Polaroid’s portable printer

Polaroid portable printerPolaroid has a new portable printer coming out that looks interesting. The Digital Instant Mobile Photo Printer (really, guys… couldn’t come up with a catchier name?) uses ZINK, or “zero ink”, technology where the dyes are embedded in the paper. At less than 3″ x 5″ and no more than an inch thick it would take up almost no space in the bag. And you can peel the backs off the prints and use them as stickers.

One use comes to mind immediately. I work with a stock agency that likes to have photos attached to model releases. Imagine being able to stick a photo of the subject onto a model release in the field. No more making notes on the release like “brown hair with blue shirt” to help me organize my paperwork and photos when I get home from a shoot.

We’ll see where the price falls — and the price of the paper — but it has potential.

And I know this has been making its way around the internet but I feel compelled to share this hilarious Photoshop tutorial titled “You Sujck at Photoshop”.
