Most of the vintage Polaroid cameras floating around out there are the box-type 600 variety, and the OneStep CloseUp is one of the models I find most often in flea markets and garage sales. While a delightfully simple camera to use, I put together a guide for those who may be using one for the […]

Read More...New: Polaroid OneStep+ Camera Review
Just in time for the holiday season, Polaroid Originals is back with a new camera! This time they’ve combined the chocolate of the affordable and accessible OneStep2 with the peanut butter of the bluetooth powered control of the I-1. While not replacing my SLR 680 anytime soon, the OneStep+ is a great camera for people […]

This is a transcript of a live lit piece I performed at This Much is True in Chicago on June 13, 2017. A few weeks ago, I was dropping off my film to be developed – I know, I’m probably one of the only people in Chicago still getting film developed, but bear with me […]
Read More...New: Polaroid Originals SX-70 Instant Film Review
SX-70 is 600’s cranky older brother, and it’s taken me quite a bit of trial and error to finally get a review together for Polaroid Originals’ version of this format.

Fuji Instax has a new square format out, and I have a review of their first analog camera for it! Instax Square is definitely gunning for the classic Polaroid shape, but some odd design choices keep the SQ6 from it’s full potential. For now, I’m still going to continue recommending cameras like the Instax Mini […]

Read More...New Video: How Much is My Polaroid Camera Worth?
All of my free time this month has been consumed by the novel manuscript I’ve been editing, but I found a moment to record a new video! One of the more common questions I get is from people who just dug up a Polaroid camera and are wondering how much they’d get for the thing […]
Read More...New: Nikon N90s Camera Review
I’m finally getting around to reviewing my backlog of Nikon film SLR cameras! First up is the trusty ol’ Nikon N90s. This 90s-era camera can be had for peanuts today, and works great with decades’ worth of lenses. I still prefer the excellent Nikon F100, but you can’t go wrong with this guy. Read the […]
