THE eighties are back this summer – even in our photography. Polaroid Originals has released their One Step 2: Stranger Things Edition, to celebrate the Netflix series Stranger Things season three. The series is full of wonderful 1980s nostalgia, from Dungeons and Dragons to Eggos Waffles, and even features the use of Polaroid cameras – making this the perfect collaboration to encapsulate the era.

The limited edition release also comes with specialised film, a must-have collectable for any Stranger Things fan. Each pack of eight will also come with 16 graphic design prints, all of which provide imagery of the show’s most recognisable moments, from flashing christmas lights to Scoops Ahoy ice-cream parlour. But, perhaps the cameras coolest feature is that it has been created literally upside down – the writing is flipped in an especially special homage to the cult TV series.

The One Step 2 combines the best of analogue photography with the ease of digital, complete with fix-focused lens, built-in flash, USB charging, and self-timer. The battery lasts 60 days, and the camera even creates a sharp image from as close as two feet, making it ideal for selfies.
Polaroid Originals have also produced an advert for the camera, showcasing its nostalgic ‘80s inspired magic – produced by Tom and Denelle Ellis.
