We have fun with them but they are terrible, brown and reds and the developer almost never hits the corners. I have close to 20 600s now and probably half of them had film left or came with extra packs. My upcoming wedding has a Polaroid theme so we have been hitting antique and thrift shops on weekends to buy any we see. I have never had good luck with expired film. From now on, when I have a hankering for pronto prints, I’ll put a pack of FP-100C into my Colorpack II. So long, integral-film instant photography. Unfortunately, this used up the remaining bulb in the flashbar that came with the camera. Here’s another entry into a small collection of “Why didn’t the shutter fire….Drat” photos of my forehead. You’d think that after living here 7½ years I’d’ve done something about it. I really dislike the sailboat door knocker. My neighbor’s gable isn’t truly the same color as the sky, but this film sure couldn’t tell it. I shot the rest of the pack close to home. I was out for a haircut the fellow who cuts my hair works in this strip mall. My favorite shot from the pack is this one of a Panera Bread store, because the green corners frame the building so well. Compare these photos to photos from the other pack here. One last pack of expired 600 film lurked in my fridge, so I put it into my OneStep 600 (pictured) for a final hurrah. I burned through the entire pack in an hour.ĭespite storing this pack cold, it deteriorated heavily over another pack I got at the same time but shot in late 2012. Much more of the photosensitive material had pulled away from the corners, and colors had shifted badly. So I listed all of my integral-film cameras on eBay - except for my SX-70, which I still find enormously fascinating, even though I will almost certainly not shoot it again.
