How to use i-Type film in a vintage polaroid camera (600 and SX-70)

The following video shows the process of how to adapt polaroid i-Type film to work with older polaroid 600 and sx-70 cameras

[@TheOn3LeftBehind]

I think Polaroid will eventually have to incorporate a reusable battery pack into their cartridges because the batteries are SO wasteful! Thank you for showing this

[@michael_177]

UPDATE ALERT: IT WORKED!!! First try! All I had to do was just use a bit more pressure to get it in, and it went in snugly. Thanks so much for being one of very few videos on KZbin which cover this. Helped me big time. Now I've got some i-type black and white in a old 670AF 😎

[@FoxintoshPlus]

Hell yeah man! yea its a little snug and you gotta be careful with that metal tab in the middle tho the older sx-70 cameras both SLR and onestep cams don't have it

[@Grains-Digigunk]

I feel like I owe a huge thank you for this LOL Thanks to this video I was able to shoot a ton of discounted iType film I got from a thrift store thru my impulse AF and it works like a dream! Much much appreciated 📸

[@FoxintoshPlus]

Hey hey of course ^^ always glad to see this trick work for other people even a year later!

[@confusedcarlos]

Works! Purchased some i type camera film and followed the directions on the video. I taped the edges tightly and with a firmer push (since the i type film is rather triangular rather than evenly flat) i took a picture and came out great 👍 thank you so much!

[@FoxintoshPlus]

Hey, np bud! Glad to hear it worked well for ya

[@basedmax9029]

Never thought a furry had the brain power for this

[@Azii-jp8yl]

that. is. jank. i love it

[@michael_177]

Bro you might just be an actual legend of the highest degree. Thank you for uploading this!! These videos are the gems I'm looking for 😊Might try this on one of my 600 cameras 🤔 I shall give it a go Peace from South East England ✌ lmao the lord help me over the mousemat made me chuckle

[@FoxintoshPlus]

Haha glad that you found this helpful bud! And I hope this works well for your 600 boyos òwó)b

[@barrelofmonkeys]

Thank you so much for this video! I've been looking everywhere for that "bwiiii" sound at 8:56, so nostalgic :) everyone puts music over their videos so it's hard to hear it!

[@gabrielleideas]

Just did it and it worked!! It's awesome beacause the battery from my last cartridge was still working and it would´ve been bonkers to just throw it away. Also, the i-type film it's cheaper than the regular 600 film 😅

[@taiholz]

OMG! It's perfect! I need to try.

[@FoxintoshPlus]

Glad you enjoyed the video!

[@joeyprince9183]

Thanks for the great hack. ❤️📸

[@missaelmartinez6528]

Imma try this next month, ill come back with an update later

[@vananarvamcproject4321]

YEEEEAH! BREAKING THE RULES! I'M LOVING IT!

[@SuperFrodo95]

You should be able to recharge the battery with a 2S hobby charger too. Just have to figure out if it's Lithium-polymer, or Lithium-ion, and what the polarity of the contacts is.

[@FoxintoshPlus]

I think I looked it up once tho it was something odd

[@SuperFrodo95]

​@@FoxintoshPlus They will be positive and negative. But if you want to take battery safety serious you'd need to have a positive connection for each battery in order to balance the voltage between both cells. It would probably be easier to mod the camera to have its own internal battery at that point.

[@eugenegrebionkin]

Those aren't rechargeable, but a regular batteries

[@dabzvapelord]

thanks for this. a more straightforward tutorial would be amazing because i keep going back and forth to see details

[@qamil9460]

Thanks a lot! I'm a fan of these fancy frames like rainbow squares and black frame, which do not exist for Polaroid 600. I will definitely use it when my Polaroid will arrive. Do you have any recommendations on how many i-type cartridges you an use with every 600 battery? Thanks!

[@FoxintoshPlus]

Awww np, bud! and I'm honestly not too sure, my one fear has always been the battery will die halfway through a pack. I do have test cartilage I've been using for a while, I'd suggest perhaps the battery is good for 3 uses (1st time being used normally with a 600 film) and the other 2 times when it's taped to the battery. anything beyond is risky I'll have to stress test one someday

[@therestorationofdrwho1865]

How do you think SX-70 shooters feel 😂😂 we get no special editions at all, nothing. 600 gets tons.

[@qamil9460]

@@FoxintoshPlus Thanks! I will try it when I will get my one. But you're right, that's really scary.

Soooo... How many i-type cartridges you can use for a single battery ? That's just a great tuto, thanks !!

[@Tysxno]

How long does the battery last? and could you just put the itype film into the 600 cartridge?

[@skade245]

Any idea if this works on the polaroid impulse? It uses 600 film but Im not sure if the slot is the same

[@qwerty_9537]

cool mousepad!

[@Spyro_Synaes_Symbio_SPYR017]

The Joker shows us his Polaroid modifying skills

[@home3638]

Sorry, I just found my old Polaroid Colarpack 80. Please tell me if it will work with these new films?

[@FoxintoshPlus]

it is possible to use the fuji method on this camera but the newer films directly from polaroid will not work. My other video shows the fuji method kzbin.info/www/bejne/d3K3YaV8jM-Cb7c

[@ImperiumOfLuther]

Hi my polariod 600 spams photos and wastes my film! How do i fix this issue?

[@ianasogaming8003]

Bruh you kinda sound like the joker but man your a zeggy man for showing your skills

[@idahofur]

I don't know what to say about the Fujiwara pad.

[@zeff79]

how can i use itype if i dont have a pack of 600 previously, thnak u

[@FoxintoshPlus]

you just buy a pack of 600 film ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[@therestorationofdrwho1865]

May have paid off to have saved all those cartridges like I have 😂😂 only problem is I use an SX-70 camera, so I’ll need a filter too. If you’re careful and tidy with how you attach the battery, it does seem doable obviously. Definitely not recommended for younger people to do, messing about with the battery like that and all. I could last off of I-type film for ages with this method, you can find this film even cheaper if it’s slightly expired or a bit older so that helps too.

[@FoxintoshPlus]

Haha that’s exactly what I do! I find cheap itype film new or expired (I highly enjoy the metallic nights one) and I have recently ordered those ND filters to use my sonor Polaroid :) I do plan on making some dedicated Polaroid videos once I complete my main video project 👀

[@NumaticVacuum]

Ancient! That one is only from like 1997.

[@FoxintoshPlus]

Really? I honestly thought it was older, its hard to find the model years for polaroid stuff for some reason

[@NumaticVacuum]

@@FoxintoshPlus The design of this camera does date back to about 1981, which is probably why, lol.

[@CHAD-RYAN]

Its from 1998. Its called a onestep close up.

[@CHAD-RYAN]

It has a macro lens built into it, that feature doesnt work all that well but the 90s polaroids are still better than the 80s

[@Gthangskitchen04]

What do you use to edit this?
