About POLAVISION
POLAVISION
was a instant movie camera developed by Polaroid in the
late 1970's. The small rectangular plastic box contained
film (super 8) with a small lens and prism at the end
for projection. This projection was done through a
stand-alone projector/viewer that was developed by
Polaroid to help reduce the dense film viewing. This
film density problem plus the the timing of its'
release, with BetaMax and VHS launching at that time,
ended up to be a failure for Polaroid.

be able to use the POLAVISION cassettes in your POLAVISION system.
