"A few months ago, I was in Los Angeles and grabbed coffee with my friend Eric Steelberg. Eric's a talented cinematographer and mentioned a piece of gear he wanted me to check out. Expecting the latest digital gadget to appear out of his bag, I was surprised to see him pull out a large brick of a camera that I'd never seen before. It was a Polaroid 180 Land Camera from the 1970s."
Kitty Fisher's insight:
From the old style to the new, Matt Morris gives us a close race, to which is better in instant photography. On old Polaroid land camera that produces a photo in less than 90 seconds, or a digital format that was also captured seconds ago. Maybe we should just live with both?

"For their wedding reception, newlyweds Quang and Ellie had a slow-motion photo booth installed that captures videos in warped speed. Thanks to video-production company Super Frog Saves Tokyo and RED Epic Camera, the video shows the couple and their wedding guests getting their kiss, dance and smile on in the booth — all in spectacular slow-mo. Fittingly, Robin Thicke's summer anthem "Blurred Lines" is playing in the background."
Kitty Fisher's insight:
Weddings are nothing to fret about, as long as you have a photo booth everyone can have fun. And in return a hilarious video came out of it.
