OH NO! Death to the Polaroid!

I dont have a polaroid camera, but i always dreamed of getting one. And now there doesn't seem to be a point to, other than displaying it as a piece of art.

speaking of things going digital, this site seems to have a giant-squid-load of magazines scanned, free and ready for the reading: http://www.mygazines.com/

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. I have heard about this but thought there was something about how, while polaroid will stop manufacturing their film, some other company is bound to pick up the recipe and start making compatible film. something about patents and expirations and such.

I am planning on making my next frivolous ebay purchase a polaroid sx-70, used in this meme going around last year - which is really beautiful in itself and worth a look!

READ IT! Because they tell you how to modify your camera to handle newer film.
