    Im a photography student! High key means that the lighting will be very bright, almost white. The big details will show up, but the rest will be completely light/white. :)

    the Hi-key button is to make your photos lighter, like if you think the photo is gonna turn out dark you put the hi-key on & it should turn out lighter, so if it's already really light where you're taking it don't use it!

    Fun Fact! Don't shake the photo! It's going to make the ink spread and ruin the photo, because it is inside the cover, so it's under a thin film. Just be very careful Q-Q And it's better to buy the 50 pack of film because it's 30/35$

    It doesn't print the picture it is the picture, film is a chemical that burns when light touches it, so when u release the shutter you are letting light into the lens and hitting the film, thus burning a picture. So much better than digital

    hi-key is to get brighter images when you're inside. it says in the instructions. It also recommends to not wave it around as it develops or touch the image.

    Just to let you know if you want to take selfie's on that you can order a special mirror that goes on the lens and that helps you take selfie's

    honey,the last mode is for kind of "model shoots".That means that when you take a picture of sb then it gets rid of wrinckles and make the face look smoother c: That's what Fuji guys said.You can check their profile on youtube

  • @aritin5259
    @aritin5259 9 років тому +5

    I have the instax share and I think it's a better deal than the instax mini. Instant cameras are known for their "washed" photo finish so having the ability to edit your photo to be more than the normal color will really change the outcome. Just trying to help someone out. :)

  • @itspraeploy
    @itspraeploy 10 років тому +5

    I'm obsessed with my polaroid too! I love all of my pictures. But sometimes i would say they didnt come out the way I wanted. Too dark too bright or else.
    Do more videos about this polaroid
    Share your tips on taking those pictures. I would love too watch!
    Thank you for making this

  • @gabriellerobinson2020
    @gabriellerobinson2020 9 років тому +3

    That setting is how much exposure your reviving and you have to set it on the opposite so that your picture will come out more clear.

  • @kpopismyseoul2ne1
    @kpopismyseoul2ne1 10 років тому +187

    But they're not Polaroids.... I wish people could recognize the difference. Polaroid doesn't even make film anymore (except for the 300 cameras, but no one actually buys it.) They should be referred to as "Prints" , "Fujifilms" , or the simple "Instant Pictures".

  • @spitefullymy
    @spitefullymy 10 років тому

    Well high key means a photo that is really bright, with little dark shadows. It's kind of a photographic style. One thing I might add is if you wanna digitize the pictures you took you could take it to a store in your area that does scans (walgreens or wallmart?) and you can get some nice pics you can share with friends or something.
    Anyway, great photos and great guide, thanks :)

  • @umgetoffmychannel

    the hi-key makes it a softer picture, so it didnt not come out right, it just softens the picture

    For me , i think the high key mode really dries super fast. And the skin tone is just perfect.

    the hi-key setting is just to take brighter pictures. like, the picture will come out a little white and overexposed.

  • @BoomMariaHere
    @BoomMariaHere 9 років тому +3

    do you ever have trouble getting the picture at the right angle when you want to take it? Like if you're taking a picture of your friends, but then they end up in the corner of the picture but when you were taking the picture and looked into the little eye thing it was angled perfectly, but the picture wasn't?

    When you take the photo mine are coming out really bright, peoples faces are pale? When I twist the lense to get different settings the light doesn't change from the first one, or is it not supposed to, or what setting is best to use to get a good quality photo? Just I keep wasting my photos taking them to test and they all come out pale! If you know that would be real help thanks :)

    Hello , i have some questions. I want to get the same one as you, but i dont know what to do. The other day i was at micheals and i saw them on sale for like $110 or something, and i really want to get it. BUT on ebay, theres some that are like $60+. and iven seen a couple on ebay that bring like two packages , of film included for like $120. I would get it, but im worried it doesnt turn out good. And the camera can have defects or something. I really dont know what to do, and i want one before this school year ends which for me is, June 5th. So yeah :/ oh and, also where did you get yours? & how much was it! I hope you can answer this, ASAP, thank you!!!
