Kodak Instant Camera by hjbenson

Kodak Instant Camera

Before digital cameras, the only way to instanly look at your picture was to use a Polaroid. My friend @guaranteed is in to using film and lately has been posting some photos that she currently taken with a Polaroid Land 210. Briefly in the mid-1980s Kodak also had an instant camera - the Trimprint. They had to take it off the market due to losing patent infringement lawsuit with Polaroid. But I still have one, with some help from my friends, I found it tonight with some (severely outdated) film and will try to get it working.

Fun shot. Also stubble across an old Polaroid instant snap in closet. Unfortunately the film did not work. Hope your film is still good!
