Fotodyne Polaroid DC-34

This Polaroid DC-34 camera from Fotodyne Incorporated was integrated into a Fotodyne imaging system, commonly used in life sciences laboratories.

Fotodyne was known for producing equipment that allowed researchers to document electrophoresis gels and other experimental outcomes. This camera would have been used to take instant photos of the gels, capturing the separated DNA, RNA, or protein bands for further analysis. These images were crucial for record-keeping and data analysis before the widespread adoption of digital imaging. The camera played a key role in ensuring that researchers could document their experiments accurately and efficiently.

The camera has not been tested.
