Polaroid SX-70 Arrives

Shaun on Apr 9th 2008

The Hull University Photography Society has been donated a camera.

We are now the proud owners of a Polaroid SX-70!

This camera was first released in 1972 and aimed at high end photographers with a wad.
The film contains a flat battery which power the camera, electronics and flash. A typical flash
would be an external unit containing five single use bulbs.

Many thanks to a certain Rob Miles who allowed me to take this instead of adding it to the rest
of the clutter in his office. I/we hereby donate it to HUPS.

    Awesome find bro! Looks to be in very good shape. I like the woodgrain way better than the 70’s orange color I see on most of them. Congrats!
