Beautiful video, I'm an SX-70 shooter myself, I've had my camera serviced and cleaned and it works great now! It is finicky and takes a few packs till you start to understand what makes a good photo and what doesn't but when you get the hang of it, it's great
Hi Sathya. "The Polaroids" by Andre Kertesz is one of my favourite books. He shot it with a SX70 towards the end of his life. It's a simple, poignant legacy, to his skills as a photographer
@@SathyaPeacock Hi Sathya. Oooops, I just remembered. If you go to the excellent you tube page of, Robin Caddy, who reviews photo books. There is a reveiw of the book. Plus, when I had a Nikon F4. I used the 180mm f2.8 on it a lot, a wonderful lens but a but of a dust collecter as the back element didn't have a cover Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
@@SathyaPeacock you’re welcome! And yeah sometimes Polaroid film can just be temperamental like that… More recently though I’ve not had many issues with the film itself, as I used to - especially when it was Polaroid Originals film. The formulas have improved sooo much

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I agree that it takes a while to learn the camera and how it meters :)
Great video mate, the shot and sequence from 1:20 is glorious. Really nicely put together history section as well!
Thanks a lot Sam! Those old adverts provided some inspiration for sure :)
Really interesting story
Thank you brother

@@colingerard7863 thank you for another tip! I'll check his page out :) Not used the 180 before, Nikon did make some wonderful lenses in their time
Lovely photos
Thank you Gabrielle!
Very informative! I had no idea Land Cameras where name after Edward lol 👍🏾
Glad you found it informative :) thanks for letting me know!
Very informative and I really appreciate the walk through the history to where we are now. Cheers brother lovely captures as always.
Thank you bro 🙌🏽
You could always get your camera serviced, and then the exposures would be fine (Polanthropy, based in London, is pretty good!)
Hey thanks for the recommendation! I shot a color pack since then and it’s fine, makes me think that bnw pack didn’t work as expected
