- Save Polaroid. Save the World…
From www.savepolaroid.com
“On February 8, 2008 Polaroid Corporation announced that it will discontinue production of the instant film that made the company a household name. This site will document the aftermath of this announcement and will serve as a home-base for the effort to convince another company to take over and begin producing the cherished technology that Polaroid has abandoned.
Over the next few days and weeks we’ll be assembling articles, links, stories and planning out the best way to create a joint effort to save instant film.
One thing you can do to help get things started is upload your photo to the Save Polaroid flickr group.
Read the details here.”

I read your post the other day about Polaroid deciding to shelve their instant film and wondered what I could do to protest.
It’s driving me mad the way our history is gradually fading around us.
Over here in the UK the mainstream place the public to buy cameras etc is Dixons/ Curries and they stopped selling 35mm film cameras a few years back.
I’ll be visiting the save polaroid site - Thanks,
John

Pretty amazing when a camera store actually stops selling film cameras all together. Very disheartening.
