I spent last summer living and teaching in a rural community in Costa Rica, and will be doing the same thing next summer (country TBD). While there, on multiple occasions would it have been nice to have a Polaroid or other instant film type camera for things such as taking pictures for letters or leaving pictures with friends and family. I hopped on the interwebz and quickly ruled out Polaroid brand due to expense of camera and film.

Any instant-film fans out there that have a recommendation as far as a reasonably priced instant film camera with reasonably priced film?
