Hi everyone,
I am getting ready to start a project that I would
prefer using type 55 for. One thing I love about type
55 is that when you pull the negative away from the
the rest of the polaroid, you sometimes get that strip
of material across the top with the holes in it. I
would like to keep

Thanks Dan G. and Sally B., I have several wide mouth Nalgene bottles which
I typically use for backpacking,

I bought a 4+ high lightweight plastic jar made for backpacking,
some famous name brand I can't remember. It was relatively
expensive, several dollars, but doesn't leak and I filled it with
water and rolled the negatives around the edge. They were against
each other, but didn't stick

I simply sandwich my negatives in between store-bought baby wipes. They
are already moist and come packaged in a variety of sizes. I put them
in a ziplock baggy so they stay moist and have had no problems with this
method as of yet.

My question to those of you
tupperware works ok to a point. you have to be very careful about
scratching the film though.
the best solution is the clearing tanks that hold 10-12 sheets of film. i
bought two to take out in the field so i could keep the clearing solution in
one and use the other to wash. they're great.

Tupperware (or other flat sealable plastic) container with interleaved
paper towels and a sponge of enough thickness to hold the stack of
negatives still when the container is closed. Wetting agent is water or
Permawash
Agree that Tupperware leaks. The field process I outlined before my
coffee (and is stolen from Marc Hauser) involves moist paper towels and
sponge. No sloshing liquids, which can be carried in a water bottle. It
does involve handling wet towels and sponge so that probably leaves the
Sodium S.
All suggestions will work, but just letting it dry and then re-wetting it
when you want to clear it worked OK for me.

I never did find anything that worked well and kept the liquid within its
container. Even Tupperware containers will leak with enough agitation. The
process got messy to the point where using Type 55 in the field no longer made
sense to me.

I always had trouble with Tupperware leaking, and it's a pain to carry
around in the wooks. Calumet photo carries a holding tank. I did quick
search but could'nt find it. I'm sure is you spent some time you could.

available from various
Yes, this has been on my mind, too. I was thinking
maybe a Tupperware container of the right size?
My question to those of you who use Type 55 in the
field is this, How do you
keep the negative moist until you get home
Thanks

While the focus is on discussion of Typ55 Polaroid films, I have a question.
Once I press the process lever on my 4X5 film holder and pull and wait
the amount of time needed to develop correctly , I then peel apart the
'pod(?) and seperate the negative from the positive print , and wash in

In his book, Polaroid Land Photography, By Ansel Adams from 1978 he
states that;
an indicated time of 8 sec should be 16 sec (2X)
an indicated time of 16 sec should be 40 sec (2.5x)
an indicated time of 32 sec should be 96 sec (3x)
an indicated time of 64 sec should be 256 sec (4x)

I would appreciate the list also. I just bought a pack of Type 55 for
experimental reasons.

I'll join on that too. Would there be a way to post that information
somewhere that is can be retreived by a lot of people, since I'm sure
there are many others than Gordon or Tom looking

I'm using a wide angle Leonard pinhole (f150) and type 55 Polaoid film.
Does anyone have any suggestions/advice: (1) calculating exposures, (2)
caring for the film in the field, or (3) anything else I should know?
Thanks
