Can this be rehab or serviced? i have an original one and needs servicing. Are the films and battery available in the market?

Hello NINAPVELASCO,The battery may still be available, but the film is not anymore. Kodak lost a lawsuit vs. Polaroid in regards to instant film, and they had to stop production.Since the camera and film is no longer made, it is unlikely they can be refurbished for less than the replacement cost on an auction site.

Salve io ne ho una originale, vorrei utilizzarla ma non riesco a capire dove posso comprare una nuova batteria e Delle nuove pellicole. Potresti indicarmi un buon sito? Grazie

Camera History Project

This website is the culmination of years of antiquing. My wife and I enjoyed travelling around the United States, stopping at various antique shops and finding different cameras. Since 2012, we have collected hundreds of cameras, and there are some that we have, but that have not made it online yet. When the real world slows down, we plan to resume our hobby! Feel free to check out our online collection, and using the comment system, let us know which you've had and which is your favorite!
