Video Description

Apologies for the rough video, but I was NOT expecting Polaroid to release a new camera quite so soon! Timing was terrible, as I am incredibly busy over the next few days, so I rushed this video together in about an hour. In the video I discuss my thoughts on the new Polaroid Flip, and dive into elements of its design such as the battery. Like what I do? Find this video helpful or entertaining? Feel free to buy me a beer (or two!): https://ko-fi.com/theinstantcameraguy *Getting artifacts in the video? For best quality, manually select 1080p quality, as depending on your bandwidth, YouTube may default to 720p - and YouTube's 720p compression looks like garbage* ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Want more i-Type content?
