A new neighbor has this 1940's Ford Pickup Truck in front of his house so I had to take a picture of it.  I put a sheet of expired Kodak T-Max into my Polaroid Land Camera Model 150.  Developed in Kodak HC-110 Dilution B for 7.5 minutes.

Nice shot, Bryan! I assume Polaroid still used glass lenses in the late 50's. What size film do you use?

Hasselblad 501 C/M / Zeiss Planar 2.8/80 / Fomapan 200 in HC-110

Thanks Kai, the lens is a 130mm, f/8.8, 3-element glass.  4X5 film fits perfectly in any Polaroid roll film camera that took 40 series film.  You don’t need any modification, just open it in the dark and set the film in place.  It crops a bit and gives you the round corners so you end up with an actual image size of 2 7/8" x 3 3/4" (7.2 x 9.5 cm).

Still, that's pretty darn sweet.
And that truck does look like it's in a very fine shape.

Work has been crazy busy over the last couple of weeks, so I haven't shot much but managed to grab a quick couple of 5x4's just this past week
