The Amigo 620 is one of Polaroid's 600-series cameras for integral-print film. It was made for a few years, from 1982.[1] It is slightly more advanced than the OneStep 600, and the initial model is beige, not black. It has no built-in flash, but can use flashbar (it attaches to a socket in the flip-up cover). It has a plastic close-up lens that slides in front of the lens for shots closer than 4 feet.

Like other Polaroid 600 cameras, there were a variety of international variations of this model. Names included:
