Stom, Polaroid P/N Type 55 film is the type that you must expose for either the negative or the print. It is an either or proposition. The Polaroid P/N pack film (the number of which I can't remember) is not an either or proposition. The print and negative will match. James Johnston james

I've just gotten into pinhole photography and started using Polaroid 4x5 T-55 film. It works wonderfully with my Santa Barbara wide angle camera. It has great sharpness/resolution and decent contrast. My exposure times vary from 7-10 seconds on a sunny day to 6 minutes on a very cloudy day. I also
