I'm not sure what I think about this news.....

Pop superstar Lady GaGa has become the technology world’s new diva, signing up with Polaroid to reinvent the instant film camera and debuting her own line of headphones.

The Poker Face and Bad Romance chart-topper, who is up for five Grammy awards later this month, placed her stamp all over the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas this week.

-------------------

Lady GaGa also hit the Polaroid stand to announce her appointment as “creative director” and “inventor of specialty products” with the company.

^i don't know what new stuff she can do ...
fun packaging ?
fun machines ?

nothing innovative in terms of "technology" ?


i heard this buzz around the "death" of polaroids was nothing true (since everyone in the industry keep working with them ...). what is that ? rumor ?
just a marketing thingy ?

Hi, I have a question to all you polaroid-experts and lovers
I own a polaroid supercolor 670 af, I have not used it since 15 years at least...now I would love to do some pictures with it...but I don't know what kind of film do i have to use? So happy to read here about the "impossible project"!! I knew it couldn't end like this

Last time I used a polaroid camera was probably 6 or 7 years ago, but it wasn't mine. I would like to buy one now & I have the similar question as above ^^

Glad to hear they'll make more film again.
