I was so happy when the mailman brought my new camera today....
To put the 600 film i have in the SX-70 camera, i only cut the little plastic pieces off and the film fitted immediately.
Unfortunatly, when i made the first picture, there was way too much light in it.
I don't know what to do now, to make this better.

Some examples of polaroids SX-70 i hope i can some day achieve!

Does anyone have any tips or tricks for me, how i can reduce the light in the pictures or other things i could do to make beautiful pictures with this camera and 600 film?
I'd really appreciate!

Jippie: de camera is er!!! ik verwacht nu wel geweldige foto's van jou ;)
i really want a polaroid camera, did you pay lots for it on ebay?
aww, i'm sure when you find an amazing blog next, you will save the award and pass it on! surely it doesn't mean straight away? right?
i love polaroids :]
i got a camera at a local thrift shop last year, and it only cost me two dollars !
except film is ridiculously expensive (especially in canada), something along the lines of a dollar a picture.
and now that they've been discontinued, i can't help but be sad - polaroids are an art form in themselves !
zoe
I am just in love with all the beautiful pictures on your site! Have no tips on the polaroid-pictures question, maybe you just need some practise?
so jealous of this camera.
stunning.
your pictures are going to be INSANELY beautiful...
xx.
lucky you!
hope you figure it all out.
i love your blog <3
I love polaroids too. Sadly since the film has gotten too expensive, I haven't used mine in quite some time.
Did you take this when you were in the light or in the shade? Sometimes mine would come out too bright if I tried taking a picture of a sunny spot IN a sunny spot. Am I making sense? I mean for example take a parasol or an umbrella with you to create shade. I don't know if it'll work for you but it helped me in the past.
Oh Mila!
Thankyou for your sweet comment. It makes me all giddy inside when people can appreciate these posts :)
I have no suggestions for your problem unfortunately but i will say that your camera is just so retro! lol Its probably just as fabulous as it is aesthetically pleasing too of course! hehe
I'll be on the look-out for your posts. I do hope you manage the 'washed-photo' look in your piccies.
A hug from New Zealand :)
Hi Mila,
you can try two things:
1. try playing around with the little black knob at the front of the camera to reduce the light.
2. You can try using a filter with the film - I think filters should be available on ebay.
I hope this helps and have fun with your new camera!
I'm sorry, I don't know any tips to help you out :( But good luck!
Where did you get the camera from? I've been wanting one for a while
i have got a camera like that but i have never had any film for it. i really want to though but i can't even begin to think where i should get it and what i would cost
Congratulations on your new camera! :)
PS. I absolutely adore the polaroid of the flowers.
For any SX-70 models using 600 films, you will need the ND filter.

Hope that helps =)
i'm in love with the brooklyn bridge polaroid!
