Great film, just know its quirks.
I was really impressed with this latest version of Polaroid film. I've been using Impossible Project film for about 4 years, and understood they were trying to replicate the lost recipe of the original Polaroid film and were constantly updating to find the closest thing to the original. This latest version builds on where Impossible left off, so it's not going to be the Polaroid film you last used in the early 2000's--that recipe has been lost. You still need to shield the film from light, and let it take 10-15 minutes to finish exposing. The colors are the best yet of the new generation of Polaroid film. I did crank the exposure on my 690 all the way to the darkest setting, because in my experience, this Polaroid film tends to develop too light. That turned out to be the ticket for outdoor exposure. For indoor flash photography, leave the exposure on the middle light setting for it to expose perfectly.
Now if only the film didn't cost $20 a box!
