Polaroid PoGo Instant Digital Camera by Karen Day
For those down to their last cartridge of Polaroid Instamatic film after desperately seeking out every package they could find upon hearing the news it was going out of production, well there's hope yet. Unfortunately, it's not the vintage classic, but seeing the error of their ways, Polaroid has come out with a new instant digital camera, the PoGo.
One positive aspect is the new version's compact size, weighing in at 10 ounces and only taking up 4.7 inches x 3 inches of space. While it takes about the same amount of time to print a picture as it did to wait for an image to appear on the old Instamatic film (depending on how long spent shaking it), there's no doubt the quality is going to be better.
Look for the Polaroid PoGo Instant Digital Camera beginning in March 2009 for $200.

Kanye West's Complex Cover
Pushing the boundaries once again, this time Kanye West is inspiring the use of advanced imaging technology on the new cover of Complex magazine. The photograph is the result of a facial scan that gathers data from a camera that rotates around the object. A computer then stitched the images together to create an eerily detailed 2D photograph. Chris Milk, videographer and photographer behind...

Cameratruck
Taking pinhole photography to a whole new scale, photographer Shaun Irving transformed a delivery trucks into the world's largest mobile camera, the Cameratruck. The resulting prints (see "First Kiss" below) bear the rich anomalies that come from the technique—he says the best images are the ones "where you can't tell where the image ends and the squirreliness begins"—but in a size roughly 3,000 times...
