Yes they are bulk but still if you need a picture right away and can't go to the store to get your pictures right away polaroid is still best. I'm going to miss them.

In almost every way, old polaroid cameras are inefficient -- bulk, energy, materials, waste products, picture quality, cost... They were handy and I benefitted from using them, but the world has better (and more responsible) photography tools.
