Pentax 67 Polaroid Back

[Maxapple88]

Hi,

I am considering to buy a set of two Pentax 67 bodies, one of them has a polaroid back, which on the Pentax 67, is permanently attached until a replacement regular back is found.

How hard is it to find these? Would you only get it with a full body or can you sometimes find them on their own as well?

I guess the alternative of the polaroid back or regular back bumps up the value of the set quite a bit...

kind regards,
Max

Also, if anyone has a spare regular back from a Pentax 6x7, please PM me.

check ebay. not rare. i have used those. it makes for a hard to use VF. not the best match for a pentax 67 which btw are GREAT cameras.

So you find the regular backs on ebay aswell, not just the polaroid backs? The polaroid backs were obviously bought in addition to the camera with its regular back so I was assuming there wouldn't be too may regular backs floating around.
