Kodak Step Touch
Score: 80/100Rankings
The Kodak Step Touch is a lightweight hybrid camera-printer with a 13 MP sensor, 10× optical zoom and ZINK color printing, offering strong performance and versatile features. Limitations include modest battery capacity (≈40 prints) and small print dimensions. It suits casual photographers and travelers who want instant color prints without ink cartridges.
The Lomo'Instant Automat Bora Bora is a fully automatic Instax Mini camera featuring interchangeable lenses, unlimited multiple exposures, and a built-in flash with a 9 m guide number. Its drawbacks are an off-center viewfinder, reliance on CR2 batteries, and a plastic construction that feels less rugged. It is best for creative travelers who want lens versatility without needing professional-grade durability.

Professional reviewers commend the Lomo'Instant Automat Bora Bora Edition for its eye-catching design, interchangeable lenses, and vibrant image quality, especially praising its multiple exposure capability. However, they consistently note drawbacks such as the off-center viewfinder, the need for hard-to-find CR2 batteries, and the plastic construction, which together temper its appeal for users seeking robust build quality and precise framing.
Everyday users appreciate the camera's effortless automatic modes, vibrant South Beach styling, and the fun of multiple exposures and gel filters, but many complain about blurry low-light images, the need for multiple batteries, and the imprecise close-up focus.
Professional reviewers describe the Kodak Step Touch as a versatile, lightweight hybrid that excels at delivering instant, ink-free prints with a powerful 10X optical zoom, while its built-in editing tools add creative flexibility for on-the-go users.
