Pokmon and Polaroid just launched limited-edition cameras, and we need one immediately
Pokémon just launched limited-edition Polaroid cameras, including Pikachu, Sylveon and Poké Ball designs.At the time of publishing, the cameras are out of stock at Polaroid and Pokémon Center, but are available for purchase at Best Buy.Ten years ago, you might have found me roaming around Washington Square Park with my brother, chasing Pokémon when the Pokémon Go app first came out.
Around that same time, I was carrying around the Polaroid camera I got in middle school, the beginning of what would become a longtime interest in film photography.If you had told me then that those interests would morph into a collaboration, I would have thought it’d be harder to catch than Mew).Fortunately, today fans of the brand can catch this collab if they’re fast.
In honor of Pokémon’s 30th anniversary, Polaroid and The Pokémon Company have teamed up on a limited-edition collection of instant cameras, film and accessories that combines two very different kinds of nostalgia.The nine-piece collection, which Polaroid is calling its biggest collaboration to date, includes a Poké Ball-inspired Polaroid Now Generation 3 and Pikachu and Sylveon versions of the smaller Polaroid Go Generation 3.As someone who still shoots film and is a huge anime fan, this is one collaboration I was especially excited to see.
And these aren’t just collectible cameras with Pokémon designs slapped on them.The Now Gen 3 has an upgraded two-lens autofocus system and improvements to its light meter and ranging sensor, while the compact Go Gen 3 has a built-in selfie mirror, self-timer and double-exposure mode.
