Title: Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Please look at this image.  It was taken with a camera I picked up on eBay for $20.  A Polaroid i634.  I am shocked at the features this little thing has.  It can even go PASM!  I was looking for something I could carry around with me and still get so-so shots with.  Looks like I found it.  This was taken with no flash under a banker's lamp, freehand.

Looks like you picked up a bargain there, sounds like it has macro, as I'd need extension tubes to get my SLR so close, try and upload a picture of this camera it looks and sounds interesting. Nice shot also, with the biro complementing the batteries, thanks for sharing this one.

Thanks!

It's interesting - 98% of the reviews for these cameras rip them to shreds.  I started out with a little 2MP Polaroid and never had a problem with it.  Go figger!

Anyways... per your request
