What Film does my Polaroid take ? 600 , Sx-70 or Other?

This is probably one of the most common question I get asked.

The first thing you need to know is which model of Polaroid camera you own or are planning to get. You can find this out by opening the film compartment of the Polaroid Camera and flipping the camera upside down with the compartment remaining open. 

There should be a sticker here saying : use 600 film / Sx-70 film / others.
