We've been familiar to Polaroid cameras wherein it can create photo printouts without the need for inks. Unlike the traditional way, instead of developing the film through the use of dye couplers, instant cameras contain all the necessary chemicals for the development process, all arranged on a single plastic sheet. It's fun to easily create printouts of photos and images in just a snap, that's the reason why Polaroid cameras became popular.
Now, instead of using bulky devices like Polaroid cameras, we can now use our high megapixel cameras phones such as smartphones, iPhone, Android phones, and digital cameras that features wireless connectivity feature.
