Polaroid film

Shake and wait

Polaroid film is instant photographic film that develops itself within minutes of exposure.

The film contains chemical layers that produce a visible image without external processing—you snap a picture and watch it appear.

Though Polaroid Corporation stopped making it in 2008, the format has been revived by other manufacturers.

She shook the Polaroid while waiting for the image to emerge.
