What could Polaroid bring to the modern world of photography that isn’t there already? No one cares about instant print photography anymore.
I suppose that you don’t like Studebaker automobiles either?
Especially now that we have so many other ways to produce amateur naughty photos that don't require a trip to the drugstore.
Not sure what they could bring to the table these days that is truly innovative, in their core field. The only thing they had going for them in photography was really the instant film processing. Their cameras weren't anything special. The German's and then Japanese blew them away in that category. And the Germans still rule in the area of specialized, high end photographic glass.
There is still a market, albeit small, for polaroid instant film in the photographic community. I’m going to miss it.
Sorry... I think many like myself, have a love art in photography. There is a quality and unique ability that film photography in all of it forms has to offer.
It will become a hobby of those who can afford to purchase it.
Funny... it was introduced at a price level that was well above the average family and progressed to a popularly priced item that all families could afford, only to be relegated back to the pleasure of those who will be able to afford this technology.
It will continue to be used in art, graphics and other media realms where it can be respected for what it is.
