[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 537904, member: 9240"] Found a pretty clean Polaroid Sun 600 LMS camera in a box in the basement. Seems pretty clean and I suspect it would work. All I'm seeing as film goes is either 8+ year old vintage stuff (at almost $50 for 10 shots) or film from [URL="https://www.the-impossible-project.com/"]The Impossible Project[/URL] that runs about half that. Seems the new stuff is far more light sensitive and needs to be kept darker for longer before it fully develops and/or can be exposed to outside light. Can't seem to get definitive answers around a lot of what current film will do vs. what happened a year ago or longer. Seems real temperature sensitive, blah, blah, blah... Literally a bunch of kids talking about it on YouTube, complaining and yet embracing the inconsistency of the film. What I'm looking for is real world experience, then and/or preferably now. $25 isn't a lot to invest in figuring out something, and I suspect I could enjoy playing with it, particularly if I don't need to worry about light hitting it after 5-10 seconds (that's the thing the seemed to be "working on" a year ago).
