Polaroid, NPC, Nikon Proback Camera-accessoires

Offered is a professional NPC Proback by Forscher, a specialized Polaroid film back designed for Nikon SLR cameras. This high-quality accessory allowed professional photographers to take instant test shots on Polaroid pack film to verify lighting, composition, and exposure before committing to expensive 35mm film. Manufactured by the NPC Photo Division in Newton, Massachusetts, this unit is a hallmark of the pre-digital professional workflow.

The Proback features a precision-engineered optical fiber plate that transfers the image from the camera's film plane directly to the Polaroid film, ensuring that the instant image accurately reflects what the final 35mm frame will capture.
