PZ 680 Color Shade

PZ 680 Color Shade film is based on our latest chemical formula and makes instant photography in the wide, cinematic Spectra/Image format as impossibly colorful as never before.

Early production runs of this material may show a faint horizontal line in the lower third of the image and small white spots in the entire image area (please see sample images below)

PZ 680 Color Shade images are sensitive to light during their first seconds outside of the camera. Shield the images from light immediately after their ejection from the camera and during the first four minutes of development to get stunningly colorful images. tutorial video / Film Manual

One pack of PZ 680 Color Shade film delivers 8 uniquely colorful images and works in all Polaroid Image/ Spectra cameras.
Impossible PZ films work in Polaroid Image/ Spectra camera models only. If you are looking for film for a Polaroid 600 camera, please find them here

    working out the kinks!
    016
    my local camera shop gave me two packs of this film to shoot some for them to display. i personally love the milky pink tones i'm getting, but i haven't gotten the some of the dreamy, vivid results like i've seen on some shots in the sample gallery. i know i'm still working the kinks out, not to mention the film had been stored on a shelf for at least a year! so i hope that with a little more practice (i've got a 5pack coming my way!), i'll start getting stronger images!

    Great colors and contrast!

    This film is super great! It takes a little time to find out to get the best exposures. But once found out, i was completely in love with the colors and the high contrast. Works perfectly with an frog tonge! Best results without flash. -Joep.

    Hi George, PZ film is for use in Polaroid Spectra cameras. The Button is an SX-70 camera, so you'll need to use this film: http://shop.the-impossible-project.com/shop/film/sx70

    the aesthetic of functional disorder

    At first I was a little irritated .. the film processing takes longer then usual. (I was close to accept the disgrace of been betrayed.) But after 5 nerve-racking minutes I liked the picture .. after 10 minutes I loved it and all its little (and big) imperfections.

    Interesting Color
    012
    With my experience the colors are what I would like to call stylized or in other terms not a big range. I have taken images in different lighting and temperature situations and it does not come close to the old film. Colors are way off but it gives it an old style look which seems to be big these days. However it is better than nothing and I do not feel like I wasted my money I just wish you got more for your money.

    I love these and their amazing quality but it is twenty-three dollars a pop for 8 pictures in all.. I wish they would include AT LEAST 10.
