We have been proudly restoring the entire Polaroid SX-70 line of cameras for over a decade now which has become the work for which we're best known.</span> SX-70's remain the pinnacle way to shoot instant film, offering maximum control and unparalleled image sharpness due to their incredibly designed glass lens system.</p> <p data-mce-fragment="1" class="" style="white-space: pre-wrap;">The SX-70 Sonar was i<span data-mce-fragment="1">ntroduced in 1978, six years after the release of the SX-70 Original. It's key feature is the circular sonar dish which sits above the lens; this dish produces <em data-mce-fragment="1">actual sonar waves</em> which communicate the focal distance to the camera. Decades later, this system remains shockingly fast, accurate, and incredibly fun to use. The sonar auto-focus system can be disabled with the flick of a switch to allow for manual focus. This comes in handy especially when taking pictures through windows (the sonar ping will hit the glass and focus close-up!) or when making close-up portraits.</span><span data-mce-fragment="1"></span><span style="white-space: normal;"></span><span data-mce-fragment="1"></span></p> <p style="white-space: pre-wrap;" class=""><strong>Lens: </strong><span style="white-space: normal;">116mm f/8, 4-element, glass<br><strong>Shutter Speeds:</strong> 1/175 to 10-seconds (automatic)<br><strong>Focal Distance:</strong> 10.4" to Infinity (manual)<br><strong>Exposure Type: </strong>Automatic<br><strong>Film Type: </strong>SX-70<br></span></p> <p style="white-space: pre-wrap;" class=""><strong><span style="white-space: normal;">600-Modification ($60):</span></strong><span style="white-space: normal;"> This modification upgrade allows your SX-70 to shoot Polaroid 600 film instead of SX-70 film. There are two reasons why many people enjoy this upgrade: (1) 600 film <em>(600 ISO)</em> is significantly "faster" than SX-70 film <em>(160 ISO)</em> and allows more versatile performance in lower-light settings, (2) 600 film is <em>much easier</em> to find and is carried by most camera shops and department stores while SX-70 film can usually only be sourced from specialty shops. Please note that this modification requires the soldering of a new capacitor to your camera's motherboard and is a permanent modification; your SX-70 camera will only be capable of shooting 600 films after being modified. NOTE: <em>If a 600-modified version of this camera is not currently available and you'd like one, email us! We will be happy to get a build started for you right away.</em></span></p> <p style="white-space: pre-wrap;" class=""><strong><span style="white-space: normal;"><em></em>Recommended Add-ons:</span></strong></p> <ul> <li class=""><a href="https://brooklynfilmcamera.com/collections/film-instant/products/polaroid-sx-70-color-film">Polaroid SX-70 :: Color Film</a></li> <li class=""><a href="https://brooklynfilmcamera.com/collections/film-instant/products/polaroid-sx-70-bw-film">Polaroid SX-70 :: B&amp;W Film</a></li> <li><a href="https://brooklynfilmcamera.com/collections/instant-optics" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Instant Optics</a></li> <li class=""><a href="https://brooklynfilmcamera.com/collections/accessories-sx-70-accessories/products/instant-scan-adapter-v2">Instant Scan Adapter V2</a></li> <li class=""><a href="https://brooklynfilmcamera.com/collections/accessories-sx-70-accessories/products/mint-flashbar-for-sx-70">SX-70 Flashbar 2.0</a></li> <li class=""><a href="https://brooklynfilmcamera.com/collections/film-accessories/products/larkhill-prints-polaroid-box">Safety Box</a></li> </ul> <p><meta charset="utf-8"><b>Please Note:</b><span> Product photographs do not depict the actual camera that you will receive but serve to demonstrate an approximation of quality. All of our cameras have been carefully examined, thoroughly tested, and detail cleaned by our Camera Department. </span><a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://brooklynfilmcamera.com/pages/warranty&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1720297679148000&amp;usg=AOvVaw0NdKtmBQEernUNWj3nV1ps" href="https://brooklynfilmcamera.com/pages/warranty" target="_blank">Click here to explore our Warranty Policy</a><span>.</span></p>
