I don't know the genesis of the current Polaroid corporation, but they truly are developing new cameras. Besides the Zink line (digital camera with a built in printer), they have come up with a camera that looks and operates much like a smartphone, with apps and everything. Except you can't dial out. They were for a while just a brand, but seem to be making a comeback into the camera market. Vivitar never owned a plant, all their products were contracted out to their specifications. I think if they had stuck to their core business instead of trying to sell cameras too, they would still be around today. And Yashica started to contract out production way before the company folded up. PF |
