Someone offered to take a Polaroid pic for me. I was like do you need help figuring out how to use it? He said he was alive when they were popular, so no.

Lol

Haha. Love it. I had a Polaroid Swinger. My father had a folding bellows Polaroid camera. I still remember the chapstick sized applicator of fixer.

@skinnylatte I remember my great uncle showing me a Polaroid camera. I must have been 8 at the time? Something like that. It was magical. This would have been late 80s.

Which reminds me, now the weather is getting better I should crack out the film pack my wife got me for Christmas. I just wish the film wasn’t so expensive!

@skinnylatte think that Polaroid, at that time, was a really revolution and, honestly, use an instant camera also now, I use one sometimes during my travels, is amazing because usually you don't print your digital photo but found some photo into a box after years is always a big emotion.

They were amazing! I remember when my mom got one in the 70s. We'd all beg to fan the picture while it developed 😂
