the camera’s flash charge
LED light:
1. Battery charged:
Enough charge for at least 2
packs of film.
The flash LED will blink green
whilst charging between shots,
and will be solid green when
ready to shoot.
2. Battery low:
Enough charge for about
1 pack of film.
The flash LED will blink orange
whilst charging between shots,
and will be solid orange when
ready to shoot.
3. Battery empty:
No charge remaining.
The flash
led
will blink red,
and the camera will cease to
operate until it is recharged.
A fully-charged OneStep 2
camera will have enough pow-
er to shoot 15-20 packs
of film, depending on usage.
To check the camera’s charge
at any time, switch the camera
off, then switch it back on
whilst holding down the
self-timer button. The 8 film
counter LEDs on top of the
camera will light up, indicating
how much battery remains.
For example: If 6 LEDs light
up, that means the camera has
6/8 (75%) charge remaining.
Once you release the self-timer
button, the LEDs will return to
displaying the number of shots
remaining in your film pack.
Compatible Film
The OneStep 2 works with
all Polaroid Originals i-Type
and 600 type film packs. We
recommend using i-Type film
as it is optimized for use with
the OneStep 2.
Power supply
Charge the OneStep 2 before
use to ensure it has enough
power for the duration of your
shoot (see →
Charge the Cam-
era
). The flash charge LED will
be solid red whilst the camera is
plugged in and charging, and will
turn off once the camera is fully
charged.
Attach the camera neck strap
See page
8 for guide to attach-
ing your neck strap.
Using a Tripod
The OneStep 2 has a tripod
socket in its base, which works
with most standard tripods.
Simply screw your tripod
mount into the socket on the
base of the OneStep 2.
Note
With most tripods,
the tripod mount will need
to be unscrewed before
you can load or exchange
film into the OneStep 2.
Cleaning the rollers
Sometimes excess developer
paste from photos may build
up on the camera’s rollers,
affecting the camera’s perfor-
mance and causing photos to
show unwanted imperfections.
The OneStep 2 has a built-in
roller cleaning mode to help
with this issue. Just follow
these steps:
1. Turn the camera off.
2. Open the film door.
3. Hold the flash override button
and press the shutter button.
4. The camera is now in roller
cleaning mode.
5. Using a damp cloth or cotton
swab, gently clean the rollers.
6. Press shutter button to
incrementally advance roller
positions.
7. Once both rollers are clean on
all sides, close the film door.
8. Rollers will automatically re-
turn to their correct position.
