Advantages: cheap Disadvantages: poor quality pictures, dark screen

First of all the lcd screen is impossible to look through, you can't see what you are looking at unless you are in the brightest possible light, so unless you plan to take ... ...your photos in flurescent lighting conditions you are immediatly scuppered. In my home during daylight i was not able to see my partner through the screen even though she was stood directly in front of me 10 feet away!
Okay, so let us assume you are stood on the surface of the sun and with your flurescent lightbulbs dazzling away as well and you can actually see the target through the screen .You press the capture button to take your picture ... more

Yes, dear reader it is THAT bad. Why? I hear you ask, well let me tell you... First of all the lcd screen is impossible to look through, you can't see what you are looking at unless you are in the brightest possible light, so unless you plan to take (well, attempt to take - i'll get to that later) your photos in flurescent lighting conditions you are immediatly scuppered. In my home during daylight i was not able to see my partner through the screen even though she was stood directly in front of me 10 feet away! Okay, so let us assume you are stood on the surface of the sun and with your flurescent lightbulbs dazzling away as well and you can actually see the target through the screen .You press the capture button to take your picture that you will keep lovingly for the rest of your life (which would be a short time as you are standing ON the sun!!!) what do you get? Well, if you are lucky you get a picture that looks blurry, scratchy and slightly deformed and this is on the BEST quality setting, at low quality you are lucky to see the right shape! Detailed picture? No chance. In short this camera provides pictures of such shocking quality you would think the box brownie hadn't been invented, stick with a bog standard camera PHONE - it will give better quality. AVOID.

Quick review of Polaroid A 300
Terrible experience. The images captured are way too dark unless you take the photos in the brightest possible setting..the 42.3 billion candlepower light atop the Luxor in Vegas comes to mind...
The pics were ridiculously grainy and the viewing display was also ridiculously dark, making picture taking a bit of guess work.
You get what you pay for I suppose.
Avoid this camera. ...

Advantages: compact, efficient, powerful Disadvantages: small
the dimunitive size of icons , offset by portability and (once set) point and shoot. Old 35ml chunky film camera addicts can buy considerable amounts of their beloved dinosaur technology for £300, but the swift exactness of digital pictures outweighs that, and polaroid to boot. If you need more bells and whistles look elsewhere, this is pretty basic but by my experience, a very good camera.

A wide variety of features, good picture quality, durable (millions of photographs without maintenance), Good Value, and Generally convenient in size and weight to take out with you
Poor Lens, Fragile, and generally a lot better products on the market (However, for nowhere near the same price value) (*)
