Impossible 1503 Overview

One of the most iconic cameras to ever be produced, this Polaroid SX-70 Original Instant Film Camera is now available refurbished from Impossible. Differing from most instant film cameras, the SX-70 features a folding SLR design that is both compact and functional, as well as an aesthetically desirable item in and of itself.

The original SX-70 features a 116mm f/8 glass lens with a four element design and manual focus operation via a front geared wheel. An automatic variable shutter speed and aperture system links the f/8 to f/90 aperture range with a shutter speed range of 1/180 sec. to more than 5 sec. for accurate results. This refurbished model is fitted with a new Frog Tongue from Impossible, which ensures consistent and accurate developing after each shot by shielding the film from light when it is expelled from the camera. Additionally, as with all classic Polaroid cameras, this SX-70 utilizes batteries from the film packs to power itself, alleviating the need to carry spare batteries for use. Pairing the classic, tested functionality and retro aesthetic, this refurbished model allows you to capture today's memories with vintage technology.
