Had a little fun ... A friend gave me some pretty old Polaroid Type 667 pack film, so I wanted to test it and find out if it was still any good. I pulled out the Model 100 back for the Hasselblad and fitted it. A few snaps with a test target determined that it has lost about half its speed (ISO 3000 nominal, ISO 1200-1600 works ok now) and requires about 3 minutes processing time as opposed to the original 90 seconds.
I then made a couple of quick portraits to test it ... https://flic.kr/p/oGK15v - with Sonnar 150mm @ f/4 @ 1/15 second (hand held) https://flic.kr/p/oEHyMP - with Planar 80mm @ f/5.6 @ 1/15 second (tripod mounted) Having too much to do today, I just used the iPad mini to snap a photo of them and processed them in Snapseed to a JPEG. A real scan with my usual setup and they'll look a lot better technically, but I kind of liked the texture and feel of them this way. I suspect there's a fun little project of Polaroid photos made with Hasselblad to come now. enjoy!
