instantphoto.eu Filter holder for Spectra/Image filters on the SX
There are
two sets of creative and /or effect filters for Polaroid Spectra/Image
cameras and nothing like this for SX cameras. It would therefore be
desirable if these filters could be used in some way on SXs. On the
Shapeways website you can buy an adapter that adapts the Spectra/Image
filter holder to the SX filter holder #113. So you need both filter
holders and the filters of course.
The adapter between the two is here (the link opens in a new window). I ordered it and it was delivered to me.
Here's everything united.
My SX670, the #113, the filters and this adapter.
Ready for assembly.
The adapter mounted on holder #113.
Spectra/image holder mounted on it.
All mounted on the camera.
With a filter.
I
tried it, no problem. On the other hand, I find the quality of the
adapter mediocre, it's printed in 3D, the file is in free use. Maybe
it's better to do it yourself if you can. I told Shapeways about the
problem, they paid me back a portion of the money.
And then, in
the end, you can do without it. It's pretty silly, I've
never tried it before. So investing in this adapter has payed,
otherwise I wouldn't have found the simplest solution:
A
piece of cardboard in #113 and the filter is at the right height! It
works, I tried it! On the other hand, for color filters that stick out
from the holder to the cell, you still need the adapter.
