Hi, I am interested in purchasing this camera for my babyshower in May. I am wondering about the film? Do you sell film or know where I can get it?

I purchased the camera for my daughter, we ordered film on line, it never came.I am going to check a local camera shop in Amityville; Cametta and Berger Brothers both in Amityville.

I ordered the film on amazon as well not reading carefully that it was expired, so it did not work. I know that urban outfitters sells the film in store and online and these are new. It is somewhat expensive in my opinion but worth it.

The film by polaroid has been discontinued, however you may still purchase film compatible for this camera by a company called the Impossible Project, which makes film for vintage polaroid cameras. You can purchase them from Urban Outfitters, the impossible project website, or look for sellers on Amazon like I did. If you plan on buying the sun 600, just make sure that you purchase the correct film for this camera. Hope this answered your question! :)

There are a few places. You can go to a camera store or go to the-impossible-project.com. I buy my film there.

If I were you I would not buy this item. The film is expensive ($20 for 10 picture or more pricey) and most times the shots don't turn out. I never got a good picture from it! If you want good trustworthy Poloroid shots look into the fujifilm instax 210 or other instax cameras. Film is less expensive from b&h; photo and very reliable! Every shot turns out and has the authentic Poloroid look.

Ditto only I saw it on DealNews.I'm impressed with the camcorder but not with Amazon's BS.Thanks for making a statement that I can follow up on.

I have no idea. I do know I was not satisfied with it. I think it'd be better to get a digital camera and I did that. The pictures I took with that film were very disappointing.

I am wondering the same thing. This camera has been for sale on amazon since the beginning of the month and there were 3 reviews as of last Thursday.

Yep, Amazon will certainly stock it again soon. When I originally was debating whether to purchase this camera, they sold out quite a few times. A day or so after I had decided that I wanted it, they already had it back in stock.

As someone who preordered this camera and is still waiting I can say the problem appears to be with Amazon. The product is in high demand and it is hard to keep in stock but other sellers have at least had it in stock at one point or another. Amazon has NEVER had this item in stock. I have e-mails from Amazon confirming this fact. Check out Nowinstock.net and look at when other sellers have last had this in stock and compare to Amazon. Hopefully Amazon will find another supplier for Canon products.

Interesting question. I bought three rolls last late spring for an old under water camera....while on the trip the camera sprung a leak and despite my efforts to get the film out of the camera without exposing the film i failed. I know i have at lthe other two rolls sitting in my drawer. The tricky part is finding some place to develop that film. I did locate a walgreens locally who was able to develop it but i never got that far....if you are interested i would sell them both for ten dollars. I originally paid forty for three rolls. Barbara. Email is weazer2@verizon.net

The cnet video review was especially great - it shows a lot its features really well. I hope some more in-depth reviews come out soon. And I still haven't seen any reviews on the other cameras I'm considering, so I guess I have a long way to go. Of course, none of them are available to purchase yet. The frustrating part is every day I come across situations where I could use a camera like that! Oh well....

This camera with the 20mm pancake lens is out of stock EVERYWHERE as far as I can tell. Panasonic's own web site lists it that way, as do every online store I've checked.... except, as you note, for the ones who are taking advantage of the temporary scarcity to charge hundreds of dollars more. I understand it's supply and demand, but I still think it's slimy, and I refuse to deal with those companies. Panasonic pretty clearly underestimated the demand for this model. I think everyone who reacted to the Olympus E-P1 with "Oh, cool idea, pity the auto-focus sucks so badly and they used such a low-res LCD display" wants a GF1 now. Best of luck on getting your camera before Christmas, but my guess is it's a long shot.

Yeah, unfortunately that was something I checked into early on in my research. Really a bummer, because over the years I used it a lot, I built up a great set of lenses for the old girl. But I can't see myself going back to film any time in the near future. I'm on my 3rd Elph, and I'm hooked on digital!

I do not have this camera any longer, my son destroyed it (he's 2) and i replaced it with a Pentax Optio S1 which is just as good, if not better than the original. I would be honest about the camera, its best not to conceal the truth. Let her know you would like to replace the lost camera for her with something comparable.

Did anyone recently managed to buy an additional camera, and how/where? (likes of UK/Middle East, otherwise amazone USA) We need the extra camera for the 2nd baby shortly. Don't care about the sound splitting issue. Please reply!

i ... randomly... found my boys camera at the check out lane in "buy buy baby" i doubt it really is off the shelves but keep an eye out. i have seen them after the xmass rush in local toys r us stores too. if you can't find it on amazon try looking in your local stores. if they carry the item but do not have it in stock ask them to check with other stores in the area. usually you can buy it from them and have it shipped to your house or put on hold till you can pick it up good luck

Hey Sean,I am eager to see your new posts about your camera. Since the prices are dropping dramatically here, I will order one soon myself. On another site, someone said that one of the issues with people... not the camera is that they keep expecting it to do what a DSLR (I think that is right/ I am inexperienced here) does. What are soft images?

It is an awesome camera. I love mine. Takes very good close ups as well. Good detail. Best digital camera I have had so far!! Good luck on Ebay.

I really want this camera- the manual controls using the touchscreen look great. Has anyone ordered from Amazon and gotten it already? It says it'll ship in "1-2 months," but if it's already out... ?

Yes I also noticed that. I had purchased this camera last month and returned mine for an exchange due to possibly being defective (after an email exchange with Canon support). Unfortunately they then emailed me that they no longer had it in stock and didn't know when they were going to get more. They could only offer me a refund. They finally showed it back in stock but then I was amazed at the price! I even emailed them to find out why but just got a non answer (to be expected I guess) about how their suppliers set the prices. As you say, this price is higher than Canons, so it makes you wonder what they are playing at. I guess they don't want anyone to buy it from them...!
