Summary: very good
Comment: i first bought this as a present for a friend of mine. After i took a few pictures with it,i was honestly very impressed! The picture quality was very good, not great.
The camera was slightly big and in a little bit of an odd shape to hold, but i didnt mind that too much.
Id recommend this camera, but not if your looking for excellent picture quality. Its still a fun camera and really convientant how you dont need to have it developed!

Summary: Beautiful Pictures
Comment: I'm a Great Grandmother who finds this camera very easy to use. Big improvement over the first Poloroid instant camera which I owned. When I bought this Sprecta 1200si there was a camera case on the same page which I also bought. However, it didn't fit this camera! I would like to know where I can buy one!

Summary: Superb Photos
Comment: The Polaroid Spectra 1200si, using the bright Spectra film, produces superb photos in almost any circumstance. The camera focuses automatically, beeping if you are too close to your subject, and adjusts to various lighting conditions. The timer feature is simple to use, giving off a very helpful insistent beeping as the picture is about to be taken - rather than taking a photo of you telling your family the camera's about to take a picture, it takes a photo of everyone paying attention to the beeping Spectra.
If all of this beeping is too much to bear, you can set the camera to a silent mode.
I use a variety of Polaroid and Minolta APS cameras for art and family photos. When I need a reliably good picture right away, I reach for the Spectra and am rarely disappointed. Polaroid, by the way, is an extremely responsive company with great technical assistance and customer service.

Summary: The Best of a Dying Breed
Comment: The era of Polaroid Photography seems to be nearing an end. With one-hour developing for conventional fold available right around the corner from most people, and the amazing advances in digital photography, it would seem that there's very little need for Polaroid's expensive system. And yet the cameras hand on, and with good reason. Even the most automated of the digital systems still require you to connect your camera to a printer, while Polaroids just pop out beautiful photos as quickly as you can press the button.
I own a sack full of Nikons, a couple of digital cameras and a few point-and-shoot 35s, and yet I still find myself reaching occasionally for the Spectra. There are times when you need the ability to quickly produce an archival-quality color snapshot that digital or standard photography can't deliver. Selling something by mail? Take a snap and pop it in an envelope. Building or remodeling a house? Take snaps of the plumbing and wiring before you seal up a wall, and put them in an album. I did this in my home remodeling, and it was a lifesaver when I had to go back and drill into walls a week later. When it came time to install towel racks in the bath, there was no question as to where the studs were.
Sure, you can do a lot of those things with other camera, but nothing else gives you that immediate feedback AND and immediate archival copy. Shot not right? Do it again. No doubt in a few years we'll have digital systems that can pop out archival-quality hard copies right from the camera, but until then the Spectra is still the only choice.
