A friend gave this old polaroid land camera to me and I fixed it up. I'm gonna get a roll of film and test it out.

Takes 40-series roll film which hasn't been produced since Nixon was president.

Jokes on you kid.

Sugar is right, you can't shoot this camera anymore. You might be able to convert it to use other types of roll film but it probably isn't worth the effort. In any case you still have a nice antique on your hands.

The largest it will shoot is 4.25 x 3.25.....you'll have to change your film in a bag and that lens may not even be worth it.

Some of those Land Camera models, specifically the 110, have been converted to shoot 4x5, the 700 is not one of them.

LMAO Good one Sugar!! Get 'im!

As others have said: you're fucked with film unless you hack it up and convert to Fuji packfilm (also discontinued, but still available) or Instax Wide. This was a consumer camera, though - a dolled-up and rangefinder-enhanced version of the original 95 Land Camera that came out in the late-40s - it's not worth the trouble. I recall the 700 was somewhat rare as far as first-gen Land Cameras went, though.

Irrelevant, but I also recall Type-40 survived into the daddy Bush administration. Some have had luck with expired rolls that have been stored cold for 20+ years, but those rolls are unicorns and still really show their age when processed.

I used to have a 700 shooting 4x5. Easiest thing in the world to convert.
You're so anxious to look like a camera expert that you forgot to learn anything, what good are you?
>>
Y'all are dumb. Convert it to 120 film op.
>>
>>2991677
Just get an Instax Wide
