Polaroidy goodness.

Well, have you????, originally uploaded by norbography.

Finally, after trying for months, I have acquired a Polaroid camera. It is a Polaroid OneStep Plus, which actually uses SX-70 film, but you can do a bit of fiddling to get it to accept the easier to get 600 film. Given the cost of the film, I don’t expect to have this camera for long. Anywhere from $20-$30 for a 10 pack!

It does produce some fantastic images though. I have some fiddling to do to get it to stop over exposing the shots. The 600 film is a lot more sensitive than the SX-70 film, and a lot of people who do use 600 film in SX-70 cameras use a ND filter over their lens. Time to have a play on the weekend.
