Their expiration date was last September. I wonder if the film is still any good.

If they’ve been in a cool place they may be OK.

Polaroid has one use in my mind. If you want to have a picture that certainly isn’t photoshopped, a Polaroid would be the hardest to fake.

They used to make Polaroid adaptors (”backs”) for some of the high-end medium-format cameras. I guess the pros needed to see if their shots were set up right.

I saw one do that (years ago) with a medium format camera; a Hasselblad--or maybe a Koni Omega Rapid--don't recall. An industrial shot of the lobby of our (then) new building.

Love Polaroid. The artist Frank Gillette did some beautiful grids with SX70.

You can buy a brand new bundled Fujifilm Instax 210 Instant Film Camera, Automatically-Adjusting Flash, High-Resolution Retracting Lens, and 80 picture film pack, for $95.00 at Walmart.

I bought the bundle for our Church last year to replace the old Polaroid they were using, but couldn't afford to buy film for any more.

Our Church hosts an "everything free" Pumpkin Patch Festival each year as an alternate to Halloween, and one of the booths is a Photo booth for the kids & parents, sitting in front of a decorated hay bale area.

Now that we have found a reasonable cost alternate for the Polaroid camera, (as well as a modern camera) the Church also uses it for other instances where an instant photo is useful.

The bundle is here (they also sell extra film):
