I was thinking that also.
Why not, you know, a camera store?

Because of respect and love for the format, and the fact that other companies will be making compatible film.

Yeah, because new film is coming. Soon, hopefully...


Besides, a lot of people do odd things in the name of art. (not ^ that art...)

POLAROID FILM IS NOT DEAD

Sorry, but I had to repeat what Chelsea already said but people didn't seem to read.

Those One600 cameras blow anyways. SX-70 FTW.

They don't actually blow that much, but SX-70 still FTW because it's SLR, manual focus, and no annoying automatic flash... and it takes incredibly beautiful photos as well. And I guarantee you can find one used on Craigslist or eBay for less than what Urban Outfitters will charge for the One600.

I remember Polaroids from waaaay back. Like the early 70s. They took awful pictures. It was just such a novelty to have them (nearly) immediately.

Edwin Land is rolling in his grave.

The SX-70 was first produced in 72. Plenty of great pack film cameras were made pre-70s. "Awful" is entirely the wrong word.
