My name is Chris Osborne and I live in Edinburgh, Scotland. I’ve enjoyed exploring Polaroid image transfer prints using an old Vivitar Instant Slide Printer for a few years now. But more recently my interest in Polaroid has widened to all types of Polaroid camera and all types of Polaroid film.
Currently may favourites are Polaroid 100 Chocolate in my Polaroid 195 camera, Polaroid SX-70 TZ Artistic in my original model chrome and tan SX-70 SLR, and Impossible PX600 UV+ in my Polaroid SLR 680 camera. Unfortunately I’m running out of TZ Artistic and it is no longer available from The Impossible Project and simply too expensive to buy on eBay, so I’m experimenting more with Impossible colour films… they’re not quite there yet, but improving all the time! It’s an exciting time to be involved in instant photography…
