How I converted my vintage Polaroids
If you found this website then perhaps you too wish to dabble in "forever becoming a niche market" Polaroid film.
Good for you.
Newly added is the ever-evolving FAQ section which will answer most of your instant film and camera questions.
As well there is now a TRUE 100% full-frame Holgaroid/Polgaroid/Diana mod available.
What you'll find here is lots of information I've compiled for those interested in converting their vintage Polaroids to accept newer kinds of instant film or just a new battery.
It has been a long time since I documented a conversion; as such there are alot of little things that go into the cameras I sell not shown here. Like me you will discover the secrets of the perfect professional conversion when you are happy with your work.
As with anything involving flying metal, power tools and sharp objects, PLEASE take all possible precautions!!! I can not be responsible for you getting hurt trying anything found on this site.
ALWAYS wear safety glasses when cutting anything ! ! !
I truly hope my site helps you and furthers your own creativity. If you have any questions or comments please let me know!
