"This film works great in all my pull-apart Polaroid cameras. It produces interesting and varied results with soft colors and an atmospheric quality. Overall, it is my favorite instant film, because it can also be used to create photo transfers and emulsion lifts. Five Stars! "

"This Polaroid film does a great job in average conditions. I like it for the characteristics it exhibits. Lets face it, I wouldn't only use this, but it makes for a good addition to my bag. Fuji does a masterful job, but doesn't have this kind of character. "

"I am so dismayed that Polaroid has discontinued 669 Polacolor instant film. For artists who create image and emulsion transfers from instant film, the Fuji product is unsatisfactory. The loss of this film will drastically impact this artistic medium. "
