Review on 📸 Polaroid Originals Color Film for SX-70 (4676): Captivating White Shades by Katie Owens

Revainrating 2 out of 5

I would be grateful for the full purchase price of the unexpired film

I bought a pack of this film to test an untested vintage SX-70 camera. Over the course of two days, I took all eight images in different situations; full light inside, sunny outside, cloudy outside, but with varying degrees of success. It was only when I took out the recycling that I saw that the package was marked as expired on 08/2018. This is the first Polaroid Originals film I've done, not sure if film stability matters, if three months matters or not, but really shame on Revane. In the future I'll go straight to Polaroid Originals, Adorama or B&H Photo. But to make this review more than just a complaint post, the film is what I remember from the 1970s. The processing is longer than Fuji Instax, for example, the color is softer than expected compared to the current rendering. Most of my pictures turned yellowish but then again it could be either my camera, expired film or improper storage.
