This was JUST the video I was looking for! I've been back and forth about which one I should get for my birthday and you've definitely convinced me to go with a secondhand Onestep Plus! Definitely got my sub, Chris :)
Love the onestep+
Just got my onestep+ yesterday, and can't wait to get film for it. Love the video!
Awesome!!! Let me know how it works out for you.
I just bought a new Now+ for super cheap, but I'm so glad I watched your videos before unboxing it. My One Step+ has never let me down, so I think I'll stick with that and resell the Now+.
You saved me so much headache. You're a hero!
Another great video Chris! I've been bringing my Onestep+ with me on my travels for the last 2 years now, and its a gem. A real people pleaser and a great ice breaker when you're new in town. Heat and airport scanners are the film's two greatest enemies btw :p
I do have a video coming soonish about traveling with film
Thank you for such a great, informative video! You helped me chose out of the plethora of modern polaroid models. Just got my onestep+ in today and so happy I went with your recommendation!
Oh that’s awesome!! Glad I could help! I have another video on the onestep+ coming out soon as well!
Perfect Video! I have been looking at the One Step Plus and the Now
Great line up right there!
Fully agree, have the OneStep 2 VF Stranger Things edition, the OneStep+ and also the Now+. The OneStep+ is a good choice. There used to be a filter set that can be used with the OneStep 2 VF and OneStep+. Some online shops still sell the filter set. Like with other cameras, the latest and greatest is not always the bast…
Oh yeah I forgot about that filter set!!!
i bought my sister a onestep+ but in the store i had no idea which one to pick,i had no idea which is better my option was onestep+ and polaroid now+,so glad i chose onestep+,the reason why i chose it was bec it was 10€ more expensive than the polaroid now+ so i figured maybe it has more features and more cool stuff and i kinda assumed that the one step+ is the latest polaroid camera.Then i found out it was made in 2018 so it kinda turned me off,but then i saw this video i’m just so glad i picked the one step+,we haven’t used it yet because we don’t have the film,we thought if we buy that we get free polaroid films inside the box,hopefully polaroid would add free films into their polaroid box.
Man, I wish I would have watched this and the other one before I bought the Now+. But I guess I’ll try to make the best of what I got.
Are you having troubles with it? If so contact polaroid.
Yeah me too
@@JustAnotherChris there not doing shit in my case they told me I didn’t know how to take pictures like bruhhh!!! I own the one step plus and takes better pictures!! I sent them pictures too and said It wasn’t a camera issue fuck Polaroid Fr!!
8 months later any news? Has Polaroid sent an update to fix the overexposing?
Nope! They still haven’t fixed anything
Ordered Onestep+
Thanks, man!
Awesome!
that’s what im looking for! considering buying a onestep+ after my exam, thanks Chris
Heck’s yeah!!
@@JustAnotherChris btw can i put the onestep 2 filter on the onestep +
As far as I know yes BUT I haven’t tested it.
@@JustAnotherChris thanks buddy!
Hey Chris, great video, love your content. Some food for thought in the comparison between the one step plus and the now plus… the one step plus was created by the impossible project guys, hence why that camera is practically the successor to the impossible project i-one camera. Using the same Bluetooth technology, app functionality and built in rechargeable battery. However after the impossible project was rebranded the Polaroid originals, they rolled out the one step 2, and then the one step plus, later the Polaroid lab… fast forward until Polaroid and Polaroid originals merge and become one brand again, now known as Polaroid, they release the Polaroid now. Very basic, didn’t feature a tripod mount, fiddly controls for the double exposure and exposure compensation, etc. following the trend, they then release the now plus, basically the now with the Bluetooth functionality. Interesting pattern the company has taken, and even more interesting comparing the different types of moves each version has made. For example the impossible project with the i-one, Polaroid originals with the one step classic aesthetic for the camera body, and now Polaroid… to which I suppose are simply trying to keep the target audience in range, with the slightly more digital functionality and style (such as the screen for the exposure count)
just bought the Onestep+ for $50 used! Definitely excited to see the bluetooth features. Thank you!
Now that’s a great deal!
I will never buy a used product ever!
The One Step+ was excellent, I use it more than the Now+ more because of the switching the focus manually!!!
Yeah I thought I was going to hate that feature but I have really enjoyed it
Hi Chris, for me you are the Goodfather of Polaroid.
I have both Cameras as well, and therefore i can say all you have talk about it is truth.
I have spend lot of Euros for Films and testing both typs.
The results are even the same.
For now i use one of my SX 70 Models or even the One Step + .
Thanks for the Video and greetings from Germany.
I have the now+ and the photos are actually really good (if you know how to use it)
I used all of its features to create an amazing gallery which everyone comiments me on
Wluld say that double exposure is pretty hard to learn but beautiful once mastered
Not enough people talk about how to properly utilize the app to get the most out of this camera and it’s frustrating
hey man, i have the now+ and every picture i take looks awful, is there anyway you can share your settings with me so i can try them out?
Interesting about the phone saving settings. I have the OmeStep+, and it was my understanding that you have to use the shutter button in the app to shoot manual, as using the camera button would override the manual settings.
I have been seeing people confused about this, me included. In my experience if your phone is open and on in the app and make setting changes you must push the button on your phone HOWEVER if you turn your phone screen off and the Bluetooth button is still on, on the camera it will save the settings so you can use the button on the camera.
Got this Bandera for 90 Canadian (65 USD) dollars based on your video alone. excited to dive deep into the instant cameras world 🙏
That’s a good deal!!
legend for these videos
I try my best!
Okey, I’ve commented a lot recently with questions, sorry about that lol. But I have come up with two cameras. The Polaroid OneStep+ or the Instax Square SQ1. It’s my first camera and I would be really happy to get you’re opinion one this🙏🏼 Keep it up!
For a first camera I always tell people to get a instax camera. Cheaper way to find out if you like shooting Instant photography
I just love the now. Got my friends some for Christmas.
Now that’s a great gift!
I'm want to know which one is best for both outdoors sunny days or low light at Concerts
Just bought a onestep plus and now I'm watching more videos to justify my decision lol, I was going to get a Now but I needed a tripod mount. What is the point of a timer on a camera without a tripod?? So then I checked out the Now plus but this video and others talked about the overexposure problem and it got me a bit worried, so I started researching and I was going to actually grab a OneStep 2 but there was a plus for the same price on Ebay so I got that. I'm excited! I've got a Fuji Instax Mini 11 that I really enjoy, and was going to grab a sq1 instax camera, but I wanted to try the wholly other different format! Still new to instant photography but I'm looking forward to cannonballing in after dipping my toes with the Instax mini 😅
6:28 - I assume it still works this way? That's super cool if you want to choose settings but not use the in-app shutter button.
I want to set aperture and shutter speed manually, then shoot from inside a car, using the manual settings to prevent the camera from exposing for the dark car interior and blowing out the exterior scene :)
I also prefere the One Step + and really want to buy it (again). Unfortunately I can't find it here on second hand websites in europe. Can you giove me opny advise about where to sell them and can be shipped to Belgium? Thanks a lot!
Great video as always Chris! Could you do a video on the new Fuji instax mini evo as the only videos available right now are all in Japanese.
It’s on the list for sure. And I do believe it’s only just hitting the US. For pre order that is.
@@JustAnotherChris Bet! Thanks for the response
Great review. Currently have the instax 11 but been wanting something with bluetooth. Stuck between instax mini evo vs Polaroid OneStep+ i‑Type Instant Camera vs Polaroid Now+ i‑Type Instant camera, not sure where to head. Which has the better picture quality, etc?
Comparing Instax and Polaroid is like comparing apples and oranges. It just comes down to preference. Instax are cheaper but don’t have a great camera selection ect.
I just bought the onestep+ and i love! It
Fantastic!!
You're awesome man!!
I do what I can!
was about to buy the Now+ , did research and stumbled across this video. I'm torn bc i would prefer the OneStep+ but it's actually more expensive than the Now+ everywhere I look, and i really want the filters that come with the camera which are almost impossible to find for the onestep. rip
Hmmm that is a pickle
did you buy now+?
@@user-sw2ob1lo9k i didnt. but i should have tbh
@@GRiMETiME did you get any polaroid ?
Glad I found this.. This is day 1 of me researching to try and figure out what Polaroid to buy my girlfriend. I found a buyers guide the kept mentioning the "OneStep+", which I couldn't find on Polaroid's website. What I could find was the Now+, which looked the same.. Unfortunately, I can't buy the OneStep+ from Polaroid anymore (Would have liked to have bought it new, had it come in the box since it's a gift). Has Polaroid discontinued the OneStep+ to boost sales of the Now+? Seems like a stupid move to me if that's the case.
Onestep+ was discontinued a few years ago. Check eBay Facebook marketplace and even Amazon
Yo Chris I was about to click off your video because I’ve tried the now + and in my experience it’s just as amazing as the one step+ but the only reason I was watching your video was because my one step + wasn’t taking the pictures Properly they would come out dark but when you mentioned that when the blue light is on and that it saves your last settings you had on I was blown away I haven’t tried it yet. So I’ll edit this with an update. Fingers crossed🤞🏼
Ohh yes please let me know your results!
@@JustAnotherChris It turns out it was actually the flash it stopped working and when I looked at it, it was turning black but I bought the camera new when it first came out and It worked fine but I put it away in its box and left it there for like 2 years and just now wanted to use it but now I do have to get a new one so yeah:( but your video helped me I might just get another one step+ Thanks!🙏
It also more beautiful than now🙃
Hi bro thanks for the video! To be honest I really loved the effect the Now+ did on the black truck photo... Is that the so-called double exposure feature? Can you recreate that kind of effect also with the One-step+?
Effect? That photo was out of focus. How would you feel if you took a photo of someone and it came out blurry? You spent money on that error and potentially not being able to retake that photo.
@@JustAnotherChris oh ok, got it, thanks! Sorry but I'm a newbie. Are there differences between the Now and the Now+? I would buy the One-step+ at this point but here in Italy is not that easy to find as the other mentioned
NOW and NOW+ are different cameras. NOW is great. Get that one
@@JustAnotherChris thank you so much! Sorry to bother you bro 🥺 but can you explain me why the NOW is better than the NOW+?
@@JustAnotherChris in your opinion is the NOW better than One Step +? Or what’s better than One Step +? That’s the one I got and I’m looking to buy another camera
Hey guys, the film of polaroid one step 2 and the polaroid now its the same? If not, wich one has the cheapest film?
Same film same price. Itype is what they use
@Just Another Chris I Hope They Get More One Step+ InStock In The Future
Unfortunately there won’t be. They have phased them out. Only place to get them now are on eBay,Facebook marketplace and there are a few on Amazon but they’re kind of expensive.
Do you have any complaints besides the user friendliness? Which just sounded like if someone had never used either the Now+ wouldn’t be an issue
No issues with the onestep+ that I have had with it besides forgetting to turning off the Bluetooth and it saving the manual settings for the next shot.But that was just user error.
i cant find onestep+ on amazon or everywhere, but now+ is available, i’m hesitant don’t know what to buy
Hey yourself a NOW not the +. But look on eBay and Facebook marketplace for a onestep+
Your intro is amazing
Thank you!
I travel alot for work and would love to have one to throw in my backpack. The Lomography Square glass is perfect but seems to be impossible to find right now. What else should I get.
Hmm if you like the square instax format look into Fujis square cameras the SQ6 is pretty good from what I have heard.
@@JustAnotherChris Thank you kindly. Not so much a stickler on format just would prefer a larger image than a mini and a smallish frame
I do have a video coming out this week on my top camera picks for each format. Be on the look out for that. Maybe that will help make your decision.
@@JustAnotherChris Will do. Binge watched like half your channel yesterday.
@@conroymitchell that’s what I like to hear!!!
Between the one-step+, the one-step 2 and the now, which is better?
Onestep+
Hey chris how long does the onestep take to develop? Been hearing the newest one is taking like 10 mins to develop zzzz
That camera doesn’t develop the film. The film itself is what develops and it takes about 10 minutes to fully develop
did you mean to put one step 2 @4:56
just curious
I did. I shot that comparison with the onestep2. It was a reference to my previous video.
I was really hoping to see that camera slammed off the table LOL 7:16
Almost did!
Wish Polaroid would invest in a glass/better lens rather than digital gadgets which go against the ethos of analogue photography.
I wish I saw this video before I bought the OneStep+ Gen 2, but now the OneStep+ is now $200, which was $50 more than the OneStep+ and is more than my budget
What's the difference between the onestep+ and onestep+ gen 2?
onestep+ dont have bluetooth @@Nasrin_17
does anyone know if the onestep+ charge or is it battery powered?
It has a built in battery that you recharge
Can you use it without film ?
no this isn't a digital camera. This is a film camera
It's a toggle switch.
I’m finally early !
Heck’s yeah!!
Polaroid onestep plus just disappeared. I'm so disappointed! I just want a good quality instant camera and each one has a downside
They don’t make it anymore. So I would check eBay or Facebook marketplace for one
@@JustAnotherChris I can't seem to find one with a reasonable shipping price. Guess I'll just wait until they produce a good camera, cause I figured from some other videos as well that you're not a fan of polaroid now plus and it's everywhere
Yeah the now+ isn’t good but the NOW is fine and that’s everywhere
@@JustAnotherChris okay, I'll look into it. Thanks man
Hi Chris, thanks for your review. A pitty that I watched it after... buying the Now+ (:(#%$&)!!. By now i want to shot my balls... not with the camara (still on shipping) i mean with real bullets!. Ill buy the OS+ and try to resell the other one.
You should give the camera shot MAYBE they have fixed the issue by now… 🤷♂️
@@JustAnotherChris I trust your reviews; i've just bought minutes ago the OS+ following your guidelines.. ill sell the Now+ to my girlfriend or online :D. Thanks for answering!!
Glad I could help! I still love my OS+ and my OS2
F Polaroid for switching! Seriously.
If you can’t get a onestep, get a now. Not a now+. The now is the next best thing, the now+ sucks
We don’t speak of the NOW+ around these parts.
This review was HEAVILY biased. I know that this is a review so, it's supposed to be biased given its opnion and experience-based concept. But good LAWWD it's like every second he would slander the Now+... it's not that bad. Just know how to use the app's features, camera, and film. That is all that's necessary for a good polaroid pic from the Now+, anyway here are some of my notes on the video.
3:19 *proceeds to explain the exact same flash concept the now+ has*🥴🥴 (lmaooo)
3:40 - 3:51 you have to assume that for both...you literally explained that in 3:19...*sigh* SMH
4:48 Really, you're an analog camera now? LMFAOOOO bye that sent me into orbit 💀
5:42- 5:54 Tapping and pressing are two different things...😐
6:28 Literally the only useful piece of advice I got out of this lol
🤣
