5 comments about Polaroid 600 Film Twin Pack.
- SO PLEASED TO BE ABLE TO GET THIS FILM SINCE I HAVE AN OLD CAMERA USED FOR SPECIAL OCCASIONS WHERE WE WANT THE PICTURE NOW!! FAST SERVICE TOO.
JEAN SISSON
- I was just wondering about the prices. The best deal is obviously to buy the twin pack.
Or am i mistaken?
- This is such a ripoff for the price. You only get a handful photos for this insane price, which puts this around $1.50 a photograph. And if you experience the problem that I had where the film doesn't work in the camera, you end up wasting your photos trying to get it out. I feel ripped off, here.
- This thing is expensive. Everybody agree on that I think. And that's why I give 4 stars instead of 5; because for sure it would make me happier if it was less expensive. But lets consider the facts objectively:
1. If you want cheap photos: go digital. If you want best quality: go digital.
2. As old technologies get less massified, they are bound to get more expensive, it's just the way economics work. They could eventually disappear, unless there is a niche that specifically requires the technology. Then survival as well as very high prices are assured. In the case of THIS technology: evidence photographs. But the conventional film could kill this niche.
3. Did you notice that the Polaroid camera has a flash but does not uses batteries? Guess what: the film pack is also the battery. So you are not just paying for the photos.
4. As with everything: If you buy bigger packs, the price for each photo is less.
5. Last but most important: Unless you work for a detective agency, government or police; this product is for fun, for amusement. Is a very expensive method for pictures, compared to actual alternatives, but is very recommended if you happen to have a working Polaroid instantaneous camera and want to amuse today's kids or even adults that never had this experience before.
- Delivered quickly, excellent service.They are still making Polaroid film-great to know..Make sure you buy the right film for your Polaroid camera-there are different kinds..We used it for a picture book for my wife's 50th birthday bash. Guests take a picture, glue into the book and write a little something next to the pic-good fun. All the film was used and performed perfectly. Definitely would use the site again.

5 comments about Polaroid One-Step 600 Instant Camera.
- This is a nice camera for those quick instant photos you want of people. However the size of it is large and the photos aren't exactly TOP quality. It's nice to have for those quick shots to show right away. The actual picture aren't something you put in a scrapbook or picture book, but I wouldn't buy this camera for those reasons. These pictures are ment for the refrigerator or a bulliten board to look at on your way out or for quick viewing. Thats why I like it because the pictures are nice to look at, but they're not priceless pictures that you treasure. So in conclusion, I would highly recommend this camera for fun and quick purposes.
- I definately love this camera. It's incredibly fun and gratifying to get your pictures developed a minute after you take them, and this camera in all honesty isn't meant to be professional. If you want professional quality go buy an slr or a digital. This kind of camera should be purely considered for enjoyment. Yes it is heavy but not in a way that makes it uncomfortable--it's bulk makes it nostalgic. It has very basic camera features and is one of, if not the, easiet camera i've ever used--just shove the film in and go. The camera takes decent quality pictures and tends to put a slight sepia tint on them when taken inside, but i consider that a cool trademark effect. The features of this camera include a lens that can be slid over to take closer pictures, a sliding numberless aperture setting, built in flash, and a button that lets you control the use of your flash. The only drawback is the fact that you can't take pictures closer than 2 feet (like all polaroid cameras). The lens of the camera also makes ojects closer to the camera larger in proportion to ojects farther from the cameraon the prints but it's not incredibly noticable. Overall, I enjoy it very much and would whole-eartedly recommend it for anyone.
- Polaroid is a popular camera brand, especially its instant cameras. Unlike other cameras such as Kodak, Canon, and Vivitar, it is self-protected when you close the front top hood down. It is well prolonging and does not require any batteries at all. All you need is brand new or fresh Polaroid 600, 600 Plus, or 600 Platinum film which can be inserted into the base of the camera. Then, a green light appears/glows and you will be set to take awesome pictures. Another reason why this camera is popular is because you get the pictures instantly.
- This camera arrived in great condition, despite the poor packaging and wrapping.
It was packed in a soft cardboard box wrapped in Christmas paper, with no instructions, or original paperwork. I did have small bubble wrap surrounding it that kept it intact.
Shipping was slow, but the product is great.
- There was some sort of screw up with the postal service and they claim the package was delivered, but I have yet to receive it and it's now been four weeks. I know the company I bought it from can't really do much because there end of the purchase was apparently technically fulfilled, but I have yet to receive the package and all they told me was it was marked as received and if someone stole it then thats a federal crime. So I'm now without a Polaroid camera and out like $20.

5 comments about Polaroid 600 Instant Film (4 Pack).
- I ordered 600 Platinum Film from Ace Photo and Digital. The picture showed Polaroid Platinum Film and this was written on the order form but when the film arrived it was just the plain 600 instant film. I would not have paid more money if I knew it was the regular film. It seems like false advertising. When I called the company they said that Polaroid stopped making that type of film and that it is basically the same film. I am really unsatisfied. I would have just gone to Target and bought it for the same film. They offered me a 10% refund. Don't be tricked if you think you're getting something different than the regular film.
- How can you dare showing on Amazon Polaroid 600 Platinum picture when I received the regular 600 Polaroid. Shame on you, never again! I am in Toronto and it would cost me too much money to send them back. It cost me more with shipping and handling and brokage fee than the actual product. Please Amazon get rid of this company or tell them to put the actual picture of the product they sell. What a disappointment! Too bad I cannot rate -zero.
- This was the product: 6 "600 Instant Color Film (3-1/4 x 3-3/4), 10 Exposures/Cartridge, 4 Cart./Pac"
$50.55
Sold by: Endless Variety
All the film worked fine except for 1 of the 24 10-packs, which seemed to have a manufacturing defect. Polaroid film is getting harder to locate and more expensive each year.
- This product was sent in a timely manner, the company proved to be one of the best, in my opinion, I have ever dealth with online. I am a native New Yorker, the company is from New York, (Brooklyn) I received terrific service from them. Leave it to the New Yorkers!!!
- If you need Polaroid film, this is a good buy but beware, you don't get the platinum film, just regular 600. The photo is misleading.

- ORDERING WAS EASY, DELIVERY WAS PROMPT, THE PRICE WAS REASONABLE AND WHEN I NEED THIS ITEM AGAIN I WILL ORDER IT FROM YOUR WEB SITE !!!
- With Polaroid stopping production of it's instant film I was happy to obtain it now.
- The product is great, but the fact that these blood suckers are taking advantage of the downfall of Polaroid instant film makes me hope their business follows suit with the Dodo or Pepsi Clear.
- This film is hard to find so I was glad to be able to locate it.
Arrived in a timely manner.
- It appears Polaroid has stopped production of instant color films. Civilization declines a tad. Few will care. Bless you Edwin Land and the Germans who developed the original technology.

5 comments about Lomographic Holga Starter Kit.
- What FUN- This little gem has been a refreshing "shoot from the hip" way to blow through film without a care of what I am aiming at or knowing how it will come out during my Photo Classes at the college. Yeah- FUN!
- This is a nice way to get introduced to holga and lomography/medium format cameras/film cameras in general. The additional photo books are inspiring and the electrical tape included is a good addition!
- Love everything about it... the camera is the best! it arrived in perfect conditions, loved the book in the kit, the film, the poster.instructions...
- But with a Holga, the lack of perfection is what makes it special! :Love this little guy. The colored flashes add even more hilarity to the beast! Cheapest way to get into medium format ever. Oh... and so NOT a toy!
- I went out on a limb buying this camera. My friend has a fisheye camera and I thought that was cool, so I googled it, and then discovered the Holga and the Diana cameras. I looked at countless pictures taken with the cameras and decided I wanted part of the double exposure club.
It is so exciting waiting for the pictures to be developed and the pictures have come out great so far, really interesting...I tried using 35mm film and the pics didn't turn out right so don't waste your time trying that trick. Skip 35mm modifications altogether and stick to 120!
I love my Holga and recommend this camera for anyone who is looking to jazz up their photographic journey thru life. I use a digital but whenever I bring out the Holga everyone wants to know what the heck it is and want to play with her.

5 comments about Holga 120N Medium Format Fixed Focus Camera with Lens.
- so i got this camera to toss in my bag and use for fun. i've been shooting for several years now and am well aware of basic concepts of photography (e.g. aperture, shutter-speed, film speed, as well as film and print development etc). my first roll was completely washed out. i was pretty upset, i had a lot of great pictures on that roll and they were gone, huge bummer. i haven't used it since. the thing that blew me away was that two of the pictures developed, the rest were completely blank. while i assume it was something i did i couldn't pin-point what it was and still have no clue. i'm going to stick with my trusty 35mm, hope you have better luck than i did.
- This camera is great, but dont buy it if you are looking for a fancy camera! The Holga is the absolute bare basics- its quite literally the simplest camera ever. You should only buy this if you know and are expecting that...but the Holga is an awesome way to simplify your process and toss away the frills
- Great images, a fun take back to older times. This is a great camera for the professional photographer that just needs a break from it all. Just compose and shoot. One never knows what will happen.
- I expected vignetting, light leaks, blurred edges, etc. that this camera is famous for, but the camera takes quite sharp images. It was only after purchase that I learned the manufacturer has recently tightened up on quality control, plugged the light leaks, and improved the plastic lens. I might as well just use my high-end digital Canon! ADDED-On this and many other web sites this camera is described as fixed focus, in truth the lens is fully focusable.
- The Holga is a medium format camera taking size 120 film. I has a single plastic lens and a plastic body with a shutter that is controlled by a single spring. It sounds like a piece of crap and it is. But you will be astonished that it will make such interesting photos and how creative you can be with it. Forget all you know about the technical side of photography when it come to the Holga. Just shoot and wind and be surprised by the results.

- I had to buy Polaroid film for our school. This was the best price and was delivered quickly. The product is what it is.
- We received our order of Polaroid film in excellent condition and in a timely manner.
- I had received my polaroid film in a not very well packaged box. I had called customer service and received a prompt resolution to the issue of the film that was damaged. Restockit customer service did their best to do what they could and I felt satisfied with the outcome.
- As I said, the product came quick, we will see, if it performs well.
Good service.

5 comments about Polaroid One600 Classic Instant Camera.
- This is a great little camera but the price here is INSANE. It's only $39.99 at Target.
- This is a great camera. I really like Polaroid Instants and I really like this particular model. HOWEVER, please go to ebay or some other retailer where you can purchase this for roughly $50 to $60 dollars. I'm not even sure what the justification for this type of price gouging could be. Yes, polaroid is phasing out the instant camera and it's film, so....if I buy this camera for $200 then what after the film runs out? It's not like the camera is going away forever and everyone will want one of their own. Not many people are going to keep their instant camera once they can't take pictures anymore. Maybe this seller has $500 film to go along with this bargain, hmmm?
- It'll probably be a matter of time before a digital camera is created that can print its photos as a Polaroid does. But until then, the Polaroid is the only type of camera that can do this. When you see a Polaroid photo, there's no question it's an original. Which is great for insurance claims, etc. That's in addition to the fun factor. Also my teenage kids, with all of their digital gadgets, love the Polaroid for the instant photos. It's a shame that the cameras and film are being discontinued. There's still plenty of us all over the world who love Polaroids. (By the way, Rite-Aid has the One600 on sale at this time for $19.99)
- As for how well this camera works, it's great. HOWEVER, Polaroid is discontinuing manufacture and sale of its instant cameras and film. So keep that in mind when you purchase. The price may drop if you really must get one. Also, Target sells them for $40, so I have NO CLUE why they are so expensive here. But anyway, I was about to buy one myself but I think I'll skip it now.
- I just got this camera less than 2 days!
Fast shipping! and Good quality!
I really like it!
