I refuse to believe this article on CNN about the death and end of Polaroid film. Well … I really refuse to believe that this is “the end.” I knew this day was coming ever since Polaroid decided to stop making film to focus on making digital stuff. I appreciate them wanting to push the technological envelope and further photographic technology, but they really let me , and small but loud internet community, of photographic luddites down. I have a feeling, and its just a hunch, that analog instant film is not dead by any means. In Japan these instant mini-film cameras are huge. As well, Fuji is rolling out old pull-apart film that was once only manufactured by Polaroid. We shall see. Until then, if you spy any Polaroid 600 film at your local WalMart or Target stores, and want to be a dear, keep me in mind. I think Santa has put me on the “Good boy” list this year.
Here is an example of the ol’ pull-apart film from my Polaroid Land Camera. Don’t my parents look nice?
