Details: The Impulse has a completely different look from any other Polaroid camera, but it is just as easy to use as any other 600 type instant cameras. It's uniquely designed as a single piece construction, with a sturdy body, rubber binocular grips and a pop-up flash. This camera is great for beginners who want something reliable and hard-wearing with its own unique style.
Designed for Polaroid's 600-series integral film, the Impulse models are similar in body design to the OneStep or Pronto! models released for SX-70 film in that they feature a non-folding plastic body, single-element plastic lens and fixed focus.
The basic Impulse model as shown here is usually found in a dark gray color. The body is a hard-wearing plastic and features rubber grips around the rear and flash-ready light. The flash is raised by pressing down onto the top of the unit; this also turns the camera on and retracts the lens cover.
Specifications:
- Single-element 116mm f/9 plastic lens
- Fixed focus
- Electronic shutter: range of about 1/4 - 1/200 sec
- Built-in electronic flash
- Rigid plastic body with some vinyl covering
- Automatic flash exposures for all pictures (flash always fires)
The Polaroid Impulse is an excellent 600 type camera. If you're looking to use 600 type films, and can't afford a Polaroid SLR, this is one of the best cameras out there for the photography enthusiasts. The Polaroid Impulse is fairly simplistic and relatively easy to use. It has a phenomenal viewfinder in comparison to viewfinders found on other Polaroid 600 cameras. Since it is a 600 model camera, it works with expired Polaroid 600 film, as well as the Impossible Project's PX 600 Silver Shade and PX 680 Color Shade lines of film.
