"Well, I don't know. " Hi all, I stopped using Polaroid because it has a wide Iso margin that depends on temperature, you should carry along a thermometer and change developing time as the info with film suggest. I choose a easier way, I changed to Fuji instant film, since then not a problem, I can swear a exposure is rigth if the Fuji print is rigth, of course a exact E6 is mandatory, I do all my processing in a Jobo.
