A friend of mine blogged about a recent shoot he did. You might enjoy the read, and be surprised at the use of Polaroid-type film for the project:

Your info on Polaroid closing up shop is a couple years old. You are also incorrect regarding the lack of available film:

And beyond the impossible project, Fuji Instant Pack Film (FP100C, 100B, 3000B) works in a number of the Polaroid 3.25x4.25 holders/cameras, for instance - the images in the article were made with 100C, a film that is in-stock at many retailers and currently in production.

I use the 3000B in my Land230 and love it. Great fun. I stocked up on the 660 film at Office Depot a while back.

Your friend did an awesome job, Jason! I love it.
