Both seem quite pricy to me, but I have no clue what they normally go for.

Damion..sent you a pm about the 250 I have, not sure if the message went however..email me!

[This-is-damion]

Rec'd and replied!

[This-is-damion]

And mark.  The 110 seems totally overpriced unless its been converted to take pack film.  The other one is a 180, which was the pro version along with the 195.  Id arm wrestle my own grandmother for one of those.  I think EUR 690 is a little high but its the same ball park for sure.  I can confirm the wife would remove bits of me.if i spent that much on (another bloody) camera.

There is also  another one for €399 (or offers) which looks even more overpriced since it only has the polaroid lens, and not one of those tasty Tominon's or Rodenstock.

I hope you find a nice one. I think it is cool when this sort of this ends up with someone who appreciates it, rather than getting trashed.

[This-is-damion]

Wow..does seem expensive.  I cant see exactly what model it is but i thought even the higher end 450 models would only go for around GBP60 max.  Maybe im out of touch though.

[Chalky]

you should be able to get a 450 etc for much less than that on ebay...I dont have one to sell you I am afraid but will keep an eye out...

[Aksel]

Just have to say, the 180/90/95 are totally worth wife removing bits from you.
If I could only keep one camera, it would be my 190. It´s amazing! 
If you´r not in a rush it should be possible to source one at way lover price that what ebay demands.

Damion, If you would care for a non-zeiss viewfinder model, I may have a spare, or two, or twelve in good working order.

Other than the Zeiss viewfinder the 250 is identical to the 100.  Unless you are using expired Polaroid film the 101 is just as good as the 100 because it will work with both FP-100C and FP-3000B, the only non-expired film available today.  They both have the glass lens.

[Adam Doe]

The 101 doesn't have the Scene Selector switch which allows you to open up the aperture wider in lower light situations. Also, the 101 doesn't have settings for 150 speed and 300 speed film, which also allow you to play with exposure, though perhaps not in the way that E. Land intended. The 100 has these features. As do the 240, 250, 340, 350, 360, 440, 450  and the higher end 180, 185,  190, 195 as well as some non-USA marketed models.

That being said, I've gotten good results from all of the models I've shot regardless of features, glass or plastic lens, etc.

Check the Land List for details on models. http://www.rwhirled.com/landlist/landhome.htm

I have a 100 with a 250 zeiss viewfinder. Has a wiring gremlin and the bellows are seperating. Not sure if shipping over the pond is worth it for a polaroid in rough shape

[This-is-damion]

Thanks for the offers, I think shipping over the pond will be expensive - these things are heavy.... Given the films limited lifespan  i might have to think with my head.
