The key takeaways are that the Polaroid SX-70 Land Camera uses sonar focusing to automatically focus the lens, it uses Polaroid SX-70 Land film and FlashBars, and it has features like automatic focusing in any light.

Sonar focusing works by emitting sound waves to measure the distance to the subject and using this information to automatically focus the lens in under 1/3 of a second.

Some features of the Polaroid SX-70 Land Camera include automatic and precise focusing in any light, even total darkness, and the ability to 'preview' the picture before taking it.

Polaroid introduces sonar


focusing-the ultimate in
one-step photography
That unexpected moment, that
periect smile, will never again be
lost whi Ie you pause to set the lens.
The instant you see you r picture,
just aim and shoot. With sonar
focusing, the camera sets the lens
instantly, automatically.
Now, nothing interieres with seeing
the shot and taking it.

(See "How sonar focusing works "


inside this foldout.)

How sonar focusing works


As you beg in to press the shutter
button, your camera releases sound
waves to the central part of the scene
(approximate area marked in blue).
The frequencies are far beyond our
range of hearing and travel at the
speed of sou nd (1 ,100 feet per
second).

The split second it takes for the


sound to reach your subject and
the echo to return is fed into a tiny
electronic computer inside the
camera.
The computer uses this time measurement to calculate the distance
between the camera lens and your
subject, then signals a motor to turn
the lens until your subject is in
sharp focus .
This extraordinary chain of events
takes place in less than 113 of a
second .

. .. echo returns to camera .

Film and flash

Features

Your camera uses Polaroid SX-70


Land film and FlashBars. Each film
pack provides ten color pictures
and contains a battery that powers
the camera. Each FlashBar has
ten bulbs.

New with sonar focusing:


Automatic and precise focusing
in any light, even total darkness.

You'll never waste a flash or film


with this camera. It will not let a
bulb fire when a film pack is empty
and will not take a picture when
all the bulbs on one side of the
FlashBar have been fired. Your
camera also finds the next good
bulb in a partly used FlashBar.
Please read the important electronic flash statement on page 39.

11

How sonar focusing lets


you "preview" the picture
To familiarize yourself with sonar
focusing and "previewing," stand
a few feet from your subject. Then
look through the viewfinder. Notice
that the scene appears unsharp.

What you now see in the viewfinder


is a "preview" of what the finished
picture will look like. If it isn't exactly
what you want, release the button,
change position or camera angle,
then lightly press again for another
" preview" When you're ready to
shoot, hold steady and squeeze
the button all the way.

Lightly press the shutter button partway and hold it there. You'll hear a
brief whirring sound as the lens
brings your subject into sharp view.
"Previewing" helps you to plan a
(If film is ejected, you pressed too
hard and accidentally took a picture.) picture carefully. For qu ick snapshots, however, there's no need to
hesitate. Just aim and shoot as described on the opposite page.

12

To aim and shoot


Bring your eye close to the viewfinder eyepiece so you can see all
four corners of the black frame
inside.
Squeeze the shutter button all
the way. Hold the camera steady
until the film is ejected.
Remove and handle the developing
picture by its wide white border.

13

Use flash for most indoor


pictures
Insert a FlashBar into the FlashBar
socket. Always do this with the
camera pointing away from you .
Indoors, you can take flash pictures
of subjects 10.4 inches to 20 feet
from the camera.

14

You'll get particularly good flash


pictures of people when they are
4 to 6 feet away and near a colorful
background.
Flash pictures should not be
taken where the atmosphere
contains gases or dust that may
be ignited by a spark.

Watch for your camera's


"use flash or tripod" indicator
When you're not using flash , a red
light may appear in the right side of
the viewfinder as you beg in to press
the shutter button.

If you see the red light. release the


shutter button . Then use flash or
place the camera on a tripod for a
time exposure.

It warns that the lighting on the


scene is not bright enough for
hand-held picture taking . Outdoors,
the red light will most likely appear
when it is heavily overcast. at dusk
or when you're shooting in a shaded
area. It will also appear indoors in
most room lighting

15

You can use flash


in daylight
This exciting feature, called
"fill-flash," can correct lighting
situations that might otherwise have
produced disappointing results.
Although you can use "fill-flash"
when your subjects are 4 to 12 feet
from the camera, you'll get particularly good results when they
are 4 to 6 feet away.

Here are the typical ways "fill-flash"


can help in daylight:
Strong sunlight can create harsh
facial shadows. Flash can fill in the
shadowed areas with even, flattering light.

Your subject may be forced to


squint when facing bright sunlight.
To get the natural expression you
want , take your subject out of direct
sunlight and use "fill-flash."

When the sun is behind your subject (but not shining directly into
the lens), your subject usually will
be too dark in the picture. "Fill-flash"
can provide the added light your
subject needs.

16

Indoor flash hints


Watch the background
To assure that it will be well lit
by the flash, the background should
be colorful and near your subject.
When the background is dark, or
far behind your subject, or beyond
the flash range, it will be too dark
in the picture

18

Arrange groups carefully


All the people in a group should be
about the same distance from the
camera. Then everyone will be lit
evenly by the flash.

To avoid a flash reflection


When shooting toward a reflective
object or background (mirror. window, eyeglasses, etc.). stand to
one side of your subject and shoot
from an angle to avoid a flash
reflection in the picture (see below) .
However, when the reflective surface is smooth and flat and is the
central part of your main subject
(glass enclosed art, wall hanging.
etc.), shooting at an angle may
cause the sound waves to reflect
away from the camera . If this happens, the lens will be set incorrectly
and your picture may be unsharp.
To avoid this, you can set the lens
manually (see page 28)

19

Daylight picture hints


It's easy to take beautiful daylight
pictures. Just keep these points
in mind :
In bright sunlight, stand so the
sun is behind you or to the side.

Move in close. You'l l get part icularly good results when your
subject is about 4 to 5 feet from
the camera. Then important details
fill the picture and backgrounds
are less distra cting.

Don 'l just wait for a special


occasion. Photograph your subjects when they least expect it.
Your ca mera is perfect for th is
type of shot- just aim and shoot.

20

,
Save action pictures for bright.
sunl it days Then your camera 's
shutter will work at top speed . And
for best results, have your subjects move toward you rather than
ac ross the picture

Give your subjects something to


do. Then they'll feel relaxed, not
stiff or posed.

21

Daylight picture hints continued

You don 't always need direct


sunlight to get great results. This
portrait was taken on a bright
overcast day. Since the light is
diffused , shadows are soft, making
it a flattering light for close-ups.

Include color. Use props. Ask .


your subjects to wear bold , solid
colors or pose them near a colorful background.

When shooting scenics, include


something in the foreground to
serve as a natural frame orto show
depth or scale.

Watch the background. It should


complement your subjects, not
distract from them. Keep it simple.

22

Close-ups
Your camera is designed to open
a new world of beautiful , exciting
close-up pictures. You can take
them in daylight or with flash and no
other camera does it so easi Iy.
With no accessories , you can come
as close as 10.4 inches. Pictures
taken at that distance wi II show your
subject at half its actual size.
For medium close-ups (pets,
children, etc), look through the
viewfinder and as you move in
close, lightly press the shutler
button partway several times to
" preview" the picture at various distances . When you see the picture
you want, just press the button all
the way.
To shoot at the closest possible distance , look through the viewfinder
and come closer to your subject than
10.4 inches. Lightly press the shutter button partway and hold it there .
You 'll hear the camera set the lens
for 10.4 inches.
Move the camera back and forth
unti l your subject is as sharp and
clear as possible. When it is, press
the button all the way to take the
picture.
To avoid possible discomfort from
the flash , extreme close-ups of
people should be made in natural
light rather than with flash.

24

Time exposures
Your camera can make automatic
time exposures up to 14 seconds
or more.
Keep the camera steady by placing
it on a firm support-a tripod is best
-and use the Polaroid Remote
Shutter Button #112. The tripod
socket is on the bottom of the camera .
To take the picture, press the shutter
button for at least a second ; then
release it. The camera will do the
rest.
For best re su lts indoors, stand so
bright I ig hts are beh ind you or to
the side.
Although pictures taken indoors
without fla sh may not faithfully
reprodu ce the colors of the subject,
they often have a charm and beauty
all their own .

25

Tips on outdoor lighting


Outdoors, your camera's electric
eye controls the lens opening and
shutter speed to let just the right
amount of Iight reach the fi 1m.
The electric eye works best when
the scene is evenly lit. It can be
"fooled" by uneven lighting as
described below.

Bright backgrounds: Wh ite wall ,


sw imming poo l, beach or snow
scenes, etc .
When a bright background is a
large part of the scene and reflects
more I ight than your subject. the
electric eye sets the camera for the
background causing your subject
to appear too dark in the picture
(top right)
You can do one of two things before
taking the picture:
move closer to your subjec t to reduce the effect of the background
(bottom right)
turn the Lighten/Darken control
toward Lighten (shown below) to
lighten your subject.

\)'''i' l
(Sett ing : 1 mark toward Lighten)

26

Dark backgrounds: Green foliage ,


dark wall . etc .
When a dark background is a large
part of the scene and reflects less
light than your subject, the electric
eye will again set the camera for
the background. Now. your subject
may appear too light (top right).

(Setting: 1 mark toward Darken)

To set the lens manually


A few special situations call for
setting the lens manually:

subject appears unsharp in the


viewfinder, set the lens manually .

When shooting straight on through


glass, it will block the sound
waves from reaching your subject.
The lens will focus on the glass
and your subject may appear
fuzzy. Screens or bars could
cause the same result.

To set the lens manually: Press


the bottom of the manual focus
switch (A) Then use the manual
focus wheel (B) as described on
the opposite page.

When shooting at an angle


toward a flat, smooth surface
(glass enclosed art, wall hanging,
etc.), the sound waves may reflect
away from the camera causing
the lens to be set incorrectly.

The red bar on top of the switch


signals that you've disconnected
the sonar focusing system. To
reactivate it, press the top of the
switch or close the camera. The
lens will reset itself for sonar
focusing.

Before shooting in these situations,


lightly squeeze the shutter button
partway and hold it there . If your

.,

To use the focus wheel: Look at


the most important part of the scene.
Roll the focus wheel all the way in
one direction, then all the way in
the other. Notice that the image
changes from fuzzy to sharp and
back to fuzzy.

Return the wheel to the point where


your subject began to look sharp
and clear. Now roll it a bit in each
direction until you're sure your
subject is as sharp and clear as
possible. You can check your ability
to focus accurately by comparing
the setting on the distance scale
around the lens with the actual
camera-to-subject distance.

Troubleshooting

Repeated spots: If a repeated


spot or bar pattern appears on the
picture, the rollers inside the camera
need cleaning.
It's best to check the rollers each
time you load film.

To clean the rollers: In dim light,


open the film door and depress the
light shield (A). Rotate the rollers
(8). Remove any specks of dirt with
a clean, lint-free cloth, moistened
with water if necessary. Check the
raised ends (C) on the top roller;
dirt can collect there too.
Should you need to clean the
picture exit slot (0), insert a stiff
piece of paper (like the fi 1m cover)
in front of the rollers and under the
light shield. Push, until it comes out
the picture exit slot.

32

Part of the picture is missing:


This happens when you damage
the film by squeezing the pack
above and below the yellow tab . As
you load the camera, remember to
hold the fi lm pack by its edges

Part of the picture is fogged: If


you press again st the bellows whil e
taking a picture, you may block the
movement of parts inside the
came ra. The next picture you take
could be partially or totally wh ite or
could have streaky light patterns.

Hold the camera as shown on


page 11.

33

Fuzzy pictures can be caused by ...


Moving the camera during picture taking . It is important to hold
the camera steady until the film
is ejected from the camera.
2 Shooting through glass. The
glass will block the sound waves
from reaching your subject and
the lens will focus on the glass.
Set the lens manually (see
page 28) .
3 The sound waves striking a foreground object and noi reaching
your subject. As you press the
shutter button, the sound waves
travel to the central part of the
scene (see page 3). Be sure they
have a clear path to your subject.
4 Taking a picture in dim light.
When the red light appears in
the right side of the viewfinder,
remember to use flash or take a
time exposure (see page 15).
5 Your subject moving during
picture taking. You'll get the best
action pictures when your subject is moving toward you , rather
than across the picture.
6 Shooting at an angle toward a
smooth, flat surface. The sound
waves have reflected away from
the camera. Set the lens manually (see page 28).

34

If the camera doesn't eject the


film cover or film
The battery in your film pack
may be dead or weak. Try a fresh
pack. If the film cover doesn't
come out of the second pack, the
camera may need repair. See the
next page.
If you press the shutter button for
a flash picture and nothing happens, all the bulbs on the front
side of the FlashBar may have
been fired. Change the FlashBar.
If the camera doesn 't work when
an unused side faces front, turn
the FlashBar around or insert a
new one. If it works then, one side
of the FlashBar was defective. If
you have any questions. please
call Customer Service (see
page 31).
If the camera sets the lens but the
film does not come out; or if the
camera does not reset the lens
past infinity (00) when you release
the shutter button. close the
camera then reopen it. The jam
should clear.

36

If the camera stops during a cycle


In rare cases, the camera may
stop in the middle of an operating
cycle. When this happens, you may
not be able to close the camera
fully. Never try to force it shut.
There are two reasons why the
camera may stop. One is jabbing
at the shutter button instead of
holding it until the film comes out.
The remedy is simple-squeeze
the button again and hold it. If the
camera still doesn't complete its
cycle, open the film door in dim
I ight. pull the pack out about an
inch, push it in again and close
the door. The counter will reset to
10. The camera should complete
its cycle. ejecting the top piece of
film , which will have been exposed .
The other reason is that the battery
in the fi 1m pack is weak. Test this by
inserting an empty pack if possible.
ora new one.
If you insert a fresh pack, the film
cover may be partly ejected preventing the door from closing . Remove it and close the door. If you
can close the door but the cover is
ejected part way. open the door and
remove the cover by turning the
rollers forward. Never try to force
the cover through the rollers without
first opening the door.

If your camera needs repair


If you believe your camera needs
repair, before you send it to us
please call Customer SeNice (see
page 31) and explain the problem.
We just may be able to save you the
time and trouble of returning it.

37

Care of your system


The camera
Treat your camera with care. Rough
handling may damage delicate
parts. Keep the camera closed when
not in use. The lens and viewfinder
will seldom need cleaning. If they
do, blow off any dust, then wipe
them gently with a clean, lint-free
cloth. From time to time, clean the
rollers inside the film door with a
similar cloth, moistened with water
if necessary (see page 32).

The film
Polaroid SX-70 Land film, like all
film, should be kept cool. If possible,
store below 75F (24"C). For longer
storage, keep below 65F (18"C). In
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 your film. Keep the camera
in a cool place (but not in a
refrigerator).

38

The pictures
When your developing picture
comes out of the camera, handle it
by its wide white border. Don't
bend, crush or fold the picture.
Don't cut the picture's borders, this
can ruin the picture.
The 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"
the surface with your breath, then
polish lightly 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 10 in.
to 20 ft.
Because of the special electronic
circuitry in SONAR OneStep cameras,
an electronic flash unit must have
matching electronic characteristics
in order to give good picture results
with this camera.
As of August, 1978, such electronic
flash units were not available.
However, it is expected that units
designed to give excellent results
with SONAR OneStep cameras (over
a shorter flash range) wi II be marketed in the near future.
Polaroid Customer Service will
have a I ist of electronic flash un its
designed to work with SONAR OneStep cameras and you can get this
information by calling toll free (see
page 31) .
Electronic flash units other than
those listed by Customer Service
may not give consistently good
results and may cause SONAR
OneStep cameras to malfunction.
There is a general rule that applies
to any electron ic flash unit. If you get
poor picture results with it, try a
FlashBar. If 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.
