What incredible timing. I just came into two rolls of this film. I don’t know how it was stored, unfortunately. But now I’m much more emboldened to shoot it.

I was 17 and out running around with a couple of friends. We wound up in a shopping mall -- it was 1985, so this was very much still a thing then -- and came upon a Polaroid Face Place booth. This was a photo boot that made single Polaroid prints for $1. We each made one of the three of us; this was mine. I’m the guy in the front. I’m blown away by the sharpness and color, which is better than any integral-print image I’ve ever seen. Also, the photo has retained its color even after nearly 40 years.

Thank you so much for this review! I love instant photography and own an original SX-70, but I can’t just buy film for it at the store like I can the 600 and I-Type films. I’ve been thinking about buying a Now and now I think I will.

Very nice — thanks for the thorough review. I’ve always thought these cameras looked terrific.

Nice! Thank you!
