Polaroid ColorPack III Goodness

I had an editorial fashion model shoot this week in studio.  Did I mention that editorial & commercial fashion with digital is what most of my photography focuses on?  One of the things I do during a model shoot is play with assorted instant cameras for behind the scenes shots.  This week's shoot with Danish model Marie Smed was no different.  

One of the cameras I used was my trusty Polaroid ColorPack III with Fujifilm FP100-C film and Sylvania flash cubes.  The camera and the flash cubes are older than my model.  Just for fun I did a split image shot just for giggles.

I enjoy instant photography

Polaroid Big Shot

I went to the Goodwill Outlet the other day and found this super cool Polaroid Big Shot.  It's a single focal length instant camera.  Only takes 75 ASA film.  It was a dirty and grimy, but it was clean inside.  I bought it for about 25 cents.  Brought it home, cleaned it up and got it looking good.  Also, I also found an unopened box of Sylvania Flash Cubes.  Perfect, they go together.

Film is still made of the camera.  You can use Fujifilm FP-100C which is readily available.

Here's a YouTube video on the camera from The Film Photography Project.  Guess what, I'm going to use this camera during my upcoming model shoot for behind the scenes shots.
