Instant cameras may be a hit at parties, but a wasted shot of that precious single-use film can also be a hit to your wallet.

Handled via a smartphone app, users can wirelessly connect to the SP-2’s dedicated Wi-Fi network. From there, pictures can be uploaded, edited, and even combined into a collage before it’s printed – something a classic instant camera could never do.
