Description
The Land Camera 100, or Land Camera Automatic 100 is a folding coupled rangefinder camera for Polaroid 100-series instant pack film, made from 1963 to 1966 in Little Rock, Arkansas. It is the first model in the 100-400 series of folding Polaroid cameras. This particular example features the ubiquitous "bellows" for the extending lens, and an automatic exposure sensor. This camera also features an all metal body, a dedicated. tripod mount, a fold-away viewfinder and range finder unit, and utilized the Polaroid 100-series pack film, which was easier to load than previous versions. The camera when fully engaged measures approximately 8" x "7" x 7.5". The shutter seems to work, and the camera has no issues expanding and folding away. The camera is in good condition.
