Good Zink paper that worked well in my camera.
By JJCEO on Reviewed in the United States on February 24, 2015
I have a Polaroid Socialmatic camera and I had run out of paper. After taking a lot of photos at Christmas and at parties I found out that when you print out a photo everyone wants the copy of their favorite pictures and you don't get to keep them. I had an upcoming birthday party to go to for my grandson and I wanted to take photos of his party to give to him so I ordered more paper. I allowed almost 3 weeks for delivery to make sure that I got the paper. After the order was placed I found out that the shipment would take 4 to 7 weeks and I was upset. I was still being optimistic that they would arrive early as I was told they shipped them on Christmas. After the birthday party date had passed I called Amazon and told them to cancel the order. The supplier told me that they were already shipped and the cancelled the invoice but told me to keep the Zink paper when it arrived. I promised a review of the papers and so here it is. This paper makes surprisingly good photos. The color is very good and the photos are clear. The camera makes these photos with Zero Ink thus the name is Zink. In my attached video I show the package, how the paper is delivered in 10 packs and how to load them into the camera. Make sure that you leave the barcode sheet on the bottom of the stack with the barcode facing down. Once loaded the camera will scan the barcode and configure the camera to make the best photos. The photos have a removable backing that allows you to stick the them on a wall, bulletin board or onto a collage board of photos. The backing is hard to get started to peel off but just take your time. In my video I show a photo that I want to print and print it out. As you can see the quality of the printed photo is very good. I like this paper a lot and the paper works well in my camera. I now see that my supplier ships the product directly from Amazon and they can ship the product and deliver it in 2 days. I compliment them for making this change. I rate the product at 5 stars as it works as specified and I feel the suppler has done a fair amount of assistance after the long delivery issue.

Instant photos are instant photos

The picture quality of the images does well enough in brighter (but not too contrasty) light. Compared to earlier Polaroid papers, the images seem a bit sharper although the paper size is smaller. Brighter light is better than dimmer light, but on a point & shoot, that's only to be expected. On value-for-money, I use the images in my journal. As a shorthand for lengthy description, the pictures worked just like I want them to: good enough. The print quality is good. One thing I didn't know until I came across it Somewhere is that the pictures are sticky-back. One reason I didn't know this is because the cover sheet on the back of the print is, um, 'not easy' to remove. I've developed a technique of bending the ugliest corner of the picture jusssst a littttle bit and rather rolling it to loosen the cover paper from the sticky-back of the print. Then I can winkle my fingernail between the two and (usually) peel it right off. Sometimes it takes a few tries as the two layers are thinny-thin-thin. Once they are separated, though, the stickum sticks 'em smack onto any paper it comes in contact with. That picture is _stuck_. For repositioning a mispositioned picture, cut the whole picture out of the page and get a glue stick.
