14 DAY TRIAL // Polaroid has announced a new line of Wi-Fi enabled bridge superzoom cameras at this year's CES 2014 show along with a cool-looking, Android-powered digital camera that can instantly share your photos on major social media networks as well as print them using a new ink-free technology.
In addition to that, Polaroid is also making smaller action video cameras especially designed to capture your every move whether you are biking, surfing, mountain climbing or performing any other extreme outdoor activity.
In a recent press release, the company announced two new action cameras, the C3 and XS1000i, which expand its existing line of high-definition sports cameras.
The Polaroid C3 camera features a unique cube design of exactly 35 square mm that comes equipped with a 5MP CMOS sensor as well as a wide-angle lens capable of capturing 120 degrees of action.
In addition to that, the C3 can capture 720p HD video footage as well as 1.3MP, 3.0MP and 5.0MP still images. The camera is waterproof up to 2m (6.56 ft), offers 2MB of internal storage space, features a microphone and LED light, and supports Micro SD memory cards of up to 32GB.
On the other hand, the Polaroid XS1000i is a professional sports video camera that comes with a 16MP Aptina CMOS sensor and an ultra wide-angle lens that offers 170-degree coverage. Moreover, the camera features a unique patent-pending quick-change mounting system, anti-shake technology, and gyro sensor.
XS1000i is able to capture 1080p Full HD video footage at 30 frames per second as well as give its users the capability to capture still images and videos at the same time with single, burst, continuous, and time lapse mode. The camera is also waterproof up to 10m (32 ft) and features shockproof technology that protects it from accidental bumps or drops.
The Polaroid C3 camera will hit market shelves this summer at a price of only $99 / €73. Pricing and availability for the XS1000i model is yet to be announced.
