since you're looking through the lens of the SX-70, the view IS darker and at night (for night photos) it is harder to see. Polaroids are fuzzy sometimes, not all the time. It just depends on what kind of SX-70 you have. If you have one with sonar, than it is more likely to be crisp (well, as crisp as a polaroid can get) but if you have the first SX-70 with NO sonar, you will have to manually adjust the lens to get the shot you want, which sometimes will lead to fuzzy photos.
i wouldnt suggest using this method for 600 film in an SX-70. a "packfliter" (nd filter designed to slide over a pack of film) requires no modification or lighten/darken wheel compensation.

I hear that the ND lens filter makes auto-focusing more difficult (resulting in fuzzier photos?), and makes it harder to see the subject. Is this so?

you also have to fiz another 2-stop.
Buy an ND filter to cover the lense or just tape one onto the front of the lense

yep... it helps 2 stops.

so doing that will correct exposure when one uses polaroid 600 film?
