Hi, I have no connection with the seller. Just pointing this out in case you are interested.

I shot a test roll with this style of camera back in the 80's and it was interesting.

Fuji GSW690 S500-600 in reasonable condition with a great lens (although not a Schneider).

Interesting, I hadn't come across one of those before. Thanks for posting 🙂 .

Saw a Fuji GL690 with the lens mount (removeable breechlock) with a Schneider lens mounted. Every variation of everything photographic has been done at one time or another. It was on eBay for sale about a year ago.

Any camera is fair game for modding.

It was also overpriced, much as Polaroid conversions tend to be, and nearly as overpriced as the Frankencamera posted here.
