I just got several pack of way expired 679 film. But I don't know which Polaroid camera I should use with them.

Henry, It only says using the film with polaroid back of medium format camera, which I don't have. I am wondering if there's any

polaroid camera that works with this film.

The Polaroid 403 Passport camera or the Pro-pack cameras use those films.

 

See http://www.rwhirled.com/landlist/landdcam-pack.htm and http://www.polaroid.com/service/userguides/photographic/miniportrait_203_403_ug.pdf

 

see for examples of the 403 images. I have the 403 and its great for portraits, parties and general experiements with polaroid peel apart.

Sorry this should show you a few more examples (the passport camera goes under a few names 403, studio

express) Be careful when buying supplementary lenses as there are different diameter lenses out there!.

 

There are dozens of cameras that take this film. They are called 100 series cameras or "pack-film" cameras. The folding cameras run from 100 to 455 (excluding 110, 120, 150, 160 which are the older "roll-film" cameras). There are also several unnumbered cameras like the Pro-Pack, Reporter, Colorpack and Big Swinger. The numbered cameras are better than the unnumbered cameras, be aware that almost all of these cameras require batteries which either have to be special ordered or the camera has to be modified to accept new batteries. DO NOT attempt to take photos with one of these cameras without fresh batteries as you will undoubtedly waste your film. Also, make sure the rollers or spreader bars are very clean and pay close attention to the directions on loading the film.

 

Here is a complete list:

I've converted a 330 and 350 to use newer batteries following the instructions on the following site:

It's easy to do if you have basic skills at soldering. If you don't, you can still find 3v batteries that will work in the

polaroid cameras like the 350, but they're pricey (around $10/ea). Check out the website and see if any of the

conversions are within your skill level.

i purchased a ProPack ]camera with the electronic flash at a Junk store for 25 bucks. well actually my brother got it for me knowing i love photography but i found corroded batteries in it and theirs no way to get to the connectors on the battery cover to clean that , but anyway i never used it as i never used instant film before and it looks to be just a point and shoot camera anyway with little control. But film is expensive and i cant blow anything up if i happen to get a shot i love so i think i might list it for what was spent on it

Yeah $25 is a little much for the pro-pack, as it lacks many of the basic features of the earlier

metal-construction models. Battery corrosion can be a big issue and if it's as bad as you say, it may also be

effecting the wires on the shutter end, or even electronics within the shutter. This kind of corrosion is not

caused by leaking batteries, but by oxidation caused by the gradual drain of low voltage current over long

periods of time. Basically, the air around the exposed bits of metal in the circuit becomes ionized and that

causes oxidation on the surface of the metal, including in the space between contacts. It can be cleaned off

with vinegar in most cases, but if the corrosion has also occurred within the shutter, then it's basically junk.
