What kind of battery for a Polaroid Land Model camera?
(this is my second question regarding this type of camera, thanks for all the information!)
I’m about to buy a Polaroid Land Model camera, type 350 or 450, and I’m wondering what kind of battery this takes. I’m too impatient to wait for it to actually come in and check it out, cuz I’d prefer to order one at the same time.
Thanks!!!
The 350 and the 450 use a type 532 battery which is 3 volts. The battery linked to by the other answers is a type 531 and is the incorrect battery.
The 350 and 450 actually use two 532 batteries, but unless you use the development timer, you only need 1 battery.
And there’s a workaround. Instead, I use a 3 volt lithium CR123A battery for my Polaroid 360, and put in some tape/metal to take up the rest of the space and make the electrical connection. CR123A batteries are cheaper, much easier to find, and have a 10-year shelf life.
