Hi all,
The Purple One is trying to convert the back of a Polaroid land camera to hold a sheet of film/photography paper. She has converted the front already to pinhole.
Any ideas how this can be done?
Thanks very much,
Ben

Thanks Prof, I'll pass it on. I know she had looked at a couple of tutorials, but they all ended up using Polaroid film rather than just photo paper...
I think I've solved her problem also, but she didn't seem convinced...

Having not done the conversion myself, or ever used one of those cameras, I can't speak from experience. The only thing I can think of is that she'll be doing all the exposure times manually of course. I wouldn't have thought there'd need to be a huge amount of work donw to the back of the camera - it's not like you'd be able to mod it to have a blanking plate to swap backs - it's going to be a single shot, download it, reload it and try again.
