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 75°F (24"C).
For
longer
storage, keep below 65°F (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).
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.
