    Shooting with a Pink camera?

    After checking out Randy's gorgeous Century 8x10, thought I'd better show off my nice new Pink Polaroid Pussycat 4x5......
    Question is, would you shoot with an LF camera this colour?

    Sure, it'd match my 'Hello Kitty' camera.
    When I grow up, I want to be a photographer.

    I'm laughing more at the "US GOVT PROPERTY" mark on the top.

    It's the old corporate strategy, don't worry about products that don't sell or pass the quality assurance tests, the US Government will buy them. Imagine the poor civil servant who had to use them in the field and on their property list, "Camera, one, pink....., value..."

    When you stop laughing think about how much of your taxpayer money is spent doing this when they opt for the cheapest bid and either get defective products, or replace or fix them sooner than normal.

    It would go good with your purple beret.

    Let's hope Litty doesn't rip off the idea with rhinestones and such for the Fifth Ave crowd

    Does it come with "Polaroid Barbie"?

    Dean,

    How can you be so insensitive in such a politically correct environment as today? Quietly possessing such an object is one thing, but displaying it to the world? I can't wait for the headlines tomorrow. It has been in the closet too long. And what will the majority camera colors say? And it's Easter too. Did you even stop to consider how the camera feels?

    Dean,

    Call Penthouse, their logo was 'Think Pink' wasn't it. They have a great marketing team, sell everything. Of course you'd have to convert it back to Polaroid

    Happy Easter (oh, sorry. That would be Playboy bunnies)
