I'd be interested in such a camera. I think you could buy the material
(photographic) from Polaroid.
my idea would be to build it like a pop-up tent with some light proof
material. Possibly for weight use aluminum rods (square). TYou wouldn't5
have the fine rack & pinion adjustment, but the cost would be much less.
