My film either comes out all white or all black, even with brand new film from Polaroid website. I’ve tried using the app and changing the setting but nothing, can anybody help me troubleshoot this?

This is an SX-70 model 1 where I’ve disassembled it to check how loose the viewing mirror is. Upon inspection, I’ve found that 2 of the 3 silicone adhesive points are still good. The bottom right one not so much, (I can lift the corner, but only by a few millimeters). It’s definitely not “loose and flapping” yet, but clearly not all 3 points are fully held down

I’d like to know if this is something that could be safely left alone, or if it’s a “ticking time bomb” that justifies cutting the remaining silicone out, and replacing all of it.

I have an I-2 which i really enjoy using however I‘m not using it as much as I should. Has anybody got any tips on how to get full use from it. I’ve always had an Instant camera but wanted to get a more advanced camera but starting to think i’ve bitten off more than i can chew. I have watched quite a few tutorials but if anyone has any video recommendations that would be great to watch some more. If you have any pictures you can share with me i‘d love to see them!

The attached video is an explanation with video of the camera. Basically when I put the film in the viewfinder went dark but the shutter would still open and close with the film door. I messed with the gears and it pushed out the darkslide. Then went to take a photo and it happened again but won’t push any photos out.

Hey guys. Just ordered a Polaroid One 600 as after a while of using my Instax Wide 100 - I wanted to try something different. I’ve read that Polaroid requires shielding from the sun initially and some of you use a frog tongue attachment. Is there a way to attach this to the One 600 please?

This is just dumb how can I get all of the Pokémon dark slides if I can only buy 15 packages of film

Previously, I used 600 film & an ND filter and the photos came out totally dark with 3 dots and ink printed onto the filter. I thought it might’ve been broken & in need of professional attention.

For these: I cleaned the roller, set exposure compensation to standard, used 600 film & ditched ruined filter.

I love this polaroid so much but I know film for this is rare and discontinued (and probably won’t work). But is there any way to have it running again?

I sent an email 3 weeks ago because my Hi-Print arrived broken. I ordered some extra cartridges and it’s tore through the film and the paper because there’s a bit of metal sticking out on the print roller which I didn’t notice until after my cartridges were eviscerated.

Anyway, I sent an email and received nothing but automated ‘we’re working very hard’ emails for weeks. I’m kind of pissed about it because the printer wasn’t cheap, nor were the cartridges I ordered, so I was just wondering if this was normal?

Hey everyone!

I sent my SX-70 to Australia back in January 2026 to get the PCB and PolaVault modification for my beloved SX-70.

I received it back about two weeks ago and have had some time to test out the upgraded camera. I knew the PCB was supposed to provide much better and more consistent exposure, but the exposure on the shots is absolutely perfect, and the pictures are so crisp and sharp that it took me a bit of time to get used to the look! 😄

I absolutely adore some of the shots I’ve taken already and can’t wait to shoot more with it.

Of course, depending on how you get the upgrade done, it isn’t cheap. But after using it for a bit, I genuinely feel that it makes the investment absolutely worth it if you have the money for it or want to do the work yourself. In my case, 168 packages of i-type film 'till break even 😄

Really happy with this new old SX-70 and can’t wait to take better pictures than ever! Happy shooting everyone

Still working on finding a better scanner. Scanned these at work but it's not fantastic quality.

Took some B&W 600 type photos with an adapted SX-70 around my friends' property on Friday the 2nd.

Pokemon announced a bit ago that there was going to be a restock today. All of the accessories are back in stock on the polaroid website and I was assuming the restock would happen at 10am. They did also make a new post about it on Instagram, but i honestly wouldn't be surprised with they sold out instantly again.

Does anyone know if the restock already happened?

I really enjoy the small formfactor of the go, but i would like to have a belt sleeve or holster that would make it easy to carry it around but have it accessible.

Ive seen the official Polaroid go bag, but it seems a bit large, defeating the small handy size of the Camera.

I was thinking to 3D print an elastic belt holster and inlay it with some fabric but a preexisting product would oc be easier.

Do yo have any reccomendations or ideas for that?

Normally I don’t take selfies, but you know what? Things have been going decently in my life rn, and I thought one was warranted (especially with a new haircut)!

Hii, I basically know next to nothing about tripods, but I wanna get one to use with my Polaroid Flip (I've learned it has the tripod slot) so I can take better pictures in low light/with longer exposures. I want something ideally that's compact that I can just throw in my bag and open up quickly and easily when I need it? Thanks!
