A Child's Touch

My dad buys me cameras at thrift stores.  Most use discontinued film, but occasionally he finds some real gems.  The recent batch was no exception, except...


He found a camera that uses discontinued film AND is a real gem.  The Polaroid 95A Land Camera used Polaroid roll film and was produced from 1954-1957.  The film has been discontinued for more than a decade.  Some convert these cameras to use modern Fuji instant film (probably my choice), but I found this solution for updating the 95A.


I've built quite a few things out of Legos, but I've never used them to convert a camera.  It is amazing what the human mind will dream up.
