Polaroid has announced the global launch of its new instant camera, the Polaroid Mod. The camera is available starting today for $169.99 through Polaroid’s online store, with availability at other US retailers beginning October 6th.
The Polaroid Mod features a dial around the lens that allows users to switch between four creative shooting modes, each offering unique in-camera analog effects. These modes are designed to provide more experimental options for photographers.
The modes include Double Exposure, which layers two images, and Split Shot, which divides images into two halves using a rotating accessory. Light Painting uses a long exposure to capture light trails, while Motion Freeze employs a slower shutter speed and flash to combine motion trails with a sharp image of a moving subject.
The Polaroid Mod is compatible with Polaroid i-Type and 600 film stocks, available in both color and black and white. The camera is equipped with a 750mAh battery, capable of shooting up to 15 packs of film (120 exposures) on a full charge.
It utilizes a fixed focus two-lens system, featuring a 103mm standard lens and a 95mm portrait lens, which can be interchanged based on the subject.
