Initially produced in 1969, the '''Colorpack 2''' was the first rigid, plastic bodied, colour film capable [[Polaroid]] to retail at consumer range prices, and set a precedent for many, many similar models that followed. The Colorpack is designed only for 100 series packfilm.
 
 
 
Focusing is carried out by turning the distance-marked front lens element; unlike the original [[Polaroid 100-400 series]] packfilm cameras, this series features no rangefinder mechanism. As an improvement over the original folding series however, there is no need to cock the shutter after each exposure. The Colorpack 2 also takes generic 'blue dot' flashcubes, with a wind-up hot shoe and small plastic diffuser set to one side of the lens.
 
 
 
Early versions of this model featured a glass lens, but most were plastic.
