Oftentimes, what inspires innovation originates from the

simple question “why can't this be done?” On Christmas

Eve Day in 1943, Dr. Edwin H. Land, the acclaimed

inventor and founder of Polaroid Corporation, was

enjoying an afternoon outing with his three-year-old

daughter, Jennifer.

At some point during this afternoon, little Jennifer asked

her father why she had to wait to see the photographs

he was taking.

Dr. Land contemplated his daughter's simple question.

Would it be possible to create an instantly developing

photograph? With his legendary inspiration and focus,

Dr. Land solidified his concept of instant photography

over several hours that same day.

The realization of his concept emerged over several

years of subsequent research and development at his

laboratory in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The breath-

taking result of this experimentation—the world's first

instantly developing photograph—was revealed before

a meeting of the Optical Society of America in New York

City on February 21, 1947 before a speechless audience

of fellow scientists.

Dr. Land’s invention of Polaroid Instant Photography

made world headlines the next morning. The name

“Polaroid” now was forever synonymous with “instant

photography.”

Now, fifty years later, Polaroid commemorates the 50th

Anniversary of the advent of instant photography with a

numbered Limited Collector’s Edition of the SLR (Single

Lens Reflex) camera. The Polaroid 690 SLR camera is

simply the finest camera that Polaroid has ever produced.

Some would argue the Polaroid 690 SLR camera is the

finest camera available in the world. This Limited

Collector’s Edition faithfully recreates the allure and look

of the original SLR series, while integrating new tech-

nological features such as a digitally-driven micro-

processor exposure system.

We believe this Limited Collector’s Edition is a fitting

tribute to Polaroid's half-century of contributions to the

world of photography, and to the original daring

dream of Dr. Land.

Use the electronic flash for every photo, both

outdoors and indoors. The flash automatically

corrects common lighting problems encountered in

both environments. For best results, position your

subject(s) anywhere from 10 inches to 14 feet away

from the camera.

Maintain a clear path between the camera and your

subject. The camera uses sound waves to determine

the distance between the camera and the photo

subject, and any obstructions will cause your photo

to be incorrectly exposed.

Make sure to keep the sun or other source of light

behind you, or at your side.

Holding the camera steady, press the shutter button

firmly. Continue to hold the camera steady until the

photo has ejected from the camera. Release the

shutter button to recharge the flash unit.

Do not shake or expose developing photos to direct

sunlight. Make sure to hold the developing photo by

its white border edges. If the temperature is below

55° F, place the photo immediately in a warm pocket

or other warm location to develop.

While keeping the shutter button lightly pressed down,

the lens will spin and set, bringing your scene into

sharp focus. If the camera pauses briefly before

focusing the lens, the flash is momentarily charging.

After the lens is brought into focus an accurate preview

of the scene is visible.

You may preview as often as you choose without

depleting the camera’s battery. The battery that powers

the camera is located inside the film pack and is

sufficient to take many previews per each pack of film.
