Q: 8. I have a Polaroid 690, and the original discontinued Polaroid film created gorgeous vibrant color saturated and sharp images. Every re-release of the Polaroid film I've tried over the years claims "authentic" Polaroid color, but it's just washed out and shifted to green/yellow. Does this film really live up to original gorgeous Polaroid color?

A: The following is a reply listed on the manufacturer's website in their "Information" (FAQ) section: When Polaroid wound down their analog instant photography business in 2008, a number of chemical suppliers that existed solely to provide Polaroid with chemistry for film production went out of business. And over the course of the last decade some of the chemistry used in film production became unavailable for commercial use. The Impossible Project faced the challenge of reinventing analog instant photography with the chemistry available, and over the past nine years has been gradually improving the processing and quality of instant film. So while we still aren’t back at the 5 minute development time (yet!), that you may remember from back in the day, the new Polaroid color film is the best to come out of the Enschede factory since Impossible took it over in 2008 - with improved sharpness and definition, development time down to 15 minutes and the same quirky, magical Polaroid aesthetic that people have always loved.

Q: 9. will this work on a Polaroid Sun 660 camera?

A: Yes. The Polaroid Sun 660 uses 600 film.

Q: 10. whats the difference between the film that has a battery and the polaroid film that doesn't ? is it just that you can only use this with a camera by polaroid?

A: The Polaroid Color i-Type Instant Film (5-Pack, 40 Exposures) is compatible with Polaroid i-Type cameras, including the OneStep 2, OneStep+, the Polaroid Now, and the Polaroid Lab. Because it is battery-free, it won’t work for vintage Polaroid cameras.
