I got a Polaroid OneShot this past weekend at a yard sale for $3. I've been interested in getting a Polaroid just for fun, so I couldn't pass up a bargain. However, it uses 600 film, which Polaroid doesn't make anymore (of course, Polaroid doesn't make any instant film anymore) and the Fuji instant film won't fit. That just left The Impossible Project.
If you haven't heard of The Impossible Project, you should check it out http://www.the-impossible-project.com/. They bought a factory with all of the production equipment from Polaroid when they went bankrupt, but had to redo all the chemistry from scratch for the film. With some help from Ilford, they succeeded. It still has some issues (mostly stability), but it's still pretty cool stuff. On the downside, it is a bit pricey.
Here is my first shot with the camera, using PX600 Silver Shade.
