The Impossible Project came about when a few guys rented an old Polaroid factory in the Netherlands. After 17 months, The Impossible Project had found a way to breathe life back into the instant polaroid, once again, re-creating instant film for Polaroid cameras old and new. They also pushed the boundaries of instand technology producing new versions of the film. They will sell film for SX-70 cameras made in the ’70s as well as more recent cameras that take 600-series film.

Polaroid users all over the world can breathe a sigh of relief – no more stocking up from ebay or throwing away your camera.. There is now a place to go! The Impossible Project
