This year, we’re celebrating Sufjan’s birthday with a custom Polaroid 600 camera, created in collaboration with Retrospekt.

Featuring:

  • Artwork by Stephen Halker inspired by Carrie & Lowell
  • Sleek black and vintage powder blue exterior
  • Includes themed sticker sheet for personalization

Whether capturing everyday moments or documenting travels near and far, this camera serves as the ideal companion for any photographic journey.

This new camera uses refurbished, vintage Polaroid internal components from the 80s and 90s, housed in a freshly-molded exterior — built by Retrospekt and officially licensed by Polaroid.

Retrospekt’s refurbishment process ensures each set of camera internals is thoroughly restored and inspected to provide the foundation for a brand-new camera that captures the instant photography experience in its most authentic form (while also promoting sustainability through reuse of what would otherwise become e-waste).

This camera is powered by the batteries (included) and Polaroid 600 instant film (not included).
