Polaroids (and Fujiroids)

[unixrevolution]

Looks like the Type 55 I got on eBay (expired 1983) still works great. Only needed one stop of correction for age.

I call it "Top Rack Only."

Holy crap, I love it.

Fuji 100 color, 4x5.
Stripped the back and scanned what was left.

I have a Polaroid 405 film holder. will this work with the Fuji FP-3000 film? Does the whole thing slide in the back of my Sinar F2 4x5 like a normal film holder?

The Polaroid 405 back is designed to attach via locking sliders (Graflok back) and not slide in under the ground glass. But yes, the Fuji FP-3000 pack film will fit in the holder.

Thanks, Braca. High praise! Every time I see your excellent 809 work it reminds me I need to shoot the box I have. What am I waiting for?

+1 for the second, and the first is growing on me...

Thanks.
