Instant Films - Packfilm

Here are the films that are still available from various sources. Most are currently no longer being manufactured, but expired and well taken care of can still give you results.

Packfilm comes in two basic types:

Rectangular (100/660)

4.25 x 3.375 (image area: 3.75 x 2.875)

Still being made by Fuji films, and there is alot out there not yet expired from Polaroid. Most packfilm cameras and backs are this type. Because you can't put a rectangle into a square hole, this film will only fit into cameras not specifically made for square packfilm. Which most are anyway.

Square (80)

3.25 x 3.375 (image area: 2.75 x 2.875)

Discontinued but can still be found.

It can be used in most packfilm camera or packfilm back. Only a couple cameras, noted here, take this film exclusively.
