Sonar stuck? How to reset an SX-70 Autofocus mechanism

My name is Jake and I overhaul and repair instant cameras! Want me to fix your SX-70? Send me a DM! Links below! In this video (produced in somewhat of a rush before I left for Japan) I show you how to check and reset the auto focus mechanism on Sonar SLR cameras. Effectively, to perform a "reset" on your Sonar, hit the manual focus switch, open the film door, focus the lens all the way to the closest position, then close the door and turn off the manual focus. The lens SHOULD return to the "park" position. If it doesn't, then your camera will need to be repaired.

For best quality, manually select 1080p quality, as depending on your bandwidth, YouTube may default to 720p - and YouTube's 720p compression looks like garbage ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Got a Polaroid that needs some love?
