Instant film negative!
Polaroid 180 - f/8 1/250th
Fuji 3000B deliberately underexposed 3 stops and developed for 45 seconds (triple time)
I've been experimenting with my first pack of instant "Polaroid" film. This was actually Fuji 3000B.
So, when you use a "peel apart" instant film, you get a little print from it. But there is also a negative side left over. If left in the light, the negative continues to develop and ambient light fogs it into a gray mess. The negatives have visibly more detail and tonality to them, so I attempted to save this one by dipping it in a weak fixing bath. Turns out, the emulsion is so thin that the current just from laying it in the fixer is enough to cause it to disintegrate. The development did stop, though...
