Polaroid OneStep Closeup
The close-up lens lets you focus on subjects as close as two feet, a unique feature for a vintage instant camera using classic 600 film. Its foldable design collapses into a compact shape for travel, and each unit is hand-refurbished to ensure reliable operation. This camera is best for casual photographers wanting tangible, retro-styled prints with a dedicated macro capability.
