Removing the pictures
To remove one or more pictures, open the removal door as shown. Pictures can be removed and reinserted as desired. Caution: Store only Polaroid 500 instant color film pictures in the storage compartment. Before loading a new pack of film, remove all the pictures and the film cover. Then close the picture removal door.
Full storage compartment
When the storage compartment is full, the camera will not allow you to take another picture until you remove the pictures. As a reminder, the red light will flash and the camera will sound a two-tone beep.
Picture counter
The picture counter counts down, indicating the number of pictures left, and displays a red zero as soon as you take your last picture.
Empty film pack
The camera will not function when the film pack is empty. The red light will flash and the camera will beep when you take the last picture, and when you press the shutter button or open the camera. To remove an empty film pack, open the film door and slide the pack out by its edges.
Brightness override
For most situations, leave the control at the normal (center) setting. To take a lighter picture, slide the control to the right, towards the white-dot arrow. To take a darker picture, slide the control to the left, towards the black-dot arrow.
Use this control to reshoot a picture to make it lighter or darker.
Be sure to reset the control to the normal setting before taking your next picture. (When you close the camera, the control will automatically be reset to normal.) The control cannot be set when the camera is closed.
