more Retro...

I recently got another camera off of ebay. It's another Polaroid camera, but this time rather retro. It's an Automatic 100, produced between 1963 and 1966 taking 3.25x4.25 inch instant pictures using '100 series' pack film (which Fuji still make, even though Polaroid themselves couldn't continue).

Thanks go out to Option8 for his website describing how to refurbish the camera.

Automatic 100/1This thing is wonderful - it's a folding camera, and it gets some great comments - especially when the pictures it produces appear! The first picture was this one.
