Our take on the Polaroid Now+ Generation 3 Instant Camera

The Polaroid Now+ Generation 3 is an instant camera that shoots 600-format film, with 8 exposures per pack, a two-lens autofocus system and a 40mm-equivalent standard lens. It adds double-exposure modes, a 9-second self-timer and EV compensation, and it charges over USB from a lithium-ion battery rated for up to 15 film packs. The body is made with 40% recycled materials. At $83.99 at eBay as of November 6, 2026, the best new price sits well below what this camera typically sells for, making it a strong entry point into instant film.
