Last weekend while I was waiting for people to clear out of a shot with my mid-range DSLR, a young couple asked me to take their picture. Handed me the camera and I thought it was some POS point-and-shoot.
My surprise when the camera spat out a mini polaroid. I had a bit of a wtf moment (haven't used one since the 90s). But cute, I can see the appeal when taking pictures of people in certain settings, especially a young couple -- it gives that physical, aged feel that I could never achieve with my DSLR.
(In fact, reading the article, I think it _was_ a Fujifilm Instax Mini ... in lilac!)
There's your bit of confirmation bias for the day.
