Review on 🎞️ Premium Polaroid Originals B&W Film for Polaroid 600 Cameras - High-Quality Instant Photography Essentials (Model: 4671) by Chase Arellano

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great film but learning curve

This is my second instant camera that I bought on ebay, my first was a Polaroid Land Camera with Peel Apart film. I have a newer 600 camera replacing my floor cam since Fuji stopped making film in 2016. I've never tried impossible film, and I was a kid when I was doing Polaroid 600 film, but still. This film needs a lot of light to get a great picture, but once the picture is ejected it needs to be protected from light for a few minutes. Film development can take up to 20 minutes. Flash is useless indoors, I get a lot of underexposed pictures. It takes some time to learn how to make this film, but it produces beautifully retro images. The film is expensive, but it's also available immediately and includes development costs. For comparison, 12 frames out of 120 is $22 (film + development + prints) so it's pretty much the same. It's a great film and the only thing better is the Fuji Instax film. Not sure how long the images will last or if this film has a tendency to fade, but generally digital film lasts longer so it's a great film to invest in if you need instant photography. If you don't, I would recommend a 35mm camera.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Tradeable
