Cure for Polaroid Withdrawl



Although I never owned a Polaroid camera, I like many others felt a stab of regret when Polaroid gave up on its most famous product. Yes, there are some alternatives from Fujifilm, but it's just not the same.
Luckily, The Impossible Project has taken up the mantle of instant analog photography. They've released a type of film called PX100 First Flush, which yields sepia-y monotone prints. Two examples are shown above, and you can see more at their online database.
You can buy the film from their website, a pack for $22, starting March 25 (in two days!). They're also going to release color packs later this year. Yay for analog!

Polaroid PoGo

I just heard about this nifty little device a couple weeks ago and I've been wanting one ever since. It's a tiny printer that you can hook up to a mobile phone or digital camera for instant prints on equally nifty Zink (zero ink) paper. You can connect your devices to the printer wirelessly and, as you can see, it fits as easily into your pocket as the phone itself. Zink also comes in adhesive sticker varieties, so you can make instant original stickers. Think of the possibilities! At $150 a pop, they're not even that expensive. Let's all get one and paper the world with our images.
