Blimey! BLIMEY!!!
I thought things were getting out of hand round here as I’ve now got 5 cameras, but 3 of those are toys…

Timmy Toucan says:

Some of these are no longer with me, sadly:

Four of the Polaroids were given away as Christmas/wedding gifts for my brother and sister and their partners, one of my SX-70s now lives with Jonny in London, my Powershot and my Lumix found new homes on eBay, and many of the others have retired to the bedroom cupboard…

…Leaving me some shelf space to fill :D

where’d you pick up all the older ones from? ebay?
Posted 26 months ago. ( permalink )

Timmy Toucan says:

Yeah, mostly eBay. Some secondhand stores and markets too.

Oh yeah, and I saw an SX-70 eveready case for the AF models the other day; I remember you were asking about them a while ago.

a_bryden says:

cheers! i managed to get hold of a case in the end. it’s a bit tight though; not that easy to open the camera with it on.

what’s the ‘blue button’ sx-70?
Posted 26 months ago. ( permalink )

Timmy Toucan says:

It’s… Exactly what it sounds like! An all black Sonar SX-70 with a blue button (instead of the standard red). Looks cool.

I’ve actually just bought a white manual focus model too, which is on its way to me at present. It’s easier to fit the manual models in my camera bag (and it looks cool).

Did you know the Sonar SX-70s were the first autofocus SLR cameras ever made? What a wealth of knowledge I am…

lol. A blue button…Should’ve seen that coming.

Man, you’d have loved working at MVE – loads of kit through the door and you could pick and choose for yourself to a degree.

I think I’ve got 2 or 3 of those. Oly XA and OM10 at least. Is one of them an OM4?
Posted 26 months ago. ( permalink )

Timmy Toucan says:

Sadly not, but I am willing to open my home to any OM-4s that need one…

I am now going to have to redo this for a third time; I’m expecting a shipment of 5 more Polaroid cameras next week. *sigh* A G.A.S. junkie’s work is never done…

Love the OM-PC, used to be my one-and-only but the electronics kept croaking no matter how much work went into it…sad

Timmy Toucan says:

Oh man, that sucks. I have two and they’ve never failed me (unless the temperature drops below 0°C and then the mirror locks up…)

On the plus side, you can get them for absolute pittance on eBay… Which I recommend…

This Posting based on e-mail conversation.
include miniportrait flash , Lense Adapter, focus distance

hi there,
found your address on flickr..
was wondering if u could give me advice on ehich flashlight to use on my polaroid 402 ??

what is your problem.
what is your equip with m402 ?

studio lighting ? or small speed light ?
give more about your shooting circumstance and accessories :)

i got an polaroid miniportrait 402 and have been using it outdoors so far for poeple/portrait etc.
now it’s winter here in berlin/germany but i still wanna make use of the camera. same occasion, mainly poeple.
acctually i intend to take pictures at a wedding…. so i was wondering if you might have an idea on which flash would suit me need best..? also, i dont wanna spend a fortune on the flash. i paid about 10 US dollars for the camera on ebay so i dont intend to pay 120 US dollars for a brand new flash…
i thought about a Agfa Agfatronic 320 CA or something similar….- what do you think?

I usually use studio lighting equip  for miniportrait photoshoots.

400w ~ 600w monohead or other studio lighting. so the LIghting is same in  every picture.

But sometimes I use just sunlight (with no lighting)

when using daylight I measure the light using a minolta light meter. and fixed camera settings.

for example    F16  / 1/125 sec

and a speedlight.

I think ‘ Agfa Agfatronic 320 CA ‘ is good enough for a m402 shoot.

(flash’s Guide number 32 for 21 )

not a whole body shot. just bust shot.  I also tried shooting with a small speedlight.

If I don’t have a light meter, first I use my best judgement to guess what the settings would be. Then check by shotting the subject with a digital camera (In “A” mode) using the same settings as the m402. Then adjust until I get my desired results in the digital camera. Once I have the results I’m looking for, change the m402 settings to match the digital camera. The light sentsitivity of the m402 and the digital camera will not be exactly the same, but close.

(It’s alittle titious process, but it saves on film cost)

so in the end i bought the agfatronic 320 on ebay for litte money….still waiting on it and once i get it i will ply with it :-)
should be fun.
like your pictures a lot by the way.
i also recently bought a polaroid miniportrait 4×5...forgot the model number now…format is 4×5 and it has a built in flash….black with blue writing…with sonar focus….guess you know it. now, since you seem to be a little miniportrait expert-any idea wh the flash doesnt fire? battreries a brand new, it sounds like the flash is charging but nothing happens when it push the release button. i havent loaded the camera with film yet but shouldnt the flash go off without film aswell? any idea?

funny-i read the model name two days ago but forgot it already again :-)

think it’s 545 or similar….4×5 format anyways.
whatever, doesnt matter.

ja, the flash is charging, the LED is blinking when it’s ready but when you fire it there is the smallest light coming out of it you can possibly imagine…if i cover the flash with my hand so it flashes into my hand i can see that it’s alive but it fires at probably 2% of it’s power only….strange. batteries are new…
by now i got my agfatronic and it works with my 402 and luckily aswell with the …erm 545, 454…whatever….
i tested the flash to figure out the f-stop and shutter speed and took 2 pictures with the 402.  i took 4 different shots in one sheet and strangely the flash varies a lot….twice it’s too dark only once it’s fine….batteries are new, again….guess i have to do some more testing.. cant scan the pics and mail it right now coz i’m not at home for some time and dont have a scanner here i think…

another questions: do you know these adapters?

http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=350281680593&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT

i just got them today-do you know what the “1m” and “1,5m” stands for ? focus distance of the 402 is at 1,20m….so 1m makes sense, but 1,5m doenst sound like a close-up lens since you are further away…do you kno how to use them?
will only be able to test them maybe the weekend…busy working…

by the way, finally got the model number : it’s the 455…4 lenses of course

about that Adapter

Polaroid miniportrait, M402, M454, M403 Shooting Sequence

This posting is info about Polaroid miniportrait, M402, M403, M454 Shooting Sequence with lense cap.

see image below . use black cab. coke or any beverage’s cap is ok.

but important thing is. cap must black one.

or you will see the unexpexted red. blue tone polaroid. don’t waste you film.

*Sequence. by the top image. shoot 1->2->3-> each time. you have to change the

lense cap order. and you ‘ll get this result below.

It’s opposite direction of ‘ Z ‘

Polaroid Miniportrait 202, originally uploaded by Airchinapilot.

This beast is a Polaroid Miniportrait 202.

It has two lenses so that it can make two copies of the same portrait on the same print. This is so that you can cut it in half and have two photos of the same person for use in documents that require two copies. *later versions can do four!

If you cover one lens at a time, you can make two separate portraits on the same print. That’s about it’s only neat thing. I acquired it mostly for its pack film back which I intend to use in a future setup. A bajillion of these were produced for passport / identity photo-taking.

Other “features”:
– locked focus at 1.2m / 47in
– three shutter speeds: B | 60 | 125
– Three apertures: 8 | 16 | 22
– will fire a flash or trigger through PC terminal

Lighting info:
– Key: speedlight snooted with “bar mask” from camera L
– Rim: speedlight snooted from subject L high
– BG: speedlight snooted with red gel

I blogged more about this creature.

Polaroid Land Camera 250 + Close-up kit + Fuji FP-100c + SL-3 flash.

This beauty came to me a few days back, and I felt in love with it. I’m eager to see the film developed through it.

This is a Rangefinder Mamiya Press Super 23 with a Mamiya-Sekor 90mmf/3.5 collapsible (to allow near infinity focusing when tilting the back) with a 6×7 120/220 back. In the speedlight hood, the Voigtländer VC meter.

I’m amazed at the quality of the close-up kit setup for the land camera. In big size you can see sharply even the lens description…

Strobist note: I used an old “SL-3″ flash bounced to the right white wall.

Meet the newest member in the family: an old Polaroid Miniportrait Model 402. On top of it, is an old Agfatronic 162 flash. Photo taken with yet another old new member: Polaroid Image Elite.
