so I wanted to see what would happen if I put 35mm film in a polaroid camera... and https://twitter.com/sickfootfour was nice enough to model. So here, ilford delta 400 shot in an SX-70 sonar

as you might be able to tell, 35mm film is not supposed to be shot in a polaroid, so to take that shot I taped three strips of film to a polaroid dark slide that I had cut the corner of, re-loaded it into the pack, put that into my sx-70 and then took the shot. After which I had to open the camera in a dark bag, remove the slide from the cassette, un-tape the film, and then develop it normally

this is... fun, and produces interesting and honestly really nice looking results. the depth of field is really thin, the lens would be sharp if the film managed to stay flat (and some parts are very sharp... but some others are really not), and it's cool to get results out of a polaroid camera that are not an instant photo! but it's not really practical. you can only take one shot, and then you need to unload in a dark bag, so it can't be used in the field, and it's also a pain to set up. Plus the film is scratched in places, from when I re-loaded it into the cassette. I may use it again for portraits bc it's a nice novelty though

this is one of the coolest polaroid adjacent thing i've ever seen. there's something about the way the edges of the photo have different geometry that the medium that's super striking. also the photo itself is excellent
