In the process of digging for laser discs in our storage rooms, my mother had unearthed a diamond --
... well, make that TWO diamonds.
These days, everyone's got a flashy DSLR or a lomo. Because of that, I'm not too excited to get either of them. But even if I'm still sort of hung up on owning a DSLR, I would gladly forego any other analogue camera for a Polaroid 600 series model. These babies I have here have NEVER been used since we got them because the family thought films were expensive (they were gifts). 
Nothing says "vintage" more than a Polaroid and I absolutely long to shake-shake a Polaroid picture.
Does anybody out there know how I could get a hold of films for these locally? I've heard that production had ceased, but I know there are still dregs out there.
If you're a Polaroid fan like me, help save the films by going to SavePolaroid.com
