Polaroid resurrection

[Degroto]

Hi,

Good news for the polaroid fans:
http://www.the-impossible-project.com/

Just saw in on the dutch tv. Don't know what it will be but it does look hopefull. I hope they will start to make the medium and large formats as well.

Spread the word hehe.

Greets,

Peter

It's no doubt gonna be extortionate :)

The Impossible mission is NOT to re-build Polaroid Integral film but (with the help of strategic partners) to develop a new product with new characteristics, consisting of new optimised components, produced with a streamlined modern setup.

But why?

They make it clear that they do not intend to bring back the "analog Instant Film" (sic!) of yesterday for those among us that are already used to it.

Sounds very much the same as trying to bring back VHS tapes or 45 vinyl records or some other nostalgia item. Likely an expensive nostalgia item at that...

I heard it's a patent issue.
