While a collector can still get a $5.00 deal at a flea market or yard sale, professional dealers sell M60s in good working condition for approximately $40-80. Bear in mind this is virtually the same camera as the 210, which sells for almost nothing.

More Information

The Polaroid Countdown M60 Land camera was manufactured from 1970-1977, and is a "special markets" version of the Polaroid 210 Land camera, with the addition of a built-in mechanical development timer. It initially retailed for $59.99, compared with the 210 at $49.99. The Model 210 on which it was based was introduced in 1967, and was the lightest weight and lowest priced camera in the Polaroid consumer line.

The 210/M60 used a 114 mm f 8.8 two-element plastic lens, which meant it wasn't good for use in low-light conditions unless your subject was close enough to illuminate with a flash. Since the 210/M60 had no tripod socket, the users would get best results in bright light (unless he or she has very steady hands) with 75 ASA film (color). The only other option was 3000 ASA film (black and white).

The M60 uses 100/600 series land pack film, still available from both Polaroid and Fujifilm at a retail price of about $1.00 per sheet.

While the 210 is one of the most plentiful old Polaroids on the market (1.4 million +), the manufacturing run for the M60 was relatively small, at ~ 150,000, making it more difficult to find and price.

How much is a 1947 95a Polaroid camera worth?

The Polaroid 95a was produced between 1954 and 1957; the original Polaroid was simply the 95 Land camera, without a letter designation, and was manufactured from 1948-1953. The value of your camera depends on its condition. 95a's in average-good condition typically sell for $20-$35, less if heavily worn or damaged. A camera in excellent condition is worth approximately $60. Bear in mind there were approximately 900,000 Polaroid 95 Land cameras manufactured, another 500,000 Polaroid 95a's, and 250,000-300,000 95b's. They're not as rare as people sometimes think.
