65mm
90mm
Ben and Justin had it figured out perfectly in my opinion. Whatever the poll here shows, actual supporters have ordered the 90 over the 65 at a rate of over 5 to 1. (quick calculation just now INCLUDING those that ordered both, if you subtract those, the ratio of 90 preference goes WAY up)
Nothing against 65, but it's probably too wide for most of us.
As for another poll asking who's already got a lens? Who cares? Many of us do already have one and there are probably thousands of similar lenses that will fit. The fellows did their advance legwork, now they get to breath a little while they wait to watch the $ go up. Congratulations on a well thought out concept, I am keeping my fingers crossed it happens.
It's nice to see those of us in Canada will get something extra in the box to compensate for shipping. But what will it be... hmm.
Good news, of course launched when I was on the road for 24 hours and missed "early bird" ( actually us europeans never get early bird due to time difference- black mark!)
Nonetheless you have my pledge!

Ben,
Have a look at my post on the Big Shot Camera here.

I think there would be a good market for 4X5 version of the Polaroid Big Shot, with a combined range and viewfinder and a focus mount for 210mm lens. Any number of 210mm lenses could be mounted and adjusted to focus at exactly the point of RF image match with a simple slide-in ground glass. Then the focus mount could be locked down with a set screw.
Your 90mm version could do Big Shot duty now with slide in roll film or digital backs if you can work out the RF and VF issues.

Something for Canadians? Did I miss that? Cool if its true.
Will the spring back fit a polaroid 405 pack film holder? I'd love to use this with Fuji pack film.
