@Anne — I assume the guys at The Impossible Project are focusing on the consumer packs first, though perhaps they will also do higher-end stuff for the larger format Land Cameras after the launch of the consumer stuff.

It’s worth checking out their website and emailing them; I think there is a (small, but premium) market for 4×5 and other such films. They’ll probably email you back, they seem pretty approachable.

Am anxious to get my hands on more 4×5 polaroid — any idea if that will also be included????

That is great news! Some of my favorite pictures (that I’ve taken) are Polaroids, because of the colors.

I think it’s cool they’re making polaroid instant film again.

But anyone realize that the OLD polaraoid film (as in the LAST instant film made before it was ‘shut down’) JUST expired recently.

sooo kinda convienent timing :P

Thank God. I’ve had customers asking for Polaroid film every time I turn around lately! Can’t wait to pass on the news! :)

My grandparents will be so excited, they take Polaroids at every family gathering.

Lisa, I agree. There is something about the feel of Polaroids. It feels like it adds a frame to life and what you see in that frame is your memory and yours alone.

Years ago, I “inherited” the old Polaroid camera my doctors were using to document specific cases. Glad to see that Polaroid film stock is going to be coming back!

I will be so excited to take some polariods again!!!! I have albums of polaroid pictures I have taken over the years. The story of Livingston is amazing! I do not think it would have been captured so beautifully if it was done in digital…there is something about the feel of polaroids.
