The Polaroid Supercolor AutoFocus 3500 is an instant camera for the SX-70 format. It is the international model of the Polaroid Pronto! Sonar OneStep.
However, the front panel of the autofocus-equipped camera is white. Also, the distance information is in meters when focusing manually.
Otherwise, the Polaroid Supercolor AutoFocus 3500 offers the same features as the Pronto! Sonar OneStep.
The Supercolor AutoFocus 3500 requires SX-70 instant film, which Polaroid no longer makes, though they are being produced again.
The Impossible Project makes SX-70 instant film for color and black and white images. These are also being sold again under the photo pioneer’s brand. For color images, you can reach for the Polaroid Color Film for SX-70*. The Polaroid B&W Film for SX-70* is currently the best choice for black and white pictures.
