For those of you keeping track, back in 2008 Polaroid discontinued their popular line of instant 600, SX-70, and Spectra film. The Impossible Project rose to fill the void by creating new instant film from the ground up that would work with vintage Polaroid cameras.

Read More...How to Take the Perfect ‘Private’ Polaroid – Featuring Ramona Romance!
Since their inception, Polaroid cameras have been used to take… how do we put this delicately… ‘private’ pictures. While other film formats depended on you either having your own darkroom (unlikely) or dropping off your film at the 1-hour where multiple people would be seeing and handling your 35mm (awkward), Polaroid was the first time […]

Read More...New: Canon Rebel 2000 Review
It’s hard to believe now, but the first half of the first decade of the 21st century (that’s a mouthful) was dominated by film. The SLR cameras from this era are some of the best 35mm ever made.

Read More...New: Nikon One Touch L35AF2 Review
I’ve been on the hunt for a great, affordable pocket Nikon 35mm camera that doesn’t break the bank, and I’ve found a winner in the Nikon One Touch, also confusingly labeled the L35AF2 (but not on the camera body, that’d be way too easy).

This wasn’t […]
Read More...New: Canon G5X Mk II Review
There’s nothing like a high-quality raw one-inch pocket camera to take with you on the road, and I’ve spent the past few weeks testing out the new Canon G5X Mk II, taking it to Ireland and beyond. Despite the limitations of the smallish sensor when compared to the grain-free results you can get from APS-C […]

Update: My full review of the Canon G5X Mk II is now online. Check it out! While I was working on building a full review of the Canon G5X Mk II (coming very soon!), I couldn’t help but wonder if smartphone cameras had gotten so good that there isn’t much of a point for advanced […]
Read More...Spectra Film Discontinued by Polaroid Originals (Updated April 2020)
(Update April 2020: Polaroid Originals has rebranded itself as ‘Polaroid,’ and the new website has scrubbed all mention of Spectra system film or cameras. You might be able to find some film floating around on second hand markets, but stock is going to be increasingly limited from here on out. RIP Spectra.) It seems like […]
