The possibility is very exciting, especially for those of us in the photographic community that appreciate historical, non digital processes. It appears they are focusing on film for the SX-70, but I’ll just keep my fingers crossed that someday in the not too distant future there may be a revival of the sheet films. Here are couple of my favorite polaroids from the archive:
