Speaking as someone whos too young/too poor to have ever shot packfilm, Kodak packfilm absolutley needs to happen, that stuff just looks like magic!

[BrettSaylor]

As usual, entertaining and informative. Keep making new videos on any instant film topic!

Pack film would probably be more marketable to the large format shooters than packfilm camera users. I am still waiting for the Lomography Instax wide back for my 4x5.

In response to some topics being too niche (11:20ish), the gear and topics are only half the video. Your passion towards the topic is what makes the video fun to watch.

Gotta organize a day where the analog community can get #KodakPackfilm to trend all over.

NASA video was definitely one of my favs !

Hi Ben, would you be interested to try out our instant camera? It's an interchangeable lens SLR camera working with fuji Instax mini film.

Hey Ben! Super stoked you answered my question about Cape Cod! I'm actually from the area, so I'll be sure to check out some of those hot locales you mentioned!

Type 55 and 665 my all time favorites, both making great negatives to work from . Making polapan internegatives for big fiber prints where great too .

I think if people continue to invest in smaller ventures, we can eventually rescale color film (and yes, that's an extreme task, but this we can aim high!) ... Also, we need to figure out what tech billionaire we need to get to fall in love with packfilm.

My SX-70 is my portrait camera of choice, the aspect ratio, the colors, the phisical feel of holding a photo in your hand. I just prefer it over my Olympus OM10, or any other camera for portraits.

Instant film is magic!!! That's all you need to say!!! My first instant camera was a Colorpack II!!!

[cowboylike_zoe]

would be pretty slay of kodak to come back to the instant photography world

[emmaferriter]

what is that little polaroid next to the polaroid go??

[terryhagedorn]

I skateboarded as a youth (Waaay-back, like at the beginning, before commercial boards were available, make your own from your old metal skates and a plank.) and I still felt the hit when that guy took a tumble. My skin actual tingled a little.

[andreapellegrino]

B/W film seems quite alive. There are so many options for reasonable prices: Ilford, bergger, foma, rollei.
On the other hand with color there's kodak and nothing much, also quite expensive

[joepgottemaker]

Thank you so much Ben! Love you😘 Will think about an boom for sure!!!
