Photo Albums - (pola/instax) - what do people use?
« on: January 10, 2019, 12:08:27 PM »
Hello!   

Hope everyone is OK.   

I used to be able to get nice / cheap clear plastic photo albums for polas/ instax - but cant seem to source them any longer.  Just wondered what people use...if anything.

Its family snaps type of stuff.. just want something to keep them together  and out of harms way so my photographic genius might be recognised in generations to come.  (i.e the kids dont rip them up next week)

Hi Damion,
if you search ebay for "Polaroid album 600" under Cameras and Photo you will get a selection of Clear Plastic albums. They are mostly two pictures per page and they hold about 80 Pictures in total. I have used quite a few of these and they are ok. The original Polaroid albums are no longer made, I bought the last ones from Impossible. It would be nice if someone could make something like that again, the plastic ones feels a bit tacky in my opinion.

Thanks!   i have ordered a couple.  I used to get them from Muji and they were perfect...   sadly no more.     These look very similar and are a similar price, even delivered from HK!   lovely.


Thanks again

Hey Damion!
Nice to see you today!

For my Instax and Polaroids, I just get the cheapest ones I can get on eBay. They're usually ok.
But if you want an even better deal, you can always sneak into Ed's place and get some from his stash :)
With the amount of pictures he takes of the kids, he probably doesn't have any time to file them  ;D

Hi Francois,

Hope you are doing well.     Pictures of the kids is my issue also... seem to burn through packs and they are piling up!   I find boxes stuffed in drawers all over the place  - and now i need to get organised!
