Hi everyone,
I have a Polaroid which is acting up, maybe there's an easy fix or something you
know to correct the problem...
I got a Polaroid One Step Closeup in a garage sale for two bucks. I wanted to
play with it so I got a 600 film (the camera says it requires 600 Plus, but I
figured it was all the same). Anyway, I inserted the film into the camera and
that very moment the camera just went nuts. Some kind of motor inside was
activated and wouldn't stop. Actually the camera start spitting the film like crazy.
Do you have any idea what is wrong?
Can it be fixed for cheap?
BTW, this Friday I just found an Automatic Land 100 for $10 (gonna get the
battery for it... hope it works...)
Thanks a lot for your help!

Hi everyone,
First, thanks a lot for the help... I did get rid of the One Step and kept the
Land, got the film for it in a little store in Dallas (just cuz I didn't want
to wait for it to arrive if I ordered it on line...) Bottom line is I got a FP-
100C film from Fuji. ISO 100.
I also know that the camera needs a battery, so I built one myself since I
didn't wanna get the expensive original, so I just put 3 AAAs in a battery
holder and wire the camera.
So I took my first pic right... everything was working, the shutter worked,
pulled the first tab, then the second tab.. the barrels squeezed the chemicals
over the pic perfectly.. and... the result.. Nothing! Just a white print.. I've
tried 3 more times and its the same result...
Could it be my DIY battery?
Thanks a lot again and... happy thanksgiving. I was yesterday but you know...
