These relatively cheap consumer models from Polaroid were plastic-bodied (non-folding) cameras of the late 1960s-mid 1970s. Generally, they have plastic lenses with 1-3 elements. Most have front element distance scale focusing, though some are fixed focus. Most models use 100 series pack film (currently only made by Fujifilm), a few use the smaller 80 series (no longer in production), and some are able to use both. Many models exist in this series; often they are very similar and were simply renamed for different markets.
