I imagine the amazing improvements to the features and image quality of cell phone cameras have done away with a big chunk of the snapshot camera market. When we move to Washington, I found our old Canon camera that was really a great little camera at the time we bought it. I took a few pictures with it and then put it away. The image quality and easy of use of my Note 4 was way better. That has been multiplied even more with the Pixel 2 phones Lorena and I purchased a few months back. So, it was a little bit of a surprise when Kelly told me she wanted to get a “Polaroid” camera that takes pictures that print immediately onto a 2.4″ x 1.8″ snapshot paper. Talk about retro. The funny deal is I remember when the first instant Polaroid cameras were the new-new thing and very expensive. I guess it is all kinds of fun for the right kind of people at the right kind of party. We will see.
