i love shooting instant film in any format--integral Polaroids, 8x10 Polaroids, Fuji peel-apart packfilm, and of course 4x5 instant sheet film.

that is why i am quite excited about the New55 Film project, which is in the process of recreating a new iteration of Polaroid Type 55 P/N instant sheet film. it yields both a positive and a superb negative, suitable for scanning or enlarging.

i figure there are plenty of 4x5 users here on this forum that would be able to appreciate and use this new film, so check out and pledge towards the Kickstarter that is in progress, and spread the word to anyone who might be interested!

if you shoot film, you need to read this article. "This is about communicating the importance of saving the legacy of film photography."
