Polaroid OneStep BC Series

Finding this camera was the genesis for my current Polaroid "diversion".

 

I found it several years ago at my uncle's house in Wausau (say, 2005-ish) and brought it home. Around 2008 or so I bought some 600 film at the hardware store of all places, tossed it in (no ND filter or anything) and shot an exposure or two for laughs, then put it away for a few years. At some point I started using it as a display prop in the Fiero (for shows and stuff), and I burned a few exposures at Dixie Square on the second visit, but as I had no clue what I was doing they turned out to be useless. Finally I finished off the pack at Fierorama 2010 and actually got some great shots - some of the most vividly-colorful pics shot on 600 film.

 

The real fun with Polaroid began when I started buying film for the Big Swinger, the following year. As for the OS-BC, it doesn't see much action these days but it's still a nice display piece.
