Lab automatically. If the darkslide has not
ejected, remove the film pack and re-insert it,
making sure it is pushed all the way to the back
of the camera.
Note Please check individual film
packaging for development time, handling
and storage details.
4. Turn the Polaroid Lab on
Push the black button on the right side of
the Polaroid Lab to raise the phone platform
to the photo taking position and power on.
The Rainbow logo LED will light up and the
film counter LED will light up to show how
many shots are remaining in the Polaroid Lab.
When you’re done, turn off the Polaroid Lab
by pushing down the platform. Alternatively,
it will turn itself off automatically after several
minutes of inactivity.
5. Open the app and select your photo
Open the Polaroid Originals App and select the
Polaroid Lab section. Tap the image selection
button to choose the image you want to
expose and tap proceed. The app will guide
you through your first exposure.
6. Place your phone on the phone platform
Place your phone on the phone platform
with the screen facing toward the lens of the
Polaroid Lab. Ensure that it is correctly aligned:
the top of your phone must be facing the rear
of the camera. Remove any phone covers or
screen protectors to ensure best performance.
The app will detect the Polaroid Lab and
orientate the image to be perfectly aligned
with the film. It will also display a calibration
image above the light sensor to correctly
expose your image without having to adjust
your phone’s backlight. Make sure that you
turn off all settings or apps which influence the
color of the display, such as night shift or true
tone, as these can severely impinge the final
photograph.
7. Push the red Shutter button
The Polaroid Lab will detect your phone on
the platform and will measure the brightness
of the display to ensure the perfect exposure.
Wait until the Rainbow logo LED flashes then
press the red shutter button. The photo will be
ejected from the slot at the front of the camera
as soon as you let go of the shutter button.
Remove the photo from beneath the film shield
and let the shield roll back into the Polaroid
Lab. Place the photo face down to continue
shielding it from light as it develops.
If you want to take another photo of the same
image then press the shutter button again.
Further Guidance
1. How much film is left in the pack?
There are 8 orange LED lights on the front of
the Polaroid Lab. When the Lab is switched on
and not in sleep mode, the LEDs will constantly
display the film count. The number of LEDs
which light up corresponds to the number of
shots left in the film pack. For example: If 6
LEDs light up, that means there are 6 shots
left in the film pack. If you have used up all 8
shots in the film pack, or if there is no film pack
inserted in the camera, then the LEDs will blink
rapidly when you turn the Polaroid Lab on or
press the shutter button.
2. How much battery is left?
The Polaroid Lab displays the remaining battery
level on four LED above the USB slot. When the
Polaroid Lab is charging the LED will flash, and
when fully charged with a USB cable inserted
the LEDs will all be unlit as it will be running on
power directly from the charger.
Battery level:
1. Between 1 to 4 LEDs light up
One LED indicates enough charge for
at least 2 packs of film.
2. Battery charged and USB cable
connected: No LEDs light up.
The film counter LED will show the
remaining number of photos.
3. Battery empty
No charge remaining. No LEDs light
up, and the Polaroid Lab will cease to
operate until it is recharged.
