    2. Hold the camera stable, especially at low light levels and press the button.
    3. Immediately shield the image from light as the camera ejects it, the first split seconds are crucial!
    4. Protect the picture from light for up to 3 minutes while it develops (let it develop upside down).
    5. Turn the picture over and enjoy your Impossible instant picture. In order to enhance the picture quality and minimize unwanted aging alterations please apply our recommended Dry Age procedure.

Great Book.

I haven't finished it yet but it's been a great read so far. Nothing too dense but very informative. I love how it not only covers the history of Polaroid but also some of Land's personal life. A chapter is also dedicated to the history and founding of The Impossible Project.
