I got a bunch of FP-100C for my Contax back, but I hate wasting all that space on the film. Anyone have any ideas on a camera that takes 3.25"x4.25" film and fills the frame completely? I don't want to spend a lot either.
Mamiya Universal! I enjoy shooting Fujiroids with mine.
The two lenses for the Universal/Press which were designed to fill the Polaroid frame are the 75/5.6 and 127/4.7.
The 75/5.6 is a Super Angulon-like design. Very highly regarded.
The 127/4.7 is a Tessar design. One of the most affordable lenses for this camera.
But also consider these:
The 100/2.8 is a 6-element Planar design, and at wider apertures, I much prefer it to the 127/4.7. The 100/2.8 just runs out of steam in the corners of Polaroid (image vignettes) at infinity, but that's hardy noticeable in indoors shots or portraits.
The 50/6.3 is a Biogon-like design, and it too just vignettes a tad on Polaroid. But I love it for its ultrawideness on Polaroid - it's like an 18mm lens on 35mm film! An example of mine is here:
