[QUOTE=cr2142;45644239]I was thinking about getting some film for it since I have never in my life used a film camera before, but the only film you can use with it is polaroid 600 film, and you can only get it from some company which still makes that film.[/QUOTE]
It shouldn't be hard to find, but it'll be 15 quid for 8 or 10 sheets in the best case scenario.
At this rate even using them for anything is like destroying archeological relics.
impossible project?
Yeah it was the impossible project that only sell the 600 Polaroid film
Im really considering it, but as someone said above. its pretty expensive, like 8 photos for £16. Ill probably have to wait till the end of the month to get myself some film for it
If the film from Impossible was good quality I wouldn't mind paying that kind of money for it. But it's quality is inconsistent at best. I don't agree with paying a full price for a unfinished & unreliable product.
Okay, So theres film inside the camera but the according the user manuel, the battery life of the camera is based on the film. God knows how long this film has sat in this camera for.
when the camera is ready to shoot, it makes a high pitch buzzing noise. I really dont know if I should take the risk and buy brand new film for it considering it might not work.
the buzzing noise is the flash being fired up. there's no harm in giving it a blast - but photograph something worthwhile as you will likely never ever find this film again
The film is probably dead, I've encountered tons of old Polaroids at thrift stores with a few shots left, never had a single one actually work.
Yeah the battery in the film magazine just died most of the time. Only way you're able to use the film that's in it is getting a film magazine which has sufficient battery power (like a impossible magazine) and change out the film in a changing bag. The film chemicalswill be dried up though so results from them tends to vary from just outer corners not developing anymore to being totally unusable.
I just bought a Canon AE-1 for £20. They put it up as parts because they didnt have a battery to test it or something. No idea if it's actually broken or not
Found this relic at a garage sell for 7 bucks. Takes photos and video.

I'm editing the images of this band's gig yesterday which I'm getting paid for and it's the most stressful thing ever. Like a mix of excitement and fear, because cool I'm getting paid for this but what if they don't like it. aaaaaaaaaa

Bit of a disapointing day today, airbourne is going on in my town which is the annual airshow. The weather has been horrible all day so I didnt get a chance to get my camera out and take a few shots. Tomorrow should make up for it however since im going up to the downs to do some photography up there, hopefully get some planes in there.

Gifts to yourself are the best

Non-photography stuff again:
Well this order didn't work out. There were tons of issues on musiciansfriend's side. First, they lost the synth in the warehouse, then they were showing 2 different statuses for the order. It was showing as on-the-truck, and in-the-warehouse at the same time. Then I find out that the order got canceled. They couldn't give me a reason why, and my money was refunded, and they told me to wait a week for the synth to show back up in their inventory.
The next weekend I was going to be in SF, so I looked on craigslist, and found a guy selling one for $700. And it was a success! I bought this on sunday, and It's awesome.
I made a quick track in a couple hours while learning how to use it:
