    Nice video! Just a few corrections: The film that peels apart didn't go in this camera, that type went into the first Polaroid instant cameras called pack film cameras, which was the previous technology before the integral cameras. This camera took integral film, meaning it developed in front of your eyes with no peeling or discarding necessary. The film packs came with 10 pictures (8 nowadays) and the disposable flashbars also had 10 flashes, 5 on each side. Also, the iType film doesn't come with a rechargeable battery, it has no battery because the new Polaroid cameras that use that film have rechargeable batteries. Your camera takes SX-70 film.

    It was like watching a magic show when these things were used at parties. I have some old polaroid cameras around here someplace. I should probably dig them out. LOL
    I think it took anywhere from 2 to 3 weeks for me to get back my developed rolls of film. And then there were the Foto Huts that would process your film in a day or less. Then places like Walmart had one hour photo processing. And then digital cameras killed that as well. Sad day. I still like using a 35 mm with film when I have the time and can find some place to develop the photos. I will probably have to get my own film processing setup. I have a few 35 mm cameras that I have bought over the years. Even my oldest son has the 35 mm camera bug. LOL
