As you may remember when I posted a few days ago about the Polaroid 103 that I received it didn't have the battery required to make the light meter work. Well as it turns out they no longer make the correct battery required for this particular camera. However with my good friend Google at my side I was able to find a few websites that showed people rigging their camera's to use 2 AAA batteries. Or in my case. 1 3v. So I went out and bought the 3v battery that closest matched the size and shape of the EverReady that was supposed to come with it. That plus some band-aids and electrical tape got me a working light meter!
And it also happened that we were headed to Brown's Camp to shoot some rifles. What better opportunity to put this puppy to work! And get some traditional Polaroid shots!
This is a lot of fun to use, I'll be sure to pick up some more film for it shortly and really put it to use!
