Polaroid SX-70
The folding single-lens reflex camera that ejected a picture which developed in the light.
Edwin Land wanted a camera that took colour pictures you could see within minutes. The SX-70 was a single-lens reflex camera that folded flat enough to slip into a pocket.
Artists such as Walker Evans and Andy Warhol used the SX-70. The film and the camera became part of the visual culture of the 1970s.
