WTS: Polaroid 600 & 600 SE
Posted: Thu Aug 07, 2008 4:36 pm Etc/GMT-1+01:00
I have acquired over the past few years a Polaroid 600 SE with 75mm and 127mm lenses and a Polaroid 600 with a fixed 127mm lens (the same as the SE model but with non interchangeable lenses) with a view to using them for a specific project. Unfortunately I have lost the impetus to carry on with the project and am looking at disposing of this equipment.
The 600 is in pretty good condition but does has a shallow dent (about 2mm deep) on the top panel, this doesn't seem to effect any of the camera's functions. If it were to effect anything it would be the rangefinder but this works perfectly. The 127mm lens is optically perfect with all the various shutter speeds operating normally but have no way of accurately checking them. The integral cable release does stick a little so could do with a lube. The camera comes supplied with the removable pack film back.
The 600 SE is in very good condition but could do with a CLA. There are one or two areas that have small nicks in the black enamel but no signs of heavy impact. The 75mm and 127mm lenses are optically perfect, again the shutter speeds seem normal but cannot guarantee their accuracy. The 75mm lens also comes with the parallax correction viewfinder. This camera is supplied with two removable pack film backs.
I also have 4 packs of 665 film (40 exposures) and 3 packs of 669 film (60 exposures) which I am willing to share between the 2 cameras if they are sold separately. The 665 has an expiry date of 2006 but has been kept in the fridge. The 669 film expiry dates are 04 and 05, again they've been kept in a fridge. Whichever camera sells first I will throw in a Polaroid clearing bucket with film holder, all you need then is a bag of Sodium Sulphite)
Am looking for about £175 o.n.o. for the 600 (+ some film) and about £300 o.n.o. for the 600 SE (+ some film) or £450.00 for the two if you so desire. Haven't calculated postage costs yet but should be somewhere in the region of £20. I'm afraid I don't take PayPal so would have to be paid for by cheque or bank transfer.
Any funds generated from the sale of these items are going to be re-invested in building up my 5x4 system so a trade would be considered. At this present moment I have a camera with 90mm and 180mm lenses. Would consider any lenses to compliment these or a panoramic MF back or a spot meter e.g. Pentax, Soligor etc.
Haven't got round to taking any images yet but could send some if you're interested. PM me in the first instance.
