The Most Hyped Photo Printer Of 2023! Canon SELPHY

[@mattbibbings]

I had family photo albums to look through as a kid. Nobody will ever say "Lets have a look through the old cloud storage" in 20 years time. I bought a selphy. I print my family pictures. They go on the wall and then into a photo album for my kids to look through when they grow up. Thanks Canon.

[@russellscott7733]

Yeah I did too and that’s a great point! Thanks for watching and commenting!!

[@shackdackpack]

Are you satisfied with the quality of the prints from this device?

[@P-dawg21]

I was debating on weather to keep mine or return it.. you just made the vision more clear. Buying some photo albums and frames.. thank you 🤙🏽

[@haroldfarthington7492]

I have my photos on hard drives and a photo album. “Let’s have a look through the old hard drive more like :p

[@LORDVADER357]

Actually nobody will cycle through printed pictures 🖼️. After 20 years they will see Facebook.😅

[@adam-brockway]

I had a similar epiphany earlier this year when I started journaling. I started by using an older version of the Selphy (newer one looks way faster and hopefully has better color). I enjoyed doing it so much I eventually took my old photobooth printer out of storage and now it sits under my desk kicking out 5x7s whenever I see an image I like. It's made me a much happier artist. It's way more satisfying seeing a physical print vs something that lives on a screen.

[@russellscott7733]

That’s awesome and a great point! It’s just a different experience seeing the physical version! Thanks for watching and commenting!!

[@dangrecu8057]

Have somebody use canon selphy with a batery? How many images is posibile to print with a full batery?

[@watchandjewelryloft4713]

I came here after looking for a small photo printer solution. Then looked on Amazon. A review was ecstatic over it. So I came to KZbin and see what's up. How did I miss this launching. You are so right. Digital and social media has really killed the old school "feeling" of images/photography. I may have to get one of these. I'm betting family and friends will start asking for prints too. I'm always the "photographer" at any event.

[@peterk3697]

Did you buy it? Saw that the quality can be poor

[@watchandjewelryloft4713]

@@peterk3697 I have not. Still looking at them though.

[@elixier33]

It is poor. I sent it back ​@@peterk3697

Are you sure? I think the quality is good enought, I'm waiting my own selphy cp1500 ​@@peterk3697

[@paulreed2526]

Stumbled across your video while looking up reviews. Down to earth and straight to the point. Buying it for my wife for Christmas. Using your link. We have to start using people like yourself instead of people just putting out content for click and money

[@russellscott7733]

Thanks brother that means a lot! I really appreciate it! She’s gonna love it!

[@prashantsasidharan8072]

Purchased it a month back. It was one the best purchase decision. It’s really worth the money, I had photos from last 15 hrs all stored in a drive which we never get time to see or filter. On weekends we find time to slowly create a proper photo album.

[@bigchimpin4215]

Nice inexpensive piece of kit. Perfect for casual shooting and family pictures. 10/10 would recommend. Getting lost in specs and gear has screwed up photography and really complicated the workflow. This little printer really cuts the BS that photographers enable and gives you everything you need for 4x6 printing.

[@henry2941]

When printing with borders? Does yours also print closer to one edge than the other? I paused and zoomed and I can barely tell. But mine does this and it’s a TINY bit annoying. But I still love it.

[@tomfu6210]

It does and for me it is a nice analogue touch. This is what it was when it was enlarged and developed by hand.

[@markmcknight6587]

botos binted?

[@KelvinSchwartzGrunlicht]

Stumbled into a still working CP500 by chance in a package deal. Same 10x15 tray and cartridges as sold and used today. Same user exp story, rather amazed by how great it is to have within reach. Had no idea such products even existed. Will surely inspire more print lab orders as well in larger sizes. Also inspired me to try some sort of street or market photo booth service, setting up a laptop or even just USB pictbridge straight from camera into selphy.

[@jondodd1869]

So many memories lost to the picture folders on our PC

[@cielaczek81]

Hi. I need help wiith this printer. I print some photos from sd card and and use setings on Lcd. The preview of photo is already cropped vertically and it is fine because photo is 4:3 ratio and ratio of selphy printing is 3:2. But i wanted to be cropped more below than above not in center so i chose cropping option but max crop frame enlargmemt doesnt cover frame horizontally. I cant cropp it only vertically. Waht is going on?

[@gsf444tt]

I tried one the other day and ended up returning it, as it does not do "full" 4x6" photos. It has a oddity format called Japan Hagaki Postcard and comes out to 3.94x5.83". Although this may not sound like much it crops all the 2x3 images you have at the edges.

[@liamleech4748]

good way to physically sell photos at events. Thats what im going to try out

[@paul-beinetti]

How did it go?? I've been giving it a go, super fun

[@eugeniobritofotografia]

Been there... Too slow for use in events... You should see the professional dye-sub printers from Mitsubishi or Citizen.

[@bigchimpin4215]

@@eugeniobritofotografiaagreed

[@JadenFlagg]

That’s what I was trying to do. I hope it’s what I hope for lol.

[@wingcreator]

You need a DNP, Mitsubishi, Fujifilm or Citizen 4x6 / 8x10 dye-sub printers as these bump out print at around 8-10 + (a bit longer for larger 6" / 8" print) sec a print. How do I know? I used to print for event photographers. Selphy CP is fine for family and field uses that do not need to rush and no huge volumes on demand. I had not used a Selphy for a long time but only for the CP 1500 last week for some field works (non rush jobs).

[@alexandergonzalez9521]

Does the printer and prints still hold up looking to give as a gift but read some reviews that the color distorts depending on conditions?

[@RobVI]

how many photos do you get before you have to add ink?

[@Xavierthedetailer]

I’m gonna start doing this so my clients with the nicer cars have a personal picture of there car after the detail😁

[@sedatresad8221]

Great idea!

[@hectorcesar67]

I have same printer model with canon brand paper but Im getting uneven margins once its printed, preview show it right, any clue what my issue is? anyone?

[@number17m]

I changed 3 printers like this, and they all had the same issue: on all prints a faint vertical line appears in the same place...Verry wierd...I had to return it. Do you have the same problem?

[@rebours]

No

[@a.k2156]

Apparently its a common issue with these. There is a whole reddit page dedicated

[@thegoodthingz]

Is there an option for bigger paper?

[@amierulfiqri4025]

anyone has specific setting to make the color more accurate with the digital version? mine turns darker than the original one sometimes even the brighteness is set at +1.

[@nawzadsulaiman1588]

I have problem when I print photo some times show message, communication error, check printer power and printer connection

[@Zee140.15]

I love the review dude! Does this printer print photos via air print or do you need ink cartridges?

[@hunterbergman9048]

Can these connect to a camera camera? Or if I have a new enough camera I can send the pics to my phone over Bluetooth and then print them? Im really wanting to explore a little project of getting portrait shots and handing it to them on the spot

[@kingfarouk9755]

Cool!! How many photos do you usually get to print out before it’s time to buy more ink?

[@bigchimpin4215]

This printer uses ribbon cartridges rather than toner or ink. The ribbons have exactly enough surface area to print on the paper that that is sold with the ribbon. Each ribbon cartridge is sold with 36 pieces of glossy photo paper approx 4x6. The paper is sticky and I recommend attaching your pictures to some kind of card stock or paper for longevity. Out of the box, with the selphy, you get enough material for exactly 5 prints.

[@guybrush291]

Great! But will this work with the Apple iPod? I’m referring to AirPlay and air print.

[@Joshwaa_s]

I have wanted to be able to print more than what I shoot on just film ( I always get prints sent) and being able to gift and keep photos on the fly like that is great for the price - the way it prints looks almost photographable all by itself good find - thank you also while this wasn't mean to be algorithm friendly - it was on my recommended

[@russellscott7733]

It’s a great little printer! Thanks for watching and commenting!!

[@lawrieyoutube4375]

Nice vid, thanks. Thinking of getting one for my wife who likes doing the family pics thing. I'm tossing up between the CP1500 (which I think I prefer) and the SELPHY Square QX10 for ease of use. She hates wrestling the tech. Both use dye-sub which is superior to Zink. The QX10 looks like instant fun but the size etc is restricted. I think the QX10 is more expensive for consumables. The canon Ivy2 (Zink) is so popular with 'the girls' that I can't even get one in Australia at the moment. More useful v quick and fun. I'm torn, any thoughts? By the way- How do you find the extra coating on the CP1500 prints ? Does it make them easier to handle? Just for info- A CP1500 with an extra pack of consumables plus a pack of sticky paper is closing in on A$300. Ouch.

[@marysegagnon6638]

hello thank you, if we want to do collage before p4rinting waht application to take with a pc not a phone

[@DavidWatkinsGam]

What’s the likely lifespan of these pics ? Year? 10 years? 30 years ?

[@polygoncoco]

canon themselves say 100 years

[@aztattookid13]

I just got mine today and got it setup. It tells me I don't have the right size paper when I try and print the full 4x6 size (or Large) from the app. I just used the paper and cartridge that it came with, so I don't quite understand. Did you have this issue? Trying to print from mobile app.

[@bronzespace]

Does this require wifi to print photos, or am I able to connect a wire from that to the camera to print the picture from there

[@PrashanthAkunuri]

My model uses Bluetooth.

[@LORDVADER357]

Does this printer 🖨️ have usb charging? Probably not.

[@Xavierthedetailer]

Can you use your phone?

[@vito3608]

"This video is not optimized for the youtube algorithm" Hell yeah dude. Watched the whole thing. Quick question, do you know if the battery for the CP1300 is the same one for the CP1500? I'm trying to find answers everywhere but I can't find any. Cheers!

[@petersmith9470]

Yes it fits, but you can get a none canon battery for half the price on Amazon but the charger doesn't come with a power lead as you can charge it using the printer, I don't like to charge mine thru the printer so just bought a mains adapter and just charge it off the machine.

[@naveedsiddiqi5735]

Hey dude, I am really considering this device. Can it be powered via powerbank to make it truly portable?

[@petersmith9470]

Battery powered for portability, fits in the back of the printer. A generic battery is available cheaper than the Canon, charger doesn't come with a mains lead as you can charge it thru the printer but I prefer to charge mine thru a separate charger which I just bought an adaptor compatible mains lead to fit

[@afonsomiguelcorreia]

Can you print without borders?

Yellow, magenta and Cyan, not blue. I don't know what you are doing but my inkjet prints are super high quality. The Sephy only goes to 300 dpi.

[@NoHope-WhatSoEver]

Best thing about this is you don't need a App to run it.

Don't print matte finish, they look like crap with this machine.

[@bwellington3001]

really do not see the appeal.. you said it yourself - you can print a photo in the lab. I can do 10x15 cm for like 0.5 bucks per picture and i dont have to buy the printer and cartridges. It will take a long time before this will pays off, provided that it's not just gonna break down
