Short videos about photography. (The second one is interesting for those who can't get their camera big enough.)
The first one gave me an idea: mix photos with paintings and drawings in a book, magazine, exhibition or web site, and it's suddenly easier to see the photos as art rather than records.
Dang, I'm realizing I'm actually missing the Polaroid SX-70 camera. The wonderful simplicity and directness of the thing. Once you clicked the button it was done. You could really focus on just the picture.
It also had an interesting softness to the pictures, a particular quality of non-sharpness and colors like you'd used a soft-filter almost.
And man, how brilliant was the reflex-viewfinder system!

Ah yes, those were the good old days ! with the SX 70, maybe one day 30 years or more in the future we will look back on our old digtal cameras, and think " there was a simplicity to those cameras"
