I have been carrying around an old Polaroid Colorpack II land camera for a few years now. It has followed me from apartment to apartment, but i never bothered to see if i could still get film for it until this weekend.
To my surprise, i could get film for it. This camera takes Polaroid 100 series film, which is fairly readily available. This kind of film comes in packs of 10 and peels apart. The one i have still even has a dozen unused flashbulbs in the case!
Before i read the loading instructions here: [HowTo: Using a Polaroid Pack Camera] i ruined one of the packs of film. Goodbye 12 dollars! I didn't need you anyway.
After reading the instructions, I loaded the film with no trouble and managed to get a few shots off. I posted the first four as a set on flickr.
Fun!!!
