The Polaroid camera may not be considered cutting edge anymore, but there is still a lot of love for the classic camera in the form of all of these modern Polaroid reincarnations. The Polaroid camera itself has long since disappeared from shelves, but that hasn't stopped designers from recreating cameras and other items in its image.
Photographers will be happy to know that many of these modern Polaroid reincarnations are actually fully functional cameras. The rest are random items -- everything from a flash drive to a wallet -- designed to look like one of Polaroid's many classic cameras. If you have been wondering what ever happened to the old school point and shoot Polaroids, then you are definitely going to want to check out all of these modern Polaroid reincarnations.
