YEAH, for Instant Film!
I grew up with cameras around me. I still don't know why it took me so long to figure out that I want to spend my life taking photos. My dad loves taking photographs and I learned how to freeze time from his Petri 35 mm and his Instant camera. I loved the Petri...But there was nothing like the old Polaroid. There something magic in the sound of the print getting out from the camera, the anticipation, seeing the print develop quickly in your hands...the instant gratification.In February 2008, Polaroid announced the end of an era, no more Polaroids, no more instant gratification in the quest of freezing time and preserving memories. But, like happens in life, you tell someone they won't have something anymore and the desire to have it comes in. That's when the Impossible Project came in. October 2008, Forian Kaps and André Bosman bought the production machinery from Polaroid and leased Building North of the former Polaroid plant. Slowly they are reviving the film, the Polaroid Renaissance...I am excited to have my instant camera back and running. Finally, manage to buy some PX 600 Film V 06. Now, it's time to have some fun. Thanks, Impossible Project!
