Camera - Polaroid Spectra (Mfg. 1986-1998)

Film - Polaroid Color 600 (Round Frame)

using Pola Studio 600 film adapter.

Scan - Epson Perfection V600 Photo

 

First outing with the Spectra System camera using the Pola Studio adapter so the camera can use 600 film. The round frame helps hide the splotches of undeveloped film at the top which occurs when shooting 600 in a Spectra camera.

 

The culprit is the roller pressure difference between the Spectra which used larger film and less pressure compared to the smaller 600 film cameras. The fixes I researched to avoid the splotches included grinding down the roller or wrapping the rollers in electrical tape. This all sounded potentially problematic and a good way to mess up the camera, so using framed film made more sense.
