SELPHY CP900

Como outros já comentaram, depende um pouco da proposta. Concordo com sua visão geral de que a câmera é mais “presente”, mais divertida e parece se encaixar melhor na pretensão de ambos, considerando que está vinculada mais ao “guardar momentos” do que a qualidade das fotos/impressões. O filme é caro de fato e vejo que geralmente as pessoas “tem dó de usar”. A facilidade de tirar 500 fotos no telefone e escolher a perfeita certamente contribui com isso, é uma outra abordagem de fotografia e não me parece fazer sentido “queimar” filme com fotos similares simplesmente almejando perfeição. Por outro lado, vejo valor na impressora quando falamos em maior número de fotos (se for um volume de fato enorme, compensa comprar impressão em lote igual outro comentário sugeriu). Mas não iria de instax não, as Canon SELPHY que fazem 10x15 me agradam mais e o refil custa menos.

The selphy I have is a 4x6 printer. Not the best size for an A6. My pocket printer is a Kodak Retro Mini 2 (dye sublimation) and I’ve had it 2.5 years (I love it so much) after much disappointment with several zink printers. Hope this helps.

color lasers generally don't print photos (continuous color tones) well but are more for designed graphics, etc. depending on how much color prints and the size you make, I'd say: get a Brother black and white laser for general printing and a Canon Selphy 4x6 color prints printer for the occasional color print. Or you could even print 4x6's at Walgreens for a few dimes if that works better and not even buy a color printer.

Canon Selphy for 4x6. Bigger than that, they become not really portable. You can get a battery for it, but I didn't, just plug it in wherever I am.

Canon selphy if you want 4x6. Hp Sprocket for smaller pics. I will warn that the Sprocket isn't recommended for longevity, it uses thermal paper that will fade over time. Highly recommend the Canon Selphy though.

I’ve bought the canon small selphy and it was too pricey for refills. I ended up buying the canon 1500. The refills are $0.33 instead of $1 and I can print 6 and cut them. My understanding is that canon will hold up over time and fade less. Plus full size they are great to print a picture and mail to friends.

Some of the old point and shoots did that, but you might need old cables, old printers, etc. Could be even more of a technical nightmare than use current tech. Some fairly recent Canons can still connect via USB to a Selphy printer I think via PictBridge. Instead, i'd look for a current printer that can work from an SD card. Not sure why that's any different than using USB, and you'll have to have some sort of storage IN the camera anyway. The Selphy printers can print from inserted SD cards, maybe others. If you want fast, that might be it. Or maybe try Instax if you can live with their small prints and low resolution.
