Lady Gaga may be armed to the tit on the cover of this month’s Rolling Stone, but it’s a very different kind of shooting she’s got in mind with this new retro gadget she helped design. Called the Polaroid 300 Instant Analogue Camera, it is a modernized version of the Polaroid cameras of olde, popping out brilliant, 2.1″ x 3.4″ color photos in seconds (instead of the hours of downloading, rotating, previewing and general messing about with digicams). Instant gratification, or what?

Unlike the digitized Polaroid Pogo, this analog(ue) shooter stays true to its roots – exposing at-arms-length Thelma and Louise-style moments directly onto photosensitive paper – no fancy chips and sensors to mess up here. Bringing this dependable, tried-and-tested tech into the 21st century – the Polaroid 300 Instant Camera comes equipped with modern battery-powered conveniences such as manual exposure compensation, auto adjust, as well as a 1/60th second electronic shutter to sync beautifully with its auto flash. It even reproduces that classic white border effect on your photos for a nice nostalgic touch.

Available in three eye-catching colors (red, black and blue) that will be the envy of fellow fanatical little monsters everywhere, the Polaroid 300 Instant Analogue Camera is available now from Firebox.com for $119 | £80 | €97, with packs of 10 sheets of instant film also available for $19 | £13 | €16.
