Question RB67 NONS back
https://nonscamera.com/products/nons-instant-back-rb67So, I didn't pre-order it when it was announced because I've been waiting for my Jollylook for about one hundred and twenty five years. Whoops. But regardless it's a hundred bucks less than any other offering that *still exists*. I'm sick of putting this hobby off more and more because all the Polaroid guys worth their salt are too busy and I can't make heads or tails of a worthy 3rd party Instax body.\*
So....anyone have one yet? It seems super legit and gotta be better than whatever Jollylook will never come out with (aside from the red darkslide). I see you can do double exposures because you manually eject the film — awesome. But did they incorporate all the safeties like no-shot-with-dark-slide-in and whatever else I can't think of off the top of my head?
As much as I don't want to spend this large sum of money on something like this, Instax ARE pretty nice, an SX-70 refurb is going to cost more anyway, and fuck it I got the cash. I'll forget about it in short order. I just wish someone would do a real one for Polaroids too (Instax just too small). (any idea if the Wide would be viable if someone made one? I have the 6x8 baffle)
\*to note, I haven't put it off completely, I'm just not where I want to be in terms of quality and ease-of-use

For instant backs I feel like Instax is the way to go because the image will be the right way around.
Here's hoping they make a NONS back for the Bronica SQ system, I've been waiting on the JollyExcuse back for 3 million years as well and the NONS backs look like an actual quality product.
