NOT FOR SALE
Alongside the 'prosumer' range of folding SLRs, Polaroid released a large number of plastic bodied, non-folding consumer cameras that used the SX-70 integral film. There were several lines that varied in the type and amount of features they offered, but fall into three distinct categories differentiated by the method of focusing:
Fixed focus - Generally known (in the US) as OneStep models
Zone-focused - Generally known (in the US) as Pronto! models; e.g. Pronto RF
Sonar Autofocus - Labelled as both Pronto! and OneStep models, but usually with an AF or Sonar moniker.
All these models use the SX-70 integral film, meaning the camera is powered by a battery built into the film pack. Many of these models were able to use certain accessories designed for the folding SLR line of SX-70 cameras, such as flashbars, electronic flashes and tripod mounts.
The Land Camera 1000 is a foreign-markets version of the original Onestep model, meaning it has a fixed focus plastic lens. The model 1000 or original OneStep models are distinguished among the range in that they were made available with 2 different coloured shutter buttons - either green or red; there is some debate among collectors as to which was more common. A matching electronic flash was also released for the Onestep/1000 model, known as the Q-Light. It fits onto any SX-70 non-folding camera model, but was cosmetically matched to the original models. Features common to the series of OneStep non-folding, fixed-focus SX70-series integral film cameras are:
1 element plastic lens with fixed aperture (103mm, f14.6)
4ft minimum focus distance.
Exposure compensation dial around electric eye.

Our beloved "Sillbo." Son of Weasel and Feebo.
1993 - 2004.
Polaroid, 600 Platinum film and OneStep camera.
Taken with a Polaroid SX-70 OneStep Sonar AF on Impossible Project film.
A collaboration with Lynda.
All the things we bought at the Highland Park town-wide garage sale, spread over our kitchen table.
We also got a dressform, a small milk-warmer and a total of 9 LPs. (not shown) All told I believe we spent $52.35. Pretty awesome.
The apartment was unfortunately rather dark that day so things came out pretty grainy, but you can still make it all out more or less.
Taken with a Poloroid OneStep with 600 film. Flash off, darken switch on. Continued exploration of Polaroid film. I like to pick subjects that will be enhanced by the unique color processing. This building is part of a complex in a Rockaway Beach Coast Guard Station.
one latest for this 4#day of the roid week
OOoops, No...I have to go now and I can't visit you till this evening.
Have a nice day, See you later !
The SX-70 is a folding single lens reflex Land Camera first produced by the Polaroid Corporation in 1972. It was the first instant SLR in history, and the first camera to use Polaroid's new integral print film, which developed automatically without the need for intervention from the photographer.
The SX-70 has a folding body design, a 4-element 116mm f/8 glass lens, and an automatic exposure system. The camera allows manual focus as close as 10.4 inches (26.4cm), and has a shutter speed range from 1/175s to more than 10 seconds. This makes the camera incredibly versatile, and it can be used in pretty much any situation, from portraits to long exposure photographs.
This type of SX-70 is the "SONAR Onestep". Quite literally it is one of the best model of SX-70 cameras available.
The main feature of this amazing model is its AUTOMATIC FOCUSING system. When the shutter button is pressed halfway, a series of ultrasonic chirps is emitted from an electrostatic transducer located under a gold plate above the lens. These chirps travel to the subject and bounce back to the camera’s receiver, alerting the camera to the subject’s distance, and the lens is turned via a motor to focus accordingly.
Don't think for a second that this automatic focusing is gimmicky! Simply put, its one of the most accurate automatic focusing systems ever made, and will outperform most new digital SLRs. It can focus from infinity down to 26cm in under 1 second!
Of course, you can over-ride the auto-focus and focus manually with the touch of a button if you want to.
The SONAR SX-70 models also features a tripod socket as well as a neck strap, to make the camera more portable to carry around. Most standard SX-70 models did not have these features.
This particular model is the rare "Sears Special" version. The Sears Special was a effectively an SX-70 Sonar branded for sale at "Sears" stores (a chain of retail stores in the USA). It differed from standard models in its color scheme, which featured a mix of both black and chrome look panels and brown leatherette.
The Sears Special was originally covered in a cheap "porvair" vinyl leatherette. This was removed and the camera was reskinned with genuine brown cowhide.
Newcastle upon Tyne, October 2008.
Sorry, I've been away for a while. And then distracted.
But I've scanned a pile of polaroids, ready for posting.
And I've had some great but freezing cold days taking photos.
Stay tuned...

Nothing like finding a perfectly working Polaroid camera at your local thrift store. Too bad the film will be extinct in a year, Unless....
You can only shoot in the morning, especially if you don't have a fridge to cool down your film. Shot with Polaroid SX-70 Land Camera Sonar OneStep and PX 70 COOL Impossible Film.

They are, I guess, congenial friends.
One was performing like he was padding in the sea on the ground, and the other was taking photos. And then, I was taking photos of them behind. Double shots at the same time.
