New Review: Impossible Project Color Film for SX-70 (Late 2013)

December 22, 2013 By Dan Finnen

This crazy train of Impossible Project instant film reviews continues with Color Film for SX-70.

Check out the review for all the details!

Celtx, why have ye abandoned us?

December 3, 2013 By Dan Finnen
