Re: Polaroid pinhole

Only the very old (1950s vintage, roll film) Polaroid cameras developed
the film inside the camera. All the more recent models develop the film
outside the camera. With the pack film cameras (the ones needed for
Polaroid transfers, for instance), the processing of the film is
entirely mechanical so you don't have to worry about cutting off the
electronic shutter. On the integral film cameras (the ones that develop
in fron of your eyes), there is usually a motorized system for ejecting
the film and the electronics for operating the motor are a part of the
exposure system.
