More new cameras
So, I got some new cameras again:
$15 from a garage sale – Voigtländer Vitoret (1965ish)
$3 from same garage sale – Polaroid Spirit 600 CL
So, anyone know where I can get polaroid film relatively cheaply?

right well the Smena cost $15 AU and the Lubitel was a little bit more at about $65 that is not including the postage for both either…. I am so excited and I cannot wait for them! Let me know how you go on getting film too. Do you have any good spots for cheap 120 or 35 mm – I especially love slide and out of date!
Bryan Davidson replied
Those are pretty good prices. I’m getting my Praktica fixed, costing me around $100 (I had a gift voucher :P ). As far as film goes, I found 4 rolls of 35mm that expired in 1998 in an op-shop. I find just scouting out op-shops and garage sales is the best place to find it. And if you don’t find it, you can almost always find some obscure pottery that someones grandma once thought was beautiful.

Oops, don’t forget; frugalphotographer.com has lots of film in strange formats, and I’m assuming you’d be able to find out of date stuff there too. I’m not big for buying onling (no credit card), but that’s my first stop to see how easy it is to find strange film formats.
