Photographic Tragedy?

I kinda knew this would happen eventually. When Carlos and I stumbled across the marvel that is a Polaroid back for a Holga, it seemed all too perfect for it to last indefinately. See friends, not only have they discontinued the production of said camera backs earlier this summer, the folks at Polaroid have decided to discontinue all speeds of film stock in the size needed to fit into these camera backs (type 80) by the end of the year. I'm super bummed.
In the meantime, I bought out all of the 100 speed Polaroid 89 film I use to take my portraits from Freestyle Photo in Hollywood and am planning on dropping even more cash on an online order soon. It figures though, one of the only things that makes me happy in this crazy mixed up world is coming to an end. Suppose now I have to dig up some more cash (??) and buy a for realz camera (ie Hasselblad). We all gotta grow up sometime.
