When you lose both electricity and water, the only thing that is capable of going on producing new output is a Polaroid. Digital cameras are completely useless; even the most mechanical M cannot produce output, since you can't develop film without huge volumes of water, something which goes bye-bye in tandem with the electricity (since pumps don't operate). Makes you think a little.
