Pink and Red Upcycled Polaroid 660 Sonar Autofocus - Cleaned, Tested and Ready for Fun

This camera creates either Color or Black-and-White prints depending on the film cartridge you use. Next to the camera is a photo I just took using New Color Polaroid Originals film.

The Polaroid 660 is the higher end 'Pro' version of the 600 line. These cameras have sonar autofocus (like the famous folding SX70 Sonar camera) and a flash built in. On top of the camera is flash charging and flashed charged/ready indicators. The battery for the flash and all the workings of the camera is contained inside of the film cartridge so there is no worries about leaking batteries.

On the front of the camera is a slider to adjust for when the background of your subject is over bright/dark.

The shutter button has a second button that allows a photo to be taken without the flash. Also, unique to the 660 is a button under the flash to turn off the autofocus. A handy feature when you want to take a picture through a window. You wouldn't want the flash reflecting or the autofocus taking a picture of the glass.

I have cleaned the rollers, lenses, viewfinder, shutter buttons/springs, photo print feed, and replaced internal components as needed. The Pink and Red coloring is a bit of Upcycling I did while I had the camera apart for cleaning.

The Polaroid 660 uses the 600 film cartridges. New film is being made by Polaroid Originals (they have all kinds of fun options) in both Color and Black-and-White prints.

The factory adjustable neck strap and view finder eye piece are both in great shape. The camera also has a tripod screw mount hole in the bottom for those special still shots.
