![]() This fault is completely random and depends on many variables with each pack of film and the configuration of the camera circuitry. We also carried out multiple battery tests with different voltages and currents from different suppliers. Polaroid Spectra AF Film is the best film for capturing memories in vivid detail and color. We optimized the dimensions and deflection angle of the ejecting film, reduced the pod weight, and lowered the mask friction through different coatings. Our manufacturing team led an intensive, 6-month testing and improvement plan on Spectra cameras and our film. Thank you for your continued belief in analog instant photography, We look forward to working with our community to test new products and to keep analog instant photography thriving well into the future. New Polaroid packs are great, as they have fresh, powerful batteries in each pack for 600 and SX-70 and they last well beyond 8 shots. Just finish off a working cartridge, and instead of throwing it away, keep it to use again. So today, with a heavy heart, we are announcing the end of production for Spectra film.Īs we share in the sadness with our community, we continue to focus on the future of analog instant photography through enhancing our core range, and through continued work on our film chemistry. All you have to do is move the film from the cartridge with a dead battery to a new cartridge with a working battery. Since it is a 600 model camera, it works with expired and new Polaroid. However, it has the best viewfinder I’ve seen on a consumer 600 camera and excellent autofocus capabilities. It doesn’t collapse down to a smaller size and it has almost no custom controls. Jamming and frequent breakdowns are now affecting the majority of these cameras, and unfortunately, this is not something we can influence with our film.Īfter extensive testing, we have concluded that we cannot support these cameras any longer. The Polaroid Impulse AF is a fairly simplistic, rather cheap looking 600 camera. Spectra film (called 'Image' outside of North America) is different from 600 integral film in that it has a different image format: a rectangular 9.2 x 7.3cm rather than 600 film's square format. It was an all-new line of cameras, and had a corresponding new film. With three decades behind them, these wide format cameras are now coming to the end of their useful lives. Polaroid introduced the Spectra system of cameras in the early 1980s. ![]() Since 1986, Spectra has played an important part in Polaroid’s film offering and in the world of analog instant photography.
