fin dal primo modello è rimasta impressa nella mente di tutti come l’unica fotocamera in grado di scattare e stampare subito, amata dai set cinematografici e da Ladi Gaga, ora torna in versione digitale, disponibile all’acquisto.
Si è sempre vista nei film, ma si vedrà ancora? almeno il nuovo modello?
Polaroid Z340, cosi si chiama, un sensore da 14 Megapixel e stampante istantanea integrata. il prezzo è di circa 300 dollari.
La z340, come i suoi antenati, è in grado di “buttar fuori” una fotografia, subito dopo esser stata scattata, si tratta di un tempo inferiore al minuto, circa 40 secondi, e ha un serbatoio che gli consente 24 scatti consecutivi.
finiti questi, con la stessa carica, avremo comunque ancora energia per finire quasi altre due ricariche, infatti l’autonomia totale è di 70 scatti, le fotografie saranno stampate con la tecnologia ZINK, e quindi sia il contrasto che le tonalità non dovrebbero essere eccelse, la loro qualità si è vista con la microstampante della stessa casa soprannominata POGO.
a seguito trovate il video in cui si vede il meccanismo della stampante, identico a quello inserito nella z340 in funzione, stampare una foto in meno di 30 secondi, i 40 secondi ipotizzati si riferivano alla visualizzazione della foto sul display, e inizio stampa.
Naturalmente sarà anche possibile utilizzare la macchina per stampare una qualunque immagine semplicemente inserendola nella SD, supportata dalla fotocamera.
a seguito il comunicato stampa, la fotocamerà è disponibile all’acquisto su numerosi store on-line come AMAZON o nei rivenditori polaroid.
OLAROID ANNOUNCES THE Z340 INSTANT DIGITAL CAMERA Available Today, The New Polaroid Z340 Instant Digital Camera Reinvents Instant Photography for the Digital Age, Marrying the Flexibility and Convenience of a Digital Camera with the Classic Polaroid Instant Experience
MINNEAPOLIS, MN, November 8, 2011 – Today Polaroid announced the Z340 Instant Digital Camera, the next step in the evolution of the famed instant camera. Featuring a full-function 14.0 megapixel digital camera and integrated ZINK® printer, the Polaroid Z340 camera delivers a new twist on the instant experience. The Polaroid Z340 camera allows users to customize each individual photo between snap and share – making the newest product from the Polaroid family a digital photo booth that turns your images into a new social currency in less than one minute.
Since the launch of the Polaroid Land Camera in 1948, the first instant camera, people around the world have enjoyed the magic of Polaroid instant photography. The Polaroid Z340 camera delivers the same instant experience that is synonymous with the Polaroid brand: a simple, quick and easy way to capture, print, share and create with snapshots from our lives.
Unlike any other camera available today, the Polaroid Z340 pays homage to its analog predecessors, yet contains an advanced, easy-to-use digital feature set. Designed for portability, the Z340 combines a 14.0 megapixel digital camera with a ZINK-enabled printer using the ink-free Zero Ink Printing Technology from ZINK Imaging to deliver a 3×4” print – the same size as the classic Polaroid photos that captured millions of special memories over the past 63 years. The Polaroid Z340 camera gives you even more options for instant printing: choose the iconic Polaroid Classic Border Logo or full bleed and contemporary 3×4” photos.
“Polaroid photos connect people together in a way that is more personal than any photo tag, slideshow or comment box, yet digital images shape our stories,” said Scott W. Hardy, President, Polaroid. “The Z340 brings these two worlds together in harmony by merging the excitement of the instant printing experience with the ease of digital photography and sharing. We’re very excited to share the wonders of instant photography with a new generation.”
Designed to be both a digital and instant camera, the Z340 is a part of the Polaroid experience that injects more life, meaning and features into your photos than any other imaging device:
Fuses the digital and analog worlds: Featuring a 14.0 megapixel digital camera and integrated ZINK printer, the Z340 camera produces vibrant photos with the patented ZINK Paper®, an advanced composite material with cyan, yellow, and magenta dye crystals embedded inside. Before printing, the embedded dye crystals are clear, so the ZINK Paper looks like regular white photo paper. The Z340 uses heat to activate and colorize these crystals.
Superb Print Quality: The Polaroid Z340 camera uses ZINK Imaging’s second generation of the ZINK Technology, delivering vibrant and highly saturated prints. ZINK prints emerge fully developed and protected by a smudge-proof, water-resistant coating.
Made to be mobile: Designed for old and new fans of Polaroid, the Z340 camera’s one pound, seven ounce, simple and intuitive features make instant printing and digital photography effortless with its rechargeable lithium-ion battery that prints up to 25 photos and 75 captures.
Snap, view, share and store: Simply snap, check out images on the Z340 camera’s 2.7” LCD screen and choose photos for printing – just like that, favorite images are instantly shared, no connections required. Just like a regular digital camera your images can be automatically saved to the on-board SD card. Various settings allow you to automatically print every picture or be more selective and wait for that right picture so there are no more wasted prints.Get creative: No need to phone a friend to ask for help with computer upload and editing tricks – on-board editing features allow review and cropping prior to printing. Unique border options give your photos even more of a voice. You can even upload your own custom borders to the camera.
Aesthetically Pleasing and Environmentally Responsible: Reminiscent of Polaroid cameras of the past, the Polaroid Z340 camera is clearly a significant departure from a typical camera. Designed for both form and function, photo printing is now as portable as photo taking: ZINK Technology does not require messy ribbons, toner or inkjet cartridges.
The Polaroid Z340 camera is available starting today (US, $299.99 MSRP) at Polaroid.com, B&H, Adorama and Amazon.com. Thirty sheets of Polaroid ZINK 3×4” Paper (US, $19.99 MSRP) is also available at the retailers listed above.
