Lightest Polaroid camera available?

[adam_dynamic]

Slightly odd question but I thought I'd ask it anyway. I'm working on a project that needs an 'old school' polaroid camera to shoot using Impossible Project film (so either 600 type or SX-70).

Of the cameras that shoot these films, can anyone recommend what would be the lightest (i.e. lowest weight) camera? I've looked on eBay at various models and some seem to be bigger/heavier than others. Without knowing a lot about them I'd just be guessing as to which was the lightest though.

I don't need a flash or any fancy accessories (just the ability to shoot onto the film) so the low weight is the most important feature. Any assistance on this (again, slightly strange) request would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Adam

There is the old Polaroid OneStep they started manufacturing through the 80's which is pretty light, I've got the 'The Button' version and it was my first Polaroid camera. It's light but also a little bulky with it being a rigid box type camera. The light weight comes from the all plastic contruction (including the fixed focus lens) but it's pretty fun to shoot with.

Trust me, you won't be happy with that though and will want something else pretty soon after. I went down the same road and ended up with a SX-70 Model 2 which I love!

As above, the SX70 is probably the lightest and least bulky as it folds down. It's also the most expensive :0)

I have a Colour Swinger II which is very light but it takes Fuji film.
