The return of the Polaroid Instant Camera


Long before the advent of digital cameras, Polaroid introduced the Instant Camera that really changed photography for the masses. No longer did you have to take your film to be processed to see how it turned out. The Polaroid was instant (well as instant as you could expect for the times.) But over time and with the introduction of digital cameras, the Polaroid faded into history much like the telegraph and eight track tape player (if you don't know what an eight track is, ask your parents.) But now a group of Polaroid enthusiasts have convinced the company to bring back this bit of photographic history. Here is a link to a Polaroid group about the return. It sounds like there will be some camera brought back into production and they will offer film for those who have a Polaroid camera collection dust in the closet.
