The Spectra 1200i relies on a fully
automatic, 125-millimeter, three-element lens with 10-zone Quintic that
provides a focal distance from two feet to infinity. (An optional close-up
accessory that's sold separately reduces the focal distance to 10 inches.)
With an aperture of f10 to f45, and a shutter speed range of 1/245 to 2.8
seconds, the Spectra 1200i is versatile enough to meet a wide array of
your photographic needs.
Polaroid has made its reputation over the
years by providing photographers with fun, well-built cameras with
user-friendly designs, and this camera certainly extends that reputation.
Display features such as a frame indicator shows how many pictures are
left in the film pack, an easy-to-read control panel, and a lighten/darken
exposure control mean that you will always be prepared for your next shot.
The camera also includes a tripod socket,
adjustable hand strap, and a next strap connector. At 6.82 x 3.07 x 5.46
inches (W x H x D), the Spectra 1200i is compact enough to join you on
your travels. Powered by the battery included with the film packs, the
Spectra 1200i works with Polaroid Spectra, 1200, Image, and 990 films.

would give it a 5...

Excellent all-purpose camera., December 27, 2001
Reviewer: A customer
It kills me that Polaroid is doing so poorly these days. I've got several
old Polaroid cameras, and they've stopped making film for them. I just
bought this new one very recently, and it takes great pictures, end of
story.
To say "the film is expenisive" is not a helpful critique of this, or any
Polaroid camera. That's just the way it is. Think of the money you spend
on 35mm film, and then seperate processing. That's why Polaroid film costs
more money.
This Spectra takes sharp focused pics at all distances. It's a far cry
from the old fixed focus, or manual focus Polaroid cameras. The minimum
distance from the object is something like 2 feet, which means it can't
focus too close, which is a shame, but Polaroid also makes the Spectra
1200FF which is a fixed wide-angle focus, so it has some macro features.
Good camera, very versitile. Forget digital cameras, support Polaroid and
keep them alive.

A fun camera, December 16, 2001
Reviewer: Chris D. Rasmussen "Gadgethead"
I own this camera. It is a fun "grab and go" camera when you see something
and need a take a quick picture. It's fun at family and friends get to
gethers, but the film is a little expensive, but what the heck, have fun
anyway. If you need to document something for your insurance company, or
want to keep a photo record of your collection, it works very good. All in
all, a good camera to keep with you at all times, (just in case).

Not a good camera., December 1, 2001
Reviewer: Ryan Kirkpatrick
I was excited to try out the new polaroid camera using the bigger film.
What a waste, if you want a great polarid camera you are going to have to
go to some special camera shop, if you want a decent one don't buy this
just get the old stand by, one step (...), its just as good as this camera
if not better.
