I had no issues, except cost of film, with an SX-70 I used for years when I
did plant quality audits. It turned out to be a great way it illustrate
issues to plant management - this was years before digital.

I never felt like that brand name was all that special. My
experience over the years was that they did well with instant films,
but the image quality was always mediocre at best. It had a use, but
a quality brand name it was not.
I had one of the instant cameras for a number of years. I would take
photos of dent's, dings and other flaws in our pipeline maintenance
work, for ours and TransCanada's references.
When i bought the Kodak DC25 digital in 1997 i could no by pass the
slow process of mailing in the photos and just email them, with
changes and captions.
They loved it, and that sold me on digital.:-0
