Good for entretainment. This thing is expensive. Everybody agree on that I think. And that's why I give 4 stars instead of 5; because for sure it would make me happier if it was less expensive. But lets consider the facts objectively:
1. If you want cheap photos: go digital. If you want best quality: go digital.
2. As old technologies get less massified, they are bound to get more expensive, it's just the way economics work. They could eventually disappear, unless there is a niche that specifically requires the technology. Then survival as well as very high prices are assured. In the case of THIS technology: evidence photographs. But the conventional film could kill this niche.
3. Did you notice that the Polaroid camera has a flash but does not uses batteries? Guess what: the film pack is also the battery. So you are not just paying for the photos.
4. As with everything: If you buy bigger packs, the price for each photo is less.
5. Last but most important: Unless you work for a detective agency, government or police; this product is for fun, for amusement. Is a very expensive method for pictures, compared to actual alternatives, but is very recommended if you happen to have a working Polaroid instantaneous camera and want to amuse today's kids or even adults that never had this experience before.
Too expensive! This is such a ripoff for the price. You only get a handful photos for this insane price, which puts this around $1.50 a photograph. And if you experience the problem that I had where the film doesn't work in the camera, you end up wasting your photos trying to get it out. I feel ripped off, here.
Prices I was just wondering about the prices. The best deal is obviously to buy the twin pack. Or am i mistaken?
DISCONTUNUED POLOROID FILM SO PLEASED TO BE ABLE TO GET THIS FILM SINCE I HAVE AN OLD CAMERA USED FOR SPECIAL OCCASIONS WHERE WE WANT THE PICTURE NOW!! FAST SERVICE TOO. JEAN SISSON
expired this film arrived quickly and fit the camera just fine. however, even though the expiration date said 2009, the film had clearly been tainted in some other way, left out in heat or cold, or something, because the color was very poor and the pictures never really fully developed, maintaining a fuzzy, orange-ish color. Hopefully it was only this batch, but as the film has gotten so expensive and difficult to find, I won't be able to afford risking it again with this provider.
