polaroid have discontinued the sx-70 film as of early this year... however you have the option of using the 600 film which your camera can be adapted to use. this film will go on being produced for the forseeable future. instructions on how to convert your camera can be found at the address below.

Polaroid cameras were brought out, so that you could take a picture, wait 2 minutes and you had an instant color or B & W picture abour 3 1/2 " x2 1/2" They took excellent pictures, and I have fond memories of using one.
In this 21st centuary they are probably museum pieces, and if the film was available, it would be unbelievable expensive.
I get the impression that you have aquired a camera and would like to try it out, !!!!!!!!!

If you don't want to convert your camera to 600, and still want to use sx-70 film just go to ebay. There are people who have stockpiled this film http://search.ebay.com/search/search.dll?cgiurl=http%3A%2F%2Fcgi.ebay.com%2Fws%2F&fkr=1&from=R8&satitle=polaroid+sx-70+film&category0=&submitSearch=Search
