Found this on youtube. This fella builds these things himself and seems to have made quite a good job of it.

I guess that there isn't much else to do during those long Australian summers?

It would be nice if he sold those commercially.

There are several people around the world who covert those old Polaroid folders into hand-held 5x4 cameras - they regularly get involved in nasty slanging matches on photo.net and other forums about who has the right to make them etc etc!!

Sorry, I hadnt realised there were replies to this. My emails must have gone awol 
Yeah I have a knackered old No3a, more 120 than 5x4, though I have heard of sheet film being used. The lens is a bit soft for most purposes though, mind you I've never used mine as I bought it as a wreck. Folding cameras are awesome, and if you can take out the old lens and there is enough movement in the bellows then a more modern lens will work wonders.
