    Thanks for the great content! I got the Kodak Mini series knowing that the photos are 30 cents per photo, compared to my other Instax camera that costs $1 per photo.

      Yes, the cost per image is a huge selling point.

    Hi! I'd love it if you could do a comparison and review of the most recent polaroid cameras - including the fuji film instax mini and square, the polaroid go, and others. And I'd also love a comparison of mini portable printers - like Cannon ivy, this kodak retro, and the intax mini printer. Also on amazon, I've seen loads of terrible reviews for this kodak printer, which is so confusing because the review photos indeed look terrible. But can it be that bad? Thankyou ! x

    I have this thing for a little over a year now. When it works it's really great, unfortunately cartridges jam often making them unusable. When I look back at the number of cartridges wasted I would not recommend this printer. My printer was replaced with a new one which didn't change a thing. In the end prints are much more expensive! Also mine ended working just 1 month after warranty expired.

    Great review. I was going to go with the Canon Selphy but the photos that come out of of it are way too small. Kodak has a lot of experience with Dye-sub printers. About 2001-2005 they use to sell a Dye-sub that could print up tot 8X10 and was exremely popular. Unfortunately, like many Kodak products it went extinct.

    • @Gemini_Connect

      These photos are smaller than the Canon Selphy (I have that printer too for when I want to make bigger prints).

    • @mermaidofdreams
      @mermaidofdreams Год назад +1

      Stick to canon seply very little goes wrong with it and reliable. The Kodak retro 3 has printing issues “failed pick up paper or cartridge failure”. You will have lots of cartridges going to waste, now it sits there gathering dust.
