Got my Mint Flash Bar 2 in the mail last week and the little door to the battery compartment doesn’t stay closed :(

I just picked one up at an estate sale for $2. The viewfinder is dark though. I can't see through it. Is it broken? Also, where can I find film for this camera from? Thanks.

More tips videos please!

I noticed my first 4+ shots with the SLR670S all came out very dark - the thing was set on auto but I didn't realise I had to hold the shutter button down - could that be an explanation?

Hi so with mint flash bar and connecting it to external flash …. Does mint flash still fire or it will be there to fire the external flash ? Ideally I want mint flash in that situation to just act is transmitter and kick off the studio light

I am just wondering if there is any lighten/darken control adjustment needed when using flash? I’m a little confused about it…

I just bought the flash bar, with the correct setting on the flash, does it mean that I could use 600 films outdoors under daylight on my SX-70(it's a Alpha 1)?! I've only tried to use 600 films with half brightness on the flash for indoors, and it worked just fine. Please let me know if I could use it under daylight as well, thanks.

I bought a used one, and all the film was transported but the polaroid itself was only printed when I stopped pressing the button and a lot of pictures were heavily overexposed while some worked. I tried pressing twice which kind of worked, but not perfectly. Is there something wrong with the camera or am I making beginner's mistakes?

[marianogiusti]

can i see through the view find when i haven't the film inside?
because in my polaroid i can't.
I do not know if it's broken

How do you get the external flash sync to work? Have tried the 2.5mm jack but no luck :( testing with test fire button

So, can I just buy the 600 film and use it on my SX70? Just bought one from MINT but everywhere I go, say different things about using 600 on SX70, and here says it's ok?

I have one but I can't find the battery were Is it?

[hamzarustom]

what happens if I use 600 film without ND filter and indoor?
