WSJ: The Polaroid SX-70 as Sexy Tech | Frances Lehman Loeb Art Center | By Richard B. Woodward
Playing on the upper floor is a 1972 promotional film on the SX-70 by Charles and Ray Eames.
The show devotes considerable space to the SX-70 but not enough to Polaroid's role as a pioneer in big photography.
The color of SX-70 film was soft around the edges, and sometimes murky, a tendency suited to romantics such as Marie Cosindas and John Maggiotto.
Test shots with the SX-70 quickly became essential items on film sets, and for anything done in a studio.
Although Polaroid sold cameras capable of "instant" photographs in 1948 (development took more than a minute), this show begins in 1972, with the release of the sleek, fast SX-70 camera to the public.
