Having a printout of a charming photo in your hands is never the same experience as seeing it on a screen, worse if you see it in a small screen, like a smartphone's
I got a Selphy CP1000 (most basic model but same printing engine) for christmas and I absolutely agree with this video. I collect vintage cameras and having your own photos in physical form is something else from viewing them on a screen.

How is it, does it produce good colors and the quality of the photos how is it?
I have the same printer and absolutely love it! When the grandkids and I spend the day together we can come back to the house and immediately print photos of the day and make a scrapbook page before they go home. 😊
I have used other small portable printers and they are great to have. I travel the world as a photographer and give out physical pictures to locals and they are so happy, and I come back the next day the people are way more responsive to you taking photos even if they don't get one in return. They take you to places others don't see, or are open to talk. When in Iraq I gave Iraqi soldiers pictures of them in uniform on duty. One of the guys told me a few days later his mother loved the print and he was so grateful for something to give a deeper connection to his family, his mother and wife made me one of my favorite meals and a big hug. Never underestimate the power of a physical photo.
Such a positive video. Thank you, Niels, keep creating great content.

Agree about having a fast 4x6 in print in hand, so useful. Though personally I'm sold on the Ecotank printer, super fast, super cheap per photo, glossies are stunning, large, small, dedicated paper tray for 4x6 in paper, mine also prints large super A3 13x19in. Can print wirelessly from a phone. A lot of photographers go for a big fancy multi cartridge pigment inkjet, only to find that it constantly clogs and ink cartridges are really expensive and always running out. So then they get a simple little Selphy like this to take that pain away. I switched from this strategy. With the eco tank if I have the slightest desire for a print I just go do it because it's so cheap and fast it always works and it never clogs and if the ink ever gets low which it hardly ever does you squirt a little more ink from a bottle into the tank. Sure if you need a small portable device like this on a shoot then that's an advantage. But in all other cases give me the eco tank.

Agree, if one needs a small and portable printer then this is fine, but for all else - the usual inkjet printer is a better option
Great video ! Thank you
Nice video, I used to have an old sagem easy photo printer which was decent but the carts are no longer available, so I opted for a cannon selphy and it's great. You cannot beat having the photo in your hand rather than looking at the phone, computer etc. deffo recommend them. I picked up the selphy printer for 20 GBP, boxed new. A good purchase.
I really enjoyed this video I have an older version of the canon selphy and I was able to get a battery so that I can take this with me on the go, although I also have the charger with me, it's not permanently set up in my home, I wish I had the space, but I really like this printer, I agree wish they had matte paper, also a photographer uses it for school photo's to have someone write the names down on site. I enjoyed the humour in this video. thank you for the video! Unsure why I was here - maybe I thought about upgrading as I've had the older version for awhile. Also I like the idea this is bluetooth rather than wifi like my printer so maybe it's worth the the upgrade.
I have a CP1300 and is truly one of the most incredible things I got for hundred bucks.

I've had ot for years, so it's a good investment too
Today I got Canon R50 camera and noticed that there is direct print possibility. Had to test it with my Selphy CP1300 with "Direct Link" or whatever it was called, printer was set as a WIFI-hotspot or so, then on Canon R50 camera I was able to select that printer and then I was able to print photos directly from camera with Selphy CP1300 without need to use cellphone either. I tested with two photos and both worked well but I got white border around them, might be because of aspect ratio of the photos in my camera or some settings, didn't checked but this was cool feature :)
"Glossy" or "matte" is not the paper - it is the structure (or lack of structure) of the protective coating. The 4th run through the printer, as only CMY are used, is this coating, and it is always glossy (and therefor needs this pattern to become more matte). I'm fine with glossy, it is also a better protection …
Great video!
Yep, I have Epson R3800 but Not used for few years and nozzle is totally clogged and it is probably impossible to fix it. And I really like the idea Print photo "Whenever I want" This things does not dry up nozzles like inkjet I believe! I want one! Thanks for the video!

Anyway as a semi professional photographer (i m at starting from some year, i m 23) : first, i made that count too. And 0,25 cent is really the same price of printing in a lab in Italy (at max 0,20?) so i could actually print photos from myself if they are not so much. Second the amount of thing u can do with a portable printer is crazy. 10x15 is not that big but is the minimum really decent so it s ok. I would prefer 13x18 like old prints but np. i will buy it 100%

I bought a pair of canon selphy printers with batteries for events a number of years ago, used them a few times. But, print media now discontinued. So if you buy, don't assume you can get the print media in the future.
Couple years ago, I bought a CP800, and I made good money out of it. It was very basic compared to this one but it's basically the same thing. It's great but it's not perfect. The black & white are blueish, and it's not as fast as you'd want it to. It's about 40-50 seconds per pictures. Also, if you get a dust particles on the paper while it's doing it's thing, you will see some funny colors on the picture. For the price it's a no brainer but I'd love to get a inkjet version with the same dimension.

Hi Niels de Kemp ! Thanks for the video. However, nobody seems to mention aspect ratio one takes their photos in, and how that translates to the output of this printer. It seems logical that you would need to resize every photo you wanted to print to fit the 6x4 output of this mac hine. This is tedious and would effect how you see the image, which is obviously not what you want, or you would have shot in that 3 : 2 ratio in the first place. I can't think of one photo I have taken at that ratio. Just sayin' ... Cheers and thanks again !

You can get 6x4 prints way cheaper from a lab (especially if ordering many) that's not really the point of the Selphy. I'm now on my 2nd one (CP1300) it's about the convenience of having instant access to an instant print at a reasonable cost and minimum fuss. My original one still works was just so old I can't get software for it to run on my latest devices. I get large prints made at the lab, being able to proof reduces waste and gives a better idea of what my image edits will look like on paper vs the screen. With the Selphy far more of my images find their way to paper and that's a good thing.
