POLAROID 4x5 Conversion !! A new project !!

[ViewCameraNut]

I think that your project sounds great. The conversions presently out there are a fortune!! If you can find an inexpensive solution you should do very well, and with no cutting and tearing off of the old back to boot! Keep it up, don't let ANYONE discourage you. Best of luck, Mike.

Please don't be so quick to judge my work in sort of swindle !!!
In a couple of weeks i'll be able to post some image of the first prototype, even without any contribution.
The reasons are following:
1- I'd like to patent what i'm doing and this is a quite long bureaucratic procedure here in Italy.
2- I've tried to make prototype in ergal but it was very expensive so i'm contacting people that make SLS print directly from my 3d models and this can be the right way.

And if you ask me why i've created an Indiegogo page project here's the answer: i have to understand if what i'm creating is interesting for people or noone cares about; being paied means also buy the final product or discount for buying it. It's not absolutely to stole money or to have "benefits" like you said.

Err ,is there the slightest hint of light creeping into the side of the right hand side of the frame , if so this is not a good thing .

I think the light creeping was in the film, cause is in the side where you lift the polaroid out, and not in the cutted part near the viewfinder as i tought before ....
I'm waiting also photos taken with 4x5 plain negative and 120 negative to see the results .. but laboratory is quite slow in this kind of envelope

Hi Marco, did you get the rest of the film back and was it light tight, apart from that it looks very positive

[Vascilli]

Wow that looks great. When will they start to be sold?

The site doesn't work. A pop up comes up trying to sell me something and won't let me see your site.
