Polaroid 600 (round top)

The Polaroid 600 (round top) is an instant camera for the Polaroid 600 format.

The body of the plastic camera is a bit rounder, especially at the top, compared to the Polaroid One Step (rounded corners). It also goes a bit more in width. There is an adjustable strap on the side of the camera.

It comes in a variety of colors, such as blue, black-turquoise, or yellow-dark blue.

The Polaroid 600 has the same features as the other cameras. It has a built-in flash that is semi-circular rather than rectangular. The lens, in the Polaroid 600, is fixed and the focus is also fixed.

For close-up shots, there is a close-up lens that slides in front of the actual lens. The exposure is selected by the camera itself and can be influenced with the light/dark switch. Taking pictures with the instant camera is very simple. Instructions are rarely needed.

As you can guess from the name of the camera, the 600 films come from Polaroid.

Polaroid no longer makes films. In the meantime, The Impossible Project has taken the place of Polaroid and is once again producing instant films for this format. Currently, the Polaroid Color Film for 600* and the Polaroid B&W Film for 600* are the current films for color and black and white photography.

The battery, for the Polaroid 600 is located, in the film cassette and is automatically replaced when the film is changed.
