Instant camera hobbyist Brandon Ong, 32, is the proud owner of a collection spanning the history of Polaroids - from Polaroid's Model 95, the first instant camera to be sold commercially in 1948, to the OneStep Plus camera by Polaroid Originals which came out this year.
Since 2013, Mr Ong has amassed about 70 instant cameras, which he buys from local and overseas collectors, online retailers and flea markets such as the old Sungei Road Thieves' Market.
