Polaroid Spectra Film – Where to Get it, and What Makes it Unique

The Spectra is a series of Polaroid Instant Cameras produced by the company in the early 1980s. These cameras have experienced a huge second wave in popularity recently from those disillusioned by the ethereal nature of digital photography, and likewise enchanted by the unique and quirky nature of these amazing and special cameras.

Are you looking for a cheap source of film for your Spectra? or Looking to buy a Spectra, and get into the exciting and artistic world of Instant Film Photography? Check out our deals on Polaroid Spectra Film and Cameras today.

Polaroid Spectra film is similar in function to regular Polaroid Instant integral film, as the film develops in your hand once the picture is taken and the camera spits out the film. The difference in Polaroid spectra film is the size: spectra film is a rectangular format that differs from the more widely recognised square format used by the popular 600 series.

This unique film, combined with the Spectra’s superior lenses and higher build quality, make the spectra a widely sought after camera by Polaroid lovers of old, and those just getting into the resurgence of the Polaroid photography trend.

Polaroid Spectra film as a result is widely sought after and can be hard to find, and when you can find it, it can be very expensive. Polaroid Spectra film comes in packs of 10 or 12 shots.

You can likely still find film for sale at larger or specialist Film Camera stores, but as stated it is likely to be very expensive. The best place to buy this rare film is online, and searching online venders such as Amazon or eBay can sometimes yield bargains, or at least prices slightly more agreeable than bricks and mortar stores. Keep an eye out for bulk packs, which can be an expensive initial outlay, but the saving per shot can be quite significant. A good idea is to get together with some other Spectra enthusiasts and all pitch in to reduce the cost and split the film between you.

Instant Film $98.77 Instant film is a type of photographic film first introduced by Polaroid that is designed to be used in an instant camera (and, with accessory hardware, with many professional film cameras). The film contains the chemicals needed for developing and fixing the photo, and the instant camera exposes and initiates the developing process after a photograph has been taken. In earlier Polaroid instant cameras the film is pulled through rollers which breaks open a pod containing a reagent that is spread between the exposed negative and receiving positive sheet. This film sandwich develops for a predetermined time, depending on film type and ambient temperature, after which the positive sheet is peeled away from the negative to reveal the developed photo. In 1972, Polaroid introduced integral film, which incorporated timing and receiving layers to automatically develop and fix the photo without any intervention from the photographer. Instant film is available in sizes from 24 mm x 36 mm (similar to 135 film) up to 20 x 24 size, with the most popular film sizes for consumer snapshots being approximately 31/4 x 41/4 (the image itself is smaller as it is surrounded by a bord Author: Miller, Frederic P./ Vandome, Agnes F./ McBrewster, John Binding Type: Paperback Number of Pages: 132 Publication Date: 2010/10/31 Language: English Dimensions: 9.02 x 5.98 x 0.31 inches

Color Motion Picture Film $92.4 Color motion picture film refers to motion pictures in color. The first motion pictures were made with silver halidebased photographic emulsion on a clear base. The resulting image was projected in a range of blacks to whites, depending on the luminous intensity of the original subject. With color motion picture film, not only is the luminance of a subject recorded, but the color of the subject, too. Whether the color is photographed on separate pieces of film or within the same emulsion, all color photography is synthesized through various parts of the image recording discrete spectra of light. The earliest motion picture stocks were orthochromatic and recorded cyan light, but not red light. Recording all three major wavelengths of light required making film stock panchromatic to some degree.
