Gives Nice Crisp Images

The Fujifilm equivalent dries nice and flat. Buy some before it's gone for good and press it between some heavy books.

Good for normal use, but...

"I purchased 690 to use primarily for a series of image transfers. The good news is the speed and color rendition of the film when used normally is great.

"I use this film with an Automatic 100. Originally I had loaded 669 film for the fall months and noticed a lot of unexpected changes in the exposure. This 690 does a much better job in cold weather and I don't even need to use a cold clip to get the job done.
