00:00I look forward to the kind of photography that was always with you.
00:08Take a wallet out of my pocket, perhaps open the wallet, press a button, close the wallet and have the picture.
00:19It's one of the most instantly recognizable brands ever.
00:23I can't imagine a world without the Polaroid.
00:26It was truly revolutionary in the real sense of the word.
00:30A camera which you would use as often as your pencil or your eyeglasses.
00:34This camera made photography accessible and portable. That is groundbreaking.
00:41If we look at early photography, we had heavy equipment.
00:44You shot your film, put it in an angle, and you mailed it off to be processed.
00:48The holy grail is to press the button. The camera does the rest.
00:51Photography will never again be the same after today.
00:54When Edwin Land started showing his camera, everybody went wild.
00:58Everyone is bitten by this desire to take pictures.
01:01Every significant invention must come to a world that is not prepared for it.
01:07He was a scientist first and a businessman second.
01:10He didn't really care about money. He was interested in innovation.
01:14Land was driven by technology. It wasn't about ethics. It was about the product.
01:18For him, the Polaroid camera is something that society needs, and he must deliver.
01:24Polaroid was the Apple computer of the 50s and 60s.
01:27Steve Jobs would tell you that Land was his idol in many, many ways.
01:31Not many people can say that something is significant until after it is done.
01:36We'll see you next time.
