Man I'm glad I found this thread. These are some of the best instant film shots I've seen anywhere!

Does a New55-a-roid qualify? Here's my 2nd of 3 shots today, and the only one with a full image:

This is a scan of the negative, scanning all the way to the edge (which I normally don't do, but wanted to show the whole thing). The positive is a little lower in contrast, but pretty good. My Microtek M1 isn't set up for scanning documents, so I can't scan the positive without digging out the manual and learning how to use it as a normal flatbed.

FP-100C45.

I believe I have asked this question prior, but perhaps it got lost in the shuffle---is there an adapter which one could use with these Polaroids/Fujiroids with a Arca Swiss 4x5 field camera and if so what specific??

Polaroid 405/Fuji PA-145 for the smaller packfilm (of which only FP-100C is still made) and Polaroid 550/Fuji PA-45 for the larger, out of production stuff as in my post.

AFAIK the 4x5 Fuji (like FP-100C45) is NOT out of production it's just not exported outside of Japan any longer, it's still available in Japan. I export Velvia50 in 4x5 and 8x10 in group buys (which was also wrongly rumored to be discontinued), so if you need any of that I could probably inquire with my Japan contact if they could also get the instant 4x5 stuff.

Also, Raymond, as long as your Arca-Swiss has a decent spring in the ground glass, the normal Fuji holders / Polaroid holders will work fine (mentioned in the quote). There no special adapter they I know of that you would need different from anyone else. Good luck!

These are Polaroids and Fujis I've shot in the past couple of months with a Calumet 4x5 view camera.

None of these are proper scans, just quick snapshots with the 5D mkIII. A good scanner is one of my next big purchases.
