[@robertsanchez4843]

Thanks so much for taking the time to make this video man! Very simple and very helpful 🤙🏽

[@JustAnotherChris]

Glad you found it helpful!!

[@CREATIVEreviews]

Thanks for this. I’m picking up mine later today and can’t wait to try it out. I don’t want to waste any pics

[@JustAnotherChris]

That’s awesome

[@MoMo-li3zn]

I LOVE mine, too! I also love your videos, as I've gotten into Polaroid, you've been the best help!

[@michaelchuney401]

Thank you! As always, great content : )

[@JustAnotherChris]

No thank you!

[@immybez]

if you have edited on your camera do you bother editing in the app? I want to get them as close to the og picture as possible (im aware i cant make it exact) how can i do this??

[@lunaartemis5511]

Even though im turning the exposure fully up they are still coning out dark. They are evening moody black and white images. I type. Phone brightness up on setting followed.

[@emilianoperez34]

If you have a screen protector make sure it’s done in a dark room.

Hey, how does it actually look if you use the lab to make a b&w photo but use color film instead to print? Does it have the same quality? Or better? Is it lacking contrast or have a tint?

[@57Stratmann]

I think the lab is cool, but don’t own one, yet. I’m a bit of a purist when it comes to Polaroid photography and have wished I had a camera with me a million times when I see some amazing cloud scapes or what have you. So, this could be the solution when I take shots with my phone when one of my cameras isn’t handy. And I’m sure the editing features you mentioned would create excellent results when translated to analog with the lab. Thanks for those tips !!! Great video as usual…..

[@JustAnotherChris]

Nothing wrong with being a purist but nothing wrong having extra tools to be creative

[@Nick-ul2bp]

I was a bit of a purist myself too, but I started to incorporate this into my polaroid flow a good while back(and the impossible project version too) and it's really great for those use cases you mention. I often use it to print phone photos where I wouldn't have typically had a polaroid camera with me(maybe out in the rain for instance). It's also an incredible tool to have if you like emulsion lifts. Doing an emulsion lift on a 1/1 photo is sometimes a bit touch and go, but this machine has been great for doing lifts. I know I'm commenting on an old comment, but I think the lab is way underrated.

Best pic quality portable small photo 4x6 printer? How is rhe HITI P322W ?

[@techmore3472]

[@inpictured]

Hi! Does anyone know how to fix shutter? Everything works except shutter curtain that is not opening 😕

[@JustAnotherChris]

reach out to Polaroid

[@mohammadshahzaib4747]

Hi, Chris I have one600 classic camera and when I load the film cartage in camera the light don't stop blinking. So could you please help me what is the issue.

[@michaelhans4551]

I honestly much prefer the Instax sp-2, sp-3, and link-wide. You can use a printer profile in photoshop (make an action so it takes 5 seconds) which works so well that it's too clean and doesn't look like instant film or just straight from the phone for a little more of a messy look. The Polaroid Lab is neat but feels so archaic in comparison, I guess your phone screen technically is higher res but takes so much trial and error, and what comes out of the Instax recorders always looks better.

[@ke2277]

Hi, is there any printers that can print a Polaroid sized picture by Bluetooth? I have searched everywhere but they all print a smaller picture and don’t really look like a polaroid. Is this product the only one that can print a true polaroid? I want a Bluetooth polaroid printer but can’t seem to find one.

[@JustAnotherChris]

Yes this is the only one

[@sinxut]

An Instax Square Link. Uses Fujifilm square film and looks cleaner/sharper from what I saw online.

[@xandersitu]

​@@sinxut Instax Square film seems to be slightly smaller than the Polaroid film. Just a heads up :)

[@parrotheadfelt]

Thank's Chris I'm getting it i'll use your link

[@JustAnotherChris]

Fantastic!

[@WJSceattaLWNS]

Hey Chris, the Lab does not work with iPhone 15 Pro … any tips how to get it working

[@JustAnotherChris]

Considering that phone is brand new I would assume polaroid hasn’t updated the app for it yet. So maybe just give it some time

[@michaelbell75]

Any updates on this? Thinking about getting one but I have a 15 Pro Max

[@polaroidbarber]

Polaroid lab is so underestimated do you ever use the ar ?

[@JustAnotherChris]

It really is!

[@merryporti]

omg thank you for this! I just got it and I’ve wasted lots lots of film

[@JustAnotherChris]

Glad it was helpful!!

[@robbonavco1610]

I'm using a Polaroid lab. At the very bottom edge of the image, the last 2 millimetres, it keeps double exposing so there is slither of double image. Nothing I try is curing this. Polaroid have proved useless and have nothing relevant to say.. In put welcome?

[@cyanidemishka781]

I have the same issue... Anyone got any advise?

[@robbonavco1610]

@@cyanidemishka781 I never cured the problem. In fact, Polaroid suggested it was normal.. Like all things Polaroid, everything is unpredictable. I find 1 in 10 is good for use. Expensive, but when they're good.. If you find a cure, let us know.

[@VitVids]

iPhone brightness doesn’t matter, Polaroid app overrides your brightness when you put the phone down. You can emulate it and see for yourself.

[@killvminati7489]

love the shirt lmao

[@JustAnotherChris]

Why thank you!!
