Polaroid.com, B&H, Adorama and Amazon.com. For instant prints users will pay $19.99 MSRP for 30 sheets of Polaroid ZINK 3×4? paper.
