Instax Mini film does work out cheaper than Polaroid Go film, but then you'll also need to replace AA batteries on a Mini whereas the Go just needs a USB connection to top up the power. Okay, so now it's time to answer the big question –which is the best instant camera brand, Polaroid or Instax? If you want to shoot polaroid, but think the standard size is too small the Instax Wide 300 shots the biggest, and widest image on Instax Wide film packs, making it much better for group shots.

The advantage here over a cheaper instant-print camera is an LCD display strip at the back revealing your chosen settings.

This can open up extra creative control, as well as enabling you to use your phone as a remote shutter release. The ability to add up to 256GB of microSD memory means that you can snap to your heart's content, then cherry-pick the images that you want to print. The editor of Digital Camera World, James has 21 years experience as a journalist and started working in the photographic industry in 2014 (as an assistant to Damian McGillicuddy, who succeeded David Bailey as Principal Photographer for Olympus). It's the world's smallest analog instant camera, and it produces fittingly tiny instant photos, too.

Hence the arrival of the Polaroid Now and Polaroid Go, its first new releases under the original brand name. Fuji has a much more extensive line-up of cameras, divided between Instax Mini, Instax Square and Instax Wide formats. The LCD screen is definitely on the basic side, too, sodon't go expecting the same kind of fidelity as in your traditional DSLR or mirrorless screen. Finally, don't rule out hybrid instant cameras– these are essentially digital cameras, but with a tiny in-built printer to turn your digital snaps into analog prints right at the point of capture. Until recently, Polaroid sold only one main kind of film: I-Type, which produces square format photos.

This may change once the wallet-friendly Polaroid Go establishes itself, but for now, Instax is the overall winner in our book. It produced sepia-colored prints in about one minute; color film would take a further two decades to arrive. That's why the mini Evo turns your smartphone into your very own print gallery, saving every single printed image in a handy digital format. With retro styling, it feels like it's pitched at the photo enthusiast, with some manual control over exposure and even the option to disable the built-in flash if you feel pictures are too bright. This coincided with the arrival of the earliest digital cameras, an industry change the Japanese company was far more prepared for than Polaroid.

Only Fuji would survive intact, and has since gone on to become the new market leader with its own range of cameras and instant film formats. There's also the SQ20 hybrid instant camera, which takes digital photos as well as instant ones, but its digital shots are only on par with early 2010s smartphones. My personal favorite instant camera, it combines the same image quality and shooting experience of the base Polaroid Now with the modern-day features of the OneStep+, giving you the best of both worlds. Instant film has been giving photographers almost immediate results since the medium's inception in the 1940s.The camera overall is pretty cheap and running it isn't too expensive either, making it a good option if you want to shoot instant on a budget. It produces prints that are half the size of traditional I-Type film, yet still has advanced features like a selfie timer and a double-exposure mode. This is especially important with cameras that use a photochemical exposure process, since results can vary greatly even in only subtly different situations. Polaroid and Instax film each have very different characteristics, due to their respective and unique photochemical exposure processes.

In terms of quality, the Polaroid Now cameras balance exposures better while rival Instax Mini cameras deliver slightly better image quality indoors.We don't test instant cameras using the same scientific lab tests we do on the latest mirrorless cameras and lenses – but our evaluation is no less exhaustive! The Polaroid Go (left) vs our current number one instant camera, the Fujifilm Instax Mini 11 (right). It steps away from the cute, showy, Instagram logo-inspired design of the Instax Square SQ1 and adds a sleeker and more sophisticated camera to the Square lineup.
