Exploring the detailed process of refurbishing and repairing SX 70 folding Polaroid cameras, including quality assurance, warranty, and salvaging components. The chapter also highlights challenges with aging plastics, yellowing due to UV damage, and innovative solutions like refinishing in a professional paint booth.
We've got another mid-week bonus episode for you! This week, Ellis talks to the owners and founders of a company out of Milwaukee that is fighting to keep old tech alive. Retrospekt started out selling Polaroid cameras and quickly expanded to include all kinds of neat tech. It's definitely a fun conversation with people who are clearly passionate about what they do. Enjoy!
