5.0 out of 5 stars Great Little Camera, February 4, 2004

By	William E. Harrison III (Woodland Hills, California United States) - See all my reviews

I bought two of the cameras, one for my sister, and one for myself. Some of the reviews are really silly. The film is available. Sammy's Camera store in LA has plenty. All ten pictures work out of the pack. The camera is exceptionally easy to use and the pictures are sharp with good color. Also the camera isn't bulky at all. It is rather small. This is a fun camera. A great novelty for school, parties, social outings, etc. The only problem I had was with the batteries not making contact initially with the inner prong (which had to be pull-out a little). Other than that this is a great little camera.

4.0 out of 5 stars small & cute, December 28, 2002

By	stephanie y barnes (upper marlboro, md United States) - See all my reviews

Most of the time it takes good pictures. It seems every other picture comes out. For some reason the film pack says 10 exposures, but out of two packs I was only able to get 8 exposures per pack. But I love the compactness of it. And it's so cute. So far I've only seen it in Target stores, and they have marked them down after 2 months. I hope this camera will be around for awhile, not like the Handle Camera which I have also, without film.

5.0 out of 5 stars Cute, Easy and Fun, June 26, 2004

By	Josey Treat "Jazzy Girl" (Huntington Beach, California) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The Polaroid Mio is an excellent camera. In fact, I may just be in love with mine. It is so cute, so much fun to use and takes great photos! Even the photos are cute - wallet size instead of the regular Polaroid square size.

I've used my Mio both indoors and outdoors and haven't had any trouble with photos not coming out. That's not to say that I haven't taken bad pictures, but that's no fault of the Mio. Even the bad ones come out in focus and colorful.

If you are a first time Mio buyer, I'd suggest stocking up on film. You'll have so much fun with this little guy that you'll use it much more than you think you will.

All in all, the Polaroid Mio is an incredible instant camera and well worth owning.
