New Polaroid SX-70 Pics

Thanks to a BDay present from my sister I have a new used Polaroid SX-70 Land camera. And thanks to The Impossible Project who saved Polaroid film from becoming completely extinct you can now buy new packs of "polaroid film". The quotations are because technically it is now "impossible film" because the film is chemically slightly different than the old polaroids (but damn close). But they still work with the original Polaroid cameras. Click on the the link to find out more. Oh yeah, it's a bit expensive especially because they are now based in the Netherlands and shipping ain't cheap. Here are my first pictures with the new camera and new film.


This one is a mess-up but I like the way it looks and the middle of the picture looks like a range of mountains but it's just light exposed chemicals.

Yay! It works! :) Seems to take pretty cool photos too. How does it compare to the one you used to have?
