Not a polaroid, but I thought it was appropriate for a polaroid group.
I didn't really realize how many I had until I set them all out. I also have a couple of 600's and I have a 680 on its way.

The Yashica Mat 124 is probably the best known of Japanese TLRs. Largely a copy of the Rolleiflex Automats, it does not match the Rollei in ruggedness and build quality but its built-in coupled light meter is a better job than anything Rollei had ever done.
Gave a talk to Washington Apple Pi this morning and received the greatest thank-you gift ever: a Holga 120 rollfilm camera.
It is made of plastic and has many imperfections and no technical superlatives of any kind. But it's become a cult camera because -- like so many of us -- it has a winning personality and thus people tend to reclassify its faults as mere Quirks.
Quirks of the Chinese-made Holga include: a cheap, distortive lens that vignettes the corners of the frame and a poorly-designed back that leaks light. This kit actually includes a roll of electrical tape. The instructions urge you to tape down the two AA batteries that power the flash and to strap the camera with it to tighten the back a little better.
The group presented it to me after my talk and I couldn't have been more delighted. I took a seat while the rest of the meeting continued. Thennnn...
...I noticed that film was included in the box.
I am a weak man. So yes, I unwrapped the cellophane and tried to assemble the camera and load it up as quietly as I could. There was no way I was leaving there without Holga shots of the group.
Here, let me show them to you:
Oh.
It's on film.
I have to send it out and wait for the prints to come back.
Well, we can look forward to that, then.
Apple Pi went to the top of the range and bought me the Holga 120CFN, with built-in flash AND integrated color flash filters. Twist the knob up at the top and and Red, Blue, and Yellow filters rotate into position to color the flash light.
(I have just had a discussion with the friend I'm staying with -- a scientist -- about whether this thingy is Filtering the light or Tinting it.)
(I have some really awesome friends.)
I'm going to have a lot of fun with this (for the next 12 exposures, at least). The whole point of the Holga is to return to the days of fun, snapshot photography. If there's no chance of producing a clear image free from defects, you can dispense with the Lust For Perfection and just take some damned pictures.
Check out the manual right here.
Damn, I've spent almost an hour engrossed in the Holga FAQ, and a set of instructions for how to use the Holga lens on a DSLR, and a Holga group on Flickr, and...
...Okay I'm clearly going to be up for a while. You kids go play.
My favorite camera. For those that do not know, the SX70 is a folding SLR, yes SLR, that was Polaroid's first integral instant film camera. It focuses down to 10 inches, and produces beautiful instant photographs. The camera has been described as a miracle, and I tend to agree.
This particular camera was bought new by my late Grandfather back in the early 1970s, and I inherited it a while back. Unfortunately Polaroid has stopped production of its native film, Time-Zero. I plan on using it with 600 film though.
The Voigtlander Bessa that I've cleaned up and pressed back into action. It is certainly not a practical camera (the top shutter speed is only 1/75) but it is still capable of producing high-quality results in undemanding situations.
With a 6cm x 9cm negative and a focal length of 105mm, a tripod is absolutely essential in order to get sharp images at the available shutter speeds (T, B. 1/25 and 1/75).

America - what a country. Cameras grow like watermelons. They throw out some camera seeds, sprinkle with water, and cameras sprout from the earth. Everyone in America has so many cameras they just leave them lying around on the ground.

Another old camera to add to my collection; this one still has a 110 film cartridge in it, and it was only on the 6th shot of 24, so it's got some life ahead of it.
From what I've read, Focal was a brand Kmart sold until the 1990s. I would guess this camera is from the 70s or 80s.
I'm camera-spoiled now, and using a small P&S for biking just didn't cut it. This Topeak handlebar bag should work nicely both on the bike and as my regular bag for the S5.
My new camera finally arrived today! After a two week wait, now the fun begins, all the set up and fun stuff...
I bought this mainly to be an ornament. There's missing pieces inside so It wont work, but I thought it was pretty good for about £10!
