I don't know what all the complaining is about--this thing rocks and makes shooting so much easier for me. Worked like a charm the first time on. I don't care if it's a little over ten bucks; if TIP needs a higher markup on some things to make up revenue, that's fine with me. REMEMBER: They brought back the Pola film, for Pete's sake.

I love impossible films, I have purchased many but this particular item isnt worth the cost. Its great in princple and works pretty nicely out of the box and indoors, but has these downfalls: 1. Any sort of light breeze will cause this to flop and light will hit the pic, causing light problems. 2. It is not tough as nails as someone states, mine has small tears in the rabbit ears on the side after only a short amount (3 packs) of use. Still works, but it seems pretty quick for any sort of damage given that I am very careful when using my cameras. 3. It cannot be folded and stored that way - it will cause it to bend, forcing the film out of the top of the shield instead of the bottom. I learned this the hard way and discontinued use. My home solutions work better, and cost far less.

Well, this product does work when used, but I think the design is pretty bad because it's kind of time consuming. The biggest problem is you can't close your sx-70 when the film is inserted, so you have to set it up every time you want to take a photo and take it off when you're done. Basically that made me stop using. The old tutorial this website use to have - the cardboard technique - worked better and costed nothing.

You'd never know it to look at this thing, but it's really ingenious. The profile cut into it covers every crack that can expose and fog the print without being in the way and screwing up the ejection. The aluminum weight at the end keeps it tight to the print without having to touch anything- just shoot and leave the print in place 'till you can safely shield it with a darkslide or cold-clip. I been shooting a lot of the PX70 PUSH! film and this is absolutely essential to making that film a little less wild. Tough as nails- I've had mine in with the camera folded and haven't managed to put a crease in it. Just goes to show that it's more about the thought and design involved than the sum of the materials used to make it come together, and this is a perfect example of some simple materials being used to make a brilliant accessory!

hey will this work with my button that uses sx-70 film

Heya, will this work with a One Step SX-70 camera as well?

This "accessory" seems really strange to me, as does its reception. We're being asked to pay $13.99 for a piece of dark plastic which probably costs no more than a nickel to manufacture?? I'm very happy The Impossible Project is manufacturing new instant film in a former Polaroid factory, and I'm shooting with it. The results are rough, to say the least, but I'm thinking of the problems the film possesses as an artistic challenge. "Fantastic, awesome, great, buy it." Evidently the Project is selling more than a product (think Apple).
