MINOLTA INSTANT PRO

The Minolta Instant Pro began production in 1990 when Minolta licensed from Polaroid the technology to build a Spectra/Image film camera. A much rarer camera than its sister the Polaroid Spectra/Image Pro, The Minolta Instant Pro is designed by Minolta from the inside out with its own features, a Minolta lens and coatings that are specific to this camera, and manufactured to Minolta’s quality control standards. The design of the camera was so perfect that Polaroid soon after released their own version, the Polaroid Spectra/Image Pro, coincidently, with a near identical design.

On the back of the camera is an LCD panel that displays the current settings and the number of exposures left. The camera’s controls allow the photographer to choose a wide range of options and adjustments. It has the lighten and darken adjustment that is a common feature among all instant film cameras, but thats as far as it goes in terms of  basic features. An auto-focus camera, but with a manual focus override! It has a backlight compensation mode, does calculated multiple-exposures; you tell it how many exposures you plan to take and it will calculate the proper exposure for each shot so that the final image is exposed to perfection. It has a time-exposure capability which is made even more interesting by a built-in intervalometer. Want to take a photo of a scene every 10 minutes until the pack is gone? This camera will allow you to do that. In addition, the Minolta Instant Pro will mount the Special, Close up and Creative Effects filters that Polaroid released for their Spectra/Image cameras, in fact the Minolta is fully compatible with all of the Spectra/Image Pro accessories, which adds a little bit of fun and creativity to shooting with this camera.

This camera has been refurbished to our highest standards and is in incredible condition.
