I actually haven't bought any Polaroid film for some time now, and now that my stocks have dwindled I am shooting Fuji. In fact, when I was shooting film professionally I always used Fuji for proofing because I preferred the colours. Anyway, I digress. TIP is a great notion, not yet realised. All those who were involved in the tests had a great opportunity to try these new films, and there are some stunningly beautiful results. Some people unknowingly bought film that was unsatisfactory, with varying degrees of success. I sympathise with you. Others, I'm sure, took a gamble knowing that the film was unstable and unpredictable. You should now stop moaning. I didn't buy any, but may do when the problems have been ironed out. Or maybe not.

Analogies? Well, if you bought a new car and it only worked sometimes you'd want your money back, wouldn't you? You'd want it to start every time and perform faultlessly, at least for a while. Maybe, but I bought a new iMac ten years ago which crashed and froze regularly, many times a day. They all did, and probably all PCs too. It drove me crazy so when it finally stopped working completely(just after the warranty ran out), you know what I did? Yep, that's right, I bought another one. Why? Because I really liked what it did when it worked.

Grumpyeye here. OK, I'm not at my best in the morning and may delete this later after a cup of coffee. And it isn't a big deal but does anybody else find the phrase "Great capture!" a bit annoying? Doesn't it smack of those knobend geeks on flickr who took a mundane sunset with their Dixons digital then went stupid in Photoshop with curves and saturation, then added a full moon. The word capture was never used about a photograph before digital, and one of the things I love about polanoid is that I never see it here...until today. Sorry, Urizen, no offense intended

TorySteller...good name, shame none of your pictures are Polaroids...»link

wish is right »link spanking in order, I think. And I love Monsieurpaul's sarcasm, though i fear it may be wasted on one so stupid(I really hope this is sarcasm, or M. paul has temporarily lost his mind)

And so generous to offer free postage!

I've just woken up, grumpy as usual, and been made even more grumpy by Zekki's ridiculous comments on this picture »link
Is it just me or is this pathetic? I know it's an emotive subject but I think this is insulting to a photographer, and to a parent...

Well done, what fun! You've inspired me. I'm making some drawings based on this footage with a view to building a similar factory at home. I hope to be knocking out 665 in a couple of weeks.

OK, the hangover's gone but I'm still pissed off. The noider's lineup has officially become a joke. Apparently you no longer need to have either a camera or a person in the picture, just some flowers will do...
I'm withrawing from the project on principle.

I'm with zveliakine on the noiders lineup. What's happened there, then? OK, it's nice to see everyone and their cameras but what about a separate project called "Yeah, I read the rules but completely ignored them", or "I had this knocking about and thought I'd bung it in even though it doesn't remotely fit the guidelines". Yes, I'm a grumpy bugger AND I have a hangover...

Greetings... I just got some FP 3000B, and have seen the neg used on here quite a bit. Do I just scan it and fiddle around in photoshop? Wet or dry? Any tips? Anybody...? Also, has anyone used it in a BigShot? I heard you could shoot in bright sun without flash...
