LoungeLog: September 2006 Archives

A while ago a friend came up with the idea of Polaroid week, a week of posting our favorite Polaroids. This gave me a chance to use my SX70 again. I looked online to see if I can get time zero film cheaply, to my surprise and dismay I found this on the Polaroid site.

Please be advised that Polaroid will be discontinuing the manufacture of its SX-70 / Time-Zero film within the first 3 months of 2006 due to the phasing out of components used in the production of this film.

We realise that this is disappointing news for our loyal SX-70 users and we would like to underline that, although the circumstances made it inevitable, it was not an easy decision.

We are very sorry for the inconvenience.

For customers who would like to continue using their SX-70 camera, we can offer some film alternatives below. However, we do appreciate that these films do not offer the same characteristics as SX-70 / Time-Zero film.
