umm...that's not right

The new camera

So if you remember this post you'll know that as soon as the box arrived today I dutifully read the instruction manual and went on to play with my new camera.  As the photo session began the photos weren't coming out as I had hoped or expected.  The pictures were uneven and got darker the more I took.  Now I was using film that was already in the camera and I have no idea how long it has been in there.  So I am hoping all of those bad photos are due to spoiled film and not because I got taken to the cleaners on Ebay.

I don't know. It kinda has that red/smoky/disco 70's feel to it. Do the hustle.

it is an interesting photo, nonetheless. have fun playing!

The color is off and it's hazy. The effect is neat and the picture is retro cool, but it would be no fun to keep getting pictures with an unintended effect time and time again.

Whatever the problem is with the camera, I'm sure you will suss it out- but wow, that's a great chair. And I like the atmosphere the darkness creates.

thats a lovely photo, i hope you get the camera to work the way you want..

That chair is a beauty. The camera expert in Casa Knitsonya tells me that polaroid film might age differently than other types because it has all the inks already in it. I hope a fresh cartridge will brighten your life. (That's Mr. Knitsonya over my shoulder)

i love this photo, too. my old polaroid land camera makes all the right noises, but won't spit out the photos... *sigh*
