Is "instant" 4x5 film still available?

Who makes is (I'm guessing Fujifilm), and what is it called?

Thanks, just looking to accelerate my search.

Yeah, there's still the Fuji FP-100C45 that is in the market, but the way it looks, not for much longer.

Thanks
Does this film work with a Polaroid 545i back?

...Vick

[BrianShaw]

It is pack film, Vick, so it will not work in a 545

[Roger Cole]

What kind of back do you need then?

[BrianShaw]

550, I believe

[BrianShaw]

I think there was Fuji back too, but I can't remember the designation. Something like PA-45.

Thanks. Found the listing on Freestyle and you are correct, a Polaroid 550 or Fuji PA-45:

If I had a back already this might be interesting but I wouldn't even think of paying $200+ for a back to use film that will probably be discontinued next week and probably also can't even be frozen.

Yeah, my web search revealed PA45.

So, my local lab charges $4 per 4x5 film for developing (E6 for slide).

FP100C45 is $3 per sheet ($27 for pack of 10). PA45 is $230 new, maybe $100 used on ebay. So, the holder is 75 to 33 "sheets of film" cost.

Not cheap.

My local lab charges $2.80 for 4x5 E6. Shoot less but higher quality!
