Shot four - Sonar focus test, it couldnt decide so I went manual and focused myself

I picked up a lovely black Polaroid SX-70 Sonar OneStep at the local flea market from the guy who has the camera booths I can't resist. Since I had a pack of partly finished expired Polaroid 779 available that I had clipped off the nubs that stop it from fitting into an SX-70, I popped it into the new camera to make sure the mechanism worked. I knew the film was crazy expired and created orange partly developed shots, I just wanted to make sure it fired and popped out film. And it does. I also shot a photo of the camera itself using my Instax Wide 210 using Instax film to go with the test shots for the album.

    @akles, thanks. This expired film is tricky to use since you don't know how far the chemicals will make it up the film. But it makes fun expired photos and that is fun. :D

    @fotomacher - Would I have to stand motionless for a long period of time in a gallery while people gawk at me? Because I have an unsteady stance and would be swaying around like a drunk at a party. :D
