Inspired by that collodion in a polaroid camera I started looking up those, non rangefinder, polaroid EE cameras.
On this page http://www.parahanga.com/2009/10/ee100-special-polaroid-camera-review.html (http://www.parahanga.com/2009/10/ee100-special-polaroid-camera-review.html) I found this wonderful paragraph:
Like any Polaroid camera, you might waste a few films getting a few shots right. This is the badge we wear as Polaroid photographers. Smokers have there cigarettes, we have our film. They are both cause severe addictions and are expensive habits. However, cigarettes are bad, full stop. Polaroid film can take you both to the depths of despair to the heights of ecstasy. Polaroid Film is much more rewarding addiction.
Anyone else here got a funny/inspiring quote they like?

I feel like photography is jazz for the eye.
