  1. A new series is taking shape at StreetSoul: **Polaroids**.

    Black and white instant photographs made with the MINT SLR670 MAX and the Polaroid I-2.

    There’s no file to return to, no later version waiting to be rescued. The photograph comes out and, more or less, that’s it. I’m beginning to like that.

    It did not.

  6. Learning the Trade - Becoming an Aircraft Mechanic:

    Found my old negatives and Polaroids. Posted 25 old Polaroids from 1987-89 and talked a little about my early aircraft mechanic days.

  7. Testing... just a test. If you have time, please open and click the polaroid picture and let me know if you have any issues or see any problems. It's only been tested on Safari and Chrome so far. Clicking the picture should flip it around so you see the back.

    Thank you!

  8. I found a use for “failed” #polaroid shots that didn't go to the photo album. I stick them to the walls in my studio with washi tape. Those are still memories good enough to preserve.

  9. Did a quick visit to the Cleveland Museum of Natural History this morning. Trying to get good photos was challenging, only half the Polaroids came out and the exterior photo required some exceptional measures to salvage.

  10. Revised the design a little for The Barnacle battery for the SX-70 to be smaller and rounded at the bottom saving some space. Also some legends for attaching it and cut outs for the LEDs.

    The board is cool because it has both micro USB and USB-C inputs for charging plus USB-A outputs to power something else.

    Being underneath, it points the camera up instead of down so shots on a table with a timer are framed better.

  11. Polaroid: A Chemical, Mechanical and Optical Miracle

    Polaroid film and cameras are some of the most innovative and impressive products ever sold to the public. Now, many think of them as glorified toys, but that couldn't be further from the truth.

    This is the story of an almost impossible vision, and how Polaroid instant film came back from the brink of extinction. Twice.

  12. Looks like someone else tried to make an all in one SX-70 battery mod bottom shell but ran into the same boost issues I did.

  13. Inside is a "18650 battery shield" board that provides charge/boost to 5V (with an added 10uF cap). It also does 3.3V but not using it.

    Even though the camera usually uses 6V, it seems to work OK with 5V.

    Power is delivered underneath through two small pogo pins.

    This idea came from the "remora" case by nunocruz which is honestly a lot smaller than my solution but I have so many 18650 batteries to use.

  14. Second attempt at a i-Type battery mod for the SX-70. I call it "The Barnacle" because it snaps onto the bottom of the camera and uses pogo pins to inject power.

    There's also a 1/4" tripod mount snap on as well.

  15. Here's my attempt. It's a replacement bottom shell with 18650 and charge/boost.

    I modified an existing shell design to accommodate the battery. Bonus is the neck strap mounting points (something sorely missing from the 1st gen).

    Buuuut, it doesn't work. The LX-LCBST charge/boost circuit shuts down as soon as the motor is connected. The boost out is rated at 1A but I'm guessing the motor pulls too much as it starts. Boo.
