polaroid 545 film holder

[Annie M.]

Are they now only suitable for the garbage bin??

Paper weight or door stop.

Thanks Jim!

Klunk Klunk .... 1090 to the trash.... hmmmmm... wonder what other wonders I have around here ( cleaning out the studio... finally! )

[Annie M.]

I'm surprised no one has up-cycled these into some other incarnation... wonder if I can make something out of my 2... hmmmm... where's my butter knife.

hey John!!!!!!

Just looked at your 'stuff'... lovely.

I have already taken one apart and am making a tiny monorail camera I am going to call it a Seanar & just take shots of the ocean.

good to see you are still around & doing good work!!

I wouldn't throw that out just yet. Although there is no film currently being produced, there are at least two efforts I know of to make some. Also there is still a small supply of good used stuff floating around on eBay and elsewhere.

Don't forget if the NEW55 project ever gets in production these will be useful again :)

Hope it happens soon!

I shoot Fuji Instax Wide in mine. One shot at a time , then into the darkroom to reload. Now that Instax costs more than FP100c, I don't use it often. But, if I didn't have a polaroid 405, the 545 would still see quite a bit of use!
