Looking for polaroid SX70 surrounded by Singapore! :)?
So I was wondering if anyone know any shop/sellers/yourself that can sell me a polaroid SX70. I might want a ND filter too!
My budget for the polaroid is around 190 SGD. Thanks for looking! :)
Answers: The SX-70 has be out of production for at least two decades. So you won't know how to find one in a store that sell new cameras. The same go for the accessories and the motion picture and flash bulbs. These are almost impossible to find too.
Your only source in this day and age for an SX-70 would be a place like e-Bay or a merchant who specializes antiques, especially photographic antiques. You might be able to also find one within a store that sells used equipment.
You could also try to place an trailer in the thesis on the long shot that someone might have one lying almost at home and is willing to be rid of it. That could achieve you one at a very low price since they'd not know what it be worth.
And yes, the SX-70 was an incredible act. It pioneered new discoveries surrounded by optics, chemistry, battery technology, paper and miniaturization winning pretty a few awards in its time. It's too impossible it didn't last but afterwards the cost to use it was exceptionally lofty and certainly high than film base cameras and today's digitals.
I hope this helps a touch.
If you buy one on-line you'll still have to clear import duties and perchance taxes on it. You might find an unscrupulous ebay seller who will hold out to help you "cheat" by register it as a gift but that doesn't other work - and it really upsets the local authorities if they catch you.
Of course you might find a salesperson in Singapore who is a moment ago tired of the camera.
