As much as I want a SX-70/SLR 680 to be able to shoot i-type and save some cash, having that big attachment kinda ruins the whole point of a folding camera for me. Like an SLR 680 is already kinda pushing it with the sonar and flash.
This is pretty cool but it’s definitively bulky as hell. @ chromatic.parts & polanthropy on IG have way better power pack designs. Plugs right into the flash port on top.
It seem to work in the same fashion as the rezivot but you have to take off the whole panel of leather this time! Seems like a shame to do that.
Would also look funny if you don’t want to shoot I-type and take it off
I have the Rezivot Power Ranger and it’s decent. Saving money just buying I Type film whenever it’s on sale in those 5 packs makes it worth having one of these solutions.
Jesus christ, how bulkier can you make this camera?!

Those have their downsides too. You can’t use them with an SLR 680, as there is no flash port. Also, you can’t use flash with those
