This camera has met all my expectations and I love it. I love the Time Machine features and am amazed that even the auto 600 mode does a great job (when feeling lazy) or even without Time Machine attached.Ĭolor snaps are fun with this camera, but B&W just looks awesome!! I have only had this camera for over a week now and am loving it. While I find the Mint accessories such as the Lens kit and Flash bar pretty cool and a worthy addition (e.g the close focus lens), I‘m still prefering to use the camera “as is”. there is nothing out there that new or in development to match it (step up from SX70) The only advancement there is in terms of Polaroid cameras. Full manual control: the Mint Time Machine is what was always missing on the SX70ģ. Ability to use 600 film by default with ND filterĢ. Hopefully I‘m wrong.Īs a collector/user of vintage Polaroids, I decided on the SLR670s and not on the classic SX70 this time because of 3 things:ġ.

focus seems more on party snaps, with their release of the One Step 2 (which I also own) and not so much on anything serious such as SLRs. The underlying technologies implemented in Mint 19.x will be the basis for further development and the GTK 3.22 support will ensure developers can use apps developed using Mint components on other distros like Fedora and Arch without much trouble.I originally saw this product available on the Polaroid Originals website, however decided to support Mint directly, mainly because I like what they are doing for Instant Photography and also am a bit confused on the direction Polaroid Originals is taking since rebranding from Impossible. Linux Mint 19.x will be mostly under-the-hood changes as the team feels the previous version already had a lot of features built in. Users are, however, free to download and use KDE on Linux Mint independently if they wish to. KDE will no longer be offered as an option in the ISO. GTK 3.22 is already being used in the Linux Mint Debian Edition (LMDE) 3 and the developers state this will be the GUI theming engine going forward. GTK (GIMP Toolkit) is a cross-platform toolkit for creating GUI applications. Mint has a consumer rating of 3.97 stars from 102 reviews indicating that most customers are generally satisfied with their purchases. It is interesting to see that Mint 19.x will use GTK 3.22 for theming. 'Tara' will be based on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and supported for five years till 2023. Development has just commenced on the next version, which will start from version 19.x.

This means, all versions in the 19.x branch will have codenames starting with 'T'. The upcoming version of Linux Mint, the popular Linux distro, will be codenamed 'Tara' according to the developers.
