IS048 Waterproof Camera

I do a lot of mixed video-type things. Currently, I have a GoPro, and I have a tripod for it. I build videos on cars and drones, so I set it up and use it as a "studio" camera type thing. It's high quality and wide-angle, so it's great for "hands-on" type content. I really want to get into outdoors stuff, POV driving, drone video, and POV photography (outdoors and in public), I feel like the GoPro strapped to my head is just too large and draws too much attention. I also have to say that any chest mount I get for it is about the same size as a bulletproof vest, and as a result, is extremely bulky and draws attention as well. I'm looking for something that will have just as good quality and be able to do wider shots when I am working with things close up, while also being a good bit smaller/inconspicous than the GoPro so I can go out into public while recording without drawing too much attention.

Get her a Polaroid or one of those "instant cameras". At this range you won't find a "real camera" that's worth it. You will see suggestions for entry level Canon DSLRs that are 15 years old. And while these old cameras can give good results they require a lot of experience and photo editing to produce images that are on par or better than a modern phone. Also they will require multiple lenses and are heavy to carry around and have outdated menu systems. Give that camera to an amateur and he will hate it unless he is **very very** **interested** and motivated in learning photography.

Maybe consider Fuji instax or polaroid Go cameras

Thank you! Yeah a friend gifted me a Polaroid camera and so far I'm actually liking that and it's given me a little spark again because it's this physical tangible thing I can hold. When I dog sit I always give people a picture. I use Lightroom but I don't have another workflow for batch editing besides that. Also I think my current laptop has just about had it so I gotta back up still what's on there. I'm trying to sort things by year now and then the client's name.

Budget: Around $150 / as cheap as possible, but I also care about the long-term film cost. Country: Turkey Condition: New or used is fine, as long as it is reliable and easy to use. Type of Camera: Instant-print camera. Intended use: Casual use with my girlfriend, mostly for taking cute memories and printing them instantly. If photography; what style: Casual snapshots, couple photos, daily memories, travel/walk photos, cafe/outdoor photos. Nothing professional. If video what style: Not needed. What features do you absolutely need: Easy to use, affordable film, decent photo quality, reliable printing, and preferably not too bulky. I do not need advanced/manual controls. Portability: Important. I want something small enough to carry around easily in a bag. Cameras you're considering: Fujifilm Instax Mini 12, Instax Mini 11, Instax Mini 40, Polaroid Go, maybe Instax Square if it is worth the extra cost. Cameras you already have: None. Notes: I am mainly looking for the best value option. The camera itself should be cheap, but I also want to avoid a model where the film becomes too expensive over time. This will mostly be used for fun memories with my girlfriend, so I care more about convenience, film price, and cute-looking prints than professional image quality.
