How Does a Polaroid Camera Work?

The video explores the fascinating chemical process behind Polaroid cameras, which allow instant photo development. It explains how silver halide crystals in the film react to light, creating a negative image that is later converted to a positive. The video also covers the process for instant color film, which uses layers sensitive to primary colors and complementary dyes. Edwin Land's innovation in integrating film development into the camera is highlighted, along with the artistic appeal of Polaroid images that persists despite the rise of digital photography.
