Description:
The body of the camera is large and the extension of the bellows is significant. It weighs more than 200 pounds. A rack and pinion mechanism is used to adjust the height of the camera. Another one is found in front of the camera to adjust the height of the lens. A large door at the back opens in order to insert the film (a special type made only by Polaroid, such as the Polacolor ER instant color film). There is a digital timer on the side of the camera to determine when it was time to peel the film apart. The camera is supported by a rectangular base on four wheels.
It is still in working condition.
