Cool a camera that you can't get film for, what a concept! In case that
wasn't clear enough, Polaroid DOESN'T MAKE FILM ANY MORE!!!

if that wraps; http://tinyurl.com/6acuc6

So this "camera" will be useful as a paperweight, or buy two and use them as
bookends...

Perhaps, but it's nice to warn others about this non-camera.

Hi there.

I had a look at the web site and there is a cross against the entry for
"film type" so they may say this indicates there is no film available for
it.

I took a look at the definition of SHUTTER SPEED:

"The shutter speed of a camera depends on two variables: the size of the
lens and the actual timing of the shutter, opening and closing. These two
factors work as a team to control the amount of light that enters the
camera. This is measured in fractions on a shutter speed dial which
illustrate how long the shutter opens and closes in a set period of time.
The term speed refers to how long the lens remains open. For example, a
setting of 1/60 on a shutter speed dial means that the shutter opens and
closes within one sixtieth of a second. Various shutter speeds can be used
to manipulate the final result of the picture. Usually, a faster shutter
speed is used to freeze the scene, for motion shots, while a slower speed is
used to create more of an unfocused, abstract result."

The size of the lens? Is 1/500 on an 18mm lens different from 1/500 on a
200mm lens?
Ah well, it amused me.

Regards, Ian.

I just noticed this on the web site:

"Minimum Focus Distance 36 ft. "



Wow!
