If you want to frame not only one but two Polaroids next to each other, our moritz p in the size 24 x 14 cm is the right picture frame. In this format you can frame two Polaroids side by side in landscape and portrait format.
In the "2" Polaroid picture frames you can alternatively frame single Polaroid photos in a so-called "large optical center". The large optical center is the position of the photo in the frame that has the same distance to the edge on the right, left and top, but a wider one towards the bottom. This position gives the framing lightness and makes it look very noble. We therefore also like to use this format for postcards in portrait format.
If you want to frame three Polaroids next to each other, we have the largest format of moritz p in 36 x 14 cm, the perfect Polaroid picture frame for you. The montage of 3 pictures has a very strong narrative power, whether as a sequence of several snapshots of that one afternoon at the lake last July (remember when we were still allowed to go out?) or as a combination of three photos of completely different places and moments that may have nothing else to do with each other. When they are placed in relation to each other, a completely new narrative emerges.
First and foremost, because it cannot be said often enough: Polaroid cameras and therefore Polaroid photos love LIGHT. Therefore: Find the sun! In the shade or on cloudy days you should also use the flash outside and for indoor photos always use it anyway, even if it "feels" bright. Polaroid estimates the range covered by the flash at 1 - 2.5 m. But there's one thing you should never forget when you're out in the sun: Backlight is the only light that Polaroids do not like at all...
An insiders' tip from Polaroid, which produces great results: In the morning and evening, the sun's incidence of light is still relatively flat, so these are the best times for wild photography.
The distance corridors of the lenses should be strictly adhered to. The mechanical controls for close-up and landscape shots will remain active for the next photo if you don't reset them, which can mean a dark end for whole movies. Believe us, we have proven this in a self-experiment (and cried bitterly).
One of the biggest sources for blurred photos is often the shattering pressing of the shutter release. Therefore: keep calm and press the shutter at the end of exhalation. Remember: the more light the camera has available, the shorter the exposure and the aperture has to be opened and the less "time" the shot has to become blurred and out of focus.
It's not new, but we tested it and found it good: the pocket trick. In the lower edge of the Polaroid is a chemical cocktail, which is spread over the image by two metal rollers during ejection and develops it. You can support this development by immediately bringing the newborn baby into a warm environment when you shoot at low temperatures - and into a slightly cooler environment when you shoot in summer. The ideal temperature corridor is between 13° and 28°C. It's best to put the fresh photo in your trouser or jacket pocket, where it's usually dark, because the photo is also sensitive to light for a moment.
By the way, you don't have to be afraid: a Polaroid doesn't break that quickly. Even though Polaroids have the talent to fill even the hardest motifs with fragility, which seem to come from dreams and magic. The photo can take it. We have also tested it.
