lint-free

a similar
cloth,

store below 24"C (75"F). For longer storage, keep below
18oC
(65"F). ln its sealed box, the
film can be
refrigerated (not
frozen).
Let
it
reach room
temperature before
using it. This will
take at least
an hour.
To
preserve its freshness, keep the film sealed in its
protective
box
until ready
for
use.
Then,
take
the same care
of a loaded camera
as
you do
of
your
film. Keep the camera in
a

The
pictures
When
your
SX-70
picture comes out
of the
camera, handle it
by
its
wide
white
border. Do
not
bend, crush, or
fold the picture.
Do
not cut
the
picture's
borders, this can ruin the picture.

brilliant pictures
made
with your
SX-70
system
are among
the
most stable
and resistant
to fading
ever
known
in
photography.
Fingerprints on
your pictures can
be easily removed. Simply
"mist"
ihe
surface
with your
breath, then lightly
polish
with
a
tissue
or
a
soft
clean cloth.
Electronic flash
Your camera was designed
to
use FlashBars and
with
a FlashBar it
will produce well exposed pictures
over the full flash range from
about 90
cm-4
m
(3-12 feet).
Because of the
special
electronic circuitry
in
your
camera,
an
electronic flash unit must
have
matching electronic characteristics
in order
to give
good picture
results
with this
camera.
See
your
Polaroid Customer
Service
office for information
on
electronic flash
units designed to work
with your
camera.
Electronic flash
units
other
than
those recommended
by
Customer
Service may not
give consistently good
results
and
may cause
your
camera
to
malfunction-
There
is a
general
rule
that
applies
to
any electronic flash
unit. lf
you
get poor
p¡cture results
with
it,
try
a FlashBar. lf
you
get
good
pictures with
a
FlashBar,
but
not
with electronic
flash, the
cause
of
the problem
is
the electronic flash, not the camera
or the film.
To obtain information and help
lf
you
are unable
to get good pictures,
review
this instruction
book.
lncorrect operation of the camera may
be
the
cause. lf
you
need
further
help, and before
you
return
your
camera for
repair, please see
your
dealer or
contact the
nearest Polaroid
Office.
lf
you write about
a
problem, please
state the camera model, explain
the problem
and,
if
possible, enclose sample
pictures. lnclude your
return address.
