Gadgets Go Retro! With new technological advances happening every day, it is not surprising that we sometimes crave for simpler times. This month we bring you two polaroid cameras that can help you create memories in sepia tones, and in the process give you a fun gadget to play around with.

Fujifilm Instax Mini 8 Camera If you are looking to break away from the digital web to create pictures that remind you of the times gone by, the Fujifilm Instax is a fun option. It is also in fact one of the most popular options. This easy to use camera automatically adjusts itself to the light. A short battery life and expensive film however may be the two things that may keep you from buying it. Image Courtesy: www.bigcommerce.com

Impossible Project I-1 Instant Retro Camera

Analog

Impossible Retro I-1 Analog Camera is not without modern adaptations. It may look like a simple point and shoot analog camera, but actually comes with a phone app, that when connected via Bluetooth allows you to play with various modes like multiple exposure, slow shooting, manual control, etc.

While the pictures are not excellent quality and the battery life is poor, this analog camera still makes for an excellent toy for anyone who loves experimenting with manual settings.
