The I-1 is a instant camera made by Impossible and released in Spring 2016.
The camera can uses two types of film, the I-type that don't contain a battery as well as classic Polaroids 600 type instant integral films with a battery. The base of the camera is the film compartment which is similar to the unit from Impossible's instant film printer the Instant Lab. The body of the camera is a unusual pyramid shape, while the front has a large ring flash. The flash has a total of twelve LEDs with four of them being used for close up. The lens uses a IR based five zone auto focus system. There are three main focusing ranges 1-2.2m, 2.2-4.5 and 4.5-inf. A close-up mode of 0.5-1m and a macro mode of 0.3-0.5m is also available. Instead of moving the whole lens or separate elements back and forth, the camera utilises a revolving type focusing with several lenses on a cogged wheel behind the front lens. The camera is powered by a 500 mAh lithium-ion rechargeable battery which uses a micro USB to charge.
While the camera is a fully automatic exposure design, it can also connect via Bluetooth to a Apple iPhone iOS mobile in order to enable more advanced control functions. These functions include, remote trigger, noise trigger, self-timer with options of a 5, 10 or 20 second delay, double exposure, light painting, color paint, and scanning. There is a manual mode with additional controls for flash (medium, strong, soft and off), focus, aperture and shutter speeds. There is a under and over exposure display that takes the measurements from the cameras light meter. A three segment battery level meter, and exposure counter. The app also has logs of each photo taken with details such as date, aperture, shutter, EV, flash and focal length.
