Polaroid Originals Color Film for SX-70: Capturing Memories in Style

In today's fast-paced digital world, it’s surprising to see how many of us are drawn to the vintage charm of instant film photography. The Polaroid Originals Color Film for SX-70 is a great way to start capturing your memories in style.

Developed for the legendary Polaroid SX-70 camera and certain models of the Polaroid box type 1000, this instant film provides 8 classic white framed photos with each pack. The format of each photo is 3.4” x 4.25” with an image area of 3.1” x 3.1”.

The Polaroid brand has a rich history of producing instant film cameras and film that dates back to 1948. Polaroid Originals continue this legacy today with products that are very similar to the original Polaroid film, but with a modern twist.

With an ISO rating of 160, the Polaroid Originals Color Film for SX-70 loves light, especially natural light. The film features a rich color palette with warm, vivid shades that make every picture looks different from the last. Note that these films work best when used with a flash, especially for indoor shots. The flash will also deliver better results when shooting outdoor photos unless it is a bright sunny day.

Patience is key when it comes to shooting with this instant film. Once you take a shot, the photo will initially appear completely blank. Polaroid photos are most sensitive during this time period; therefore, avoid shaking or bending them as they develop. Shield them from direct light and place them face down as they develop. The color should be shielded from light for about 6 minutes. The photos will start to develop anywhere from 10-15 minutes after they are captured.

Temperature plays a crucial role in how well the film performs, and ideally, it should be kept cold in the fridge but never frozen. It’s best to let the film adjust to room temperature before use, between 55-80° Fahrenheit. On colder days, it’s advisable to keep the photos warm in a pocket close to your body as they develop, while on warmer days, ensure they stay cool.

One of the most alluring features of Polaroid pictures is that no two pictures are the same; therefore, it is essential to think and compose carefully before you shoot. With a total of 8 photos in a pack, it encourages you to be more mindful of each picture, and each one of them tells a unique story.

If you're still on the fence about whether the Polaroid Originals Color Film for SX-70 is right for you, here's what some satisfied customers have to say:

John, who purchased the film for his wife’s birthday, says, “This film was perfect for our anniversary trip to the beach. The colors were gorgeous, and it was amazing to see the shots appear right before your eyes.”
