Amazon Prime Big Deal Days are upon us, and that means there are hefty discounts on hundreds of products. If you're like me and love photography, you may have had your eye on one of the best instant cameras. Now's the time to save big. I've loved instant photography for as long as I can remember and I'm in the envious position of getting to review one every two weeks or so. I've found some pretty sweet deals for you this Prime Day — don't miss out on these!
For example, the Fujifilm Instax mini Evo bundle is currently 11% off at Amazon, and if you're familiar with Fuji's instant cameras, you know you're getting the best-in-class print and image quality. Meanwhile, the Polaroid Now+ Gen 2 is currently 20% off at Amazon — and it comes with 16 pieces of film. And there's more where that came from.
But once these deals are gone, you'll have to wait a couple of months until Black Friday — and there's no guarantee you'll see them again. So what are you waiting for?

myFirst Camera Insta 2: was $99 now $59
Why should kids miss out on the Prime Day fun? myFirst makes tech for children, and the myFirst Camera Insta 2 is perfect to fuel their creativity. Perfect for children aged 3-12, the camera takes 12MP images and can record 1080P video too. It's very easy to use and comes with a 32GB memory card. You won't need to worry about your child damaging it either, as the shockproof, soft plastic shell provides protection against drops, ensuring durability and reliability. Also, it can last for up to five hours on a single charge. What a steal!
Fujifilm Instax mini 11 bundle: was $179 now $134
My first instant camera was the Instax mini 8 and I recently rated the Instax mini 12 very highly, so trust me when I say you won't regret getting the Instax mini 11 this Prime Day. An intuitive, minimalistic device, the Instax mini 11 produces gorgeous images in under two minutes, and its lightweight body means it's easy to carry around. In this bundle, you'll get 50 pieces of film and a carry case to keep this cutie scratch-free.
Polaroid Now+ Generation 2: was $174 now $139
The Polaroid Now+ Gen 2 is a really fun camera but it's pricey, so you don't want to miss out on this deal. With its easy use and advanced settings, this camera is well-suited to casual and serious instant photographers. I love its retro aesthetic and the accompanying five lens filters for more creativity. And the camera is compatible with i-Type and 600 films, so there are plenty of options to choose from.
Kodak Mini Shot 2 Retro: was $119 now $101
The wonderful Kodak Mini Shot 2 Retro is one of the best instant cameras for travel, thanks to its compact and portable body. In my Kodak Mini Shot 2 Retro review, I said that this camera combines vintage charm and modern convenience, allowing you to print lovely images from your smartphone while looking oh-so-retro. Color reproduction is faithful, and the camera itself is extremely easy to use, so what's not to love?
Kodak Mini Shot 3 Retro bundle: was $129 now $110
The larger sibling of the Kodak Mini Shot 2 Retro just got a sweet price cut on Prime Day too, so if you want bigger prints but the same faithful color reproduction and retro looks, check out the Mini Shot 3 Retro. Available as a bundle, you'll get 60 papers and cartridges to keep you going for a long time.
Kodak Smile: was $99 now $84
Looking for an instant camera with a simple yet clever design? The Kodak Smile is an excellent choice for those who want an easy-to-use camera that lets you choose which photos you really want to print. This Prime Day deal is a steal for this compact and portable camera — one that doubles as a mini printer which produces vibrant and lovely prints.
Kodak Printomatic: was $79 now $67
The Kodak Printomatic camera produces both digital and physical photos, and it's incredibly easy to use. In our Kodak Printomatic review, we noted that the digital images recorded by the Printomatic were pretty good. We also love the design, and how easily it slips into pockets. The camera is decked out in Kodak's trademark yellow and white, with a large black circle on the front where the lens is located, and it looks lovely. But it comes in other fun colors too — and they're all up to 15% off.
Fujifilm Instax mini Link Pink Printer: was $89 now $76
While this isn't an instant camera per se, the Instax mini Link Pink Printer is ideal for those looking to print their photos in Instax quality. The bundle includes the printer, 10 Instax mini white border film and an Instax idea booklet. With the companion app, you can add fun borders and filters to your photos before printing, and it takes just under 12 seconds for a print to eject — and 90 seconds for it to fully develop. It's also highly portable, making it a great companion when you go traveling.
Fujifilm Instax mini Evo bundle: was $359 now $319
I have been desperately waiting for this camera to go on sale because it's the best instant camera I've tested. In my Fujifilm Instax mini Evo review, I praised this camera for its premium build, 100 different effect combinations, superb low-light performance, and lovely print quality. I even used it to document my vacation, and it was better than using a smartphone. In this Prime Day deal, you get 40 pieces of film, a flex tripod, a 32GB memory card, and lots more.
There are plenty of Prime Day deals to choose from if you want an instant camera, as you can see. I can vouch for these cameras as I've used them, and you won't go wrong settling for a Kodak, Fujifilm Instax or Polaroid camera.
So, what will you nab this Prime Day? I'll be going for the Fujifilm Instax mini Evo deal — the bundle is too good to pass up on!
