Polaroid Image Pro Camera (free Shipping) Instant camera

It was launched in 1990 and has a different, more landscape style of film format, 9.2x7.3 instead of 7.9x7.9 square format of 600 film. The whole series has more exposure control possibilities than ordinary Polaroid cameras, except the later "2" and the 1200" models (which are simple point and shoot). This is the top model with full manual control. The body is quite compact seen the film format and has an improved Sonar system. The series was expensive, Although the Pro models are more advanced. The Pro model was first launched under the Minolta name, but it was built by Polaroid.

Most of these cameras have a plastic lens ("Quintic Lens"), but some cameras have a lens labeled "Glass Coated Lens" rather than "Quintic Lens". It is unclear whether this is a plastic lens with a coated glass in front of it or a glass element lens. Just to make it clear: Polaroid was capable of building high quality plastic lenses and even to coat them, these lenses age well. And keep in mind that modern zoom lenses have plastic elements inside. The Pro model has a "Coated Glass Lens", so this is a real glass lens.
