Photography On Location: New55 Film

I’ve been shooting large-format film for 30 years. I recently retired and bought my first-ever house. The first thing I did was spend 3 months building a home theater. I love to sit in it and watch you shoot large format. It’s so much cheaper and easier than going through it all myself. Also, it reminds me how much I love doing it and your videos get me inspired for my next trip. The most recent was last week at Mono Lake and Yosemite. The lab called today and said my 8x10 Velvia exposures at Mono are on their way. Just really great enjoying your videos and catching the occasional pointer.😀

[@nickcarverphoto]

Man, I love everything about this comment.

[@zx7-rr486]

The main benefit if the film is, that you can check the pictures on the spot. That’s what I used the Polaroid film for. Most of the time I then used other film to make a second or third exposer. Just to have different versions of the picture. But the Polaroid where always my favorite. So thank you for showing this new 55 .

[@johndoddato2662]

Nick, I had always found it was a choice between either having a good negative or having a good print with this kind a film. I always chose for the good negative. I remember when Polaroid hit a dollar a sheet. I was outraged at the time with the high cost of instant film. Light leaks can be a problem when pulling the film cover out for exposure. I always used one hand to hold the film back and holder to prevent any movement that could cause a light leak. I always enjoy your videos. It takes me back to my large format days and my love of film photography.

[@jamesjohnston6765]

The bees were doing some agitating as well! It is fun watching experts experience a case of the WTF's. You are one of the most effective verbal self-flagellation experts I have ever seen.Great video Nick. It was fun seeing you play with that new/old film.

It makes us feel like we're there shooting along side you. I can totally empathize with the frustration of those mistakes too. You took home some really beautiful photos though. Thanks for sharing Nick!

[@ralphbrandi]

Love that you showed your mistakes. Every single person I know who has shot New55 has done the "I pulled out the dark slide too far" thing. I took a class from Sam Hiser from New55 a few years ago at Penumbra Foundation in New York and he specifically addressed how to fix that, but it requires taking the holder into a dark room and reassembling things. I think it would be better if instead of an inscrutable white mark, they printed "STOP PULLING" at that point on the dark slide. :-) Large format rewards mindfulness, and punishes lapses in mindfulness. It's very zen in that way, and I still make these mistakes even though I've been shooting New55 since it came out. I have to say I'm impressed with how quickly you figured out that the prints work better with dark backgrounds. Only took two packs. That said, I kind of love the swirliness of the skies I get with New55. It looks like a painting.

Back in the early 90's, I was shooting TV stills for the BBC. Me and a bunch of newspaper shooters went to Tunisia to shoot publicity pictures on a new drama. All the news boys shot colour neg, processed it in their hotel room, scanned it and sent it back to their picture desks. You should have seen the chaos when we went through arrivals at Tunis airport, bags of white powder everywhere, the old Bill (police) went nuts :)) It was of course their dev powder. Great video, as ever. Nothing has really come close to the original polaroid, but your negs look pretty good.

Will never forget the day I shot my last Polaroid type 55 (10 years ago) I had kept a box in the fridge for a number of years, worked just fine when it had warmed up. Seem to remember it was 50 ISO? My students loved the magic of seeing the print and the edge marking on the negative rebates. At the time clearing the negative was done in a solution of sodium sulphite. Regards from Manchester U.K

If memory serves me, with the old Polaroid 55, you could get either a good print or a good negative but not both. The sensitivity is different for each.

[@saxmangeoff]

Brian Schall Also, I think I recall Ansel Adams writing about exposing for the negative, or for the print.

[@nickcarverphoto]

That seems to be the consensus. Makes sense.

[@nickcollingwoodvintage]

@@nickcarverphoto That's correct. I'm currently still shooting Type 55 (old expired stuff) and it says on the package the print is 50ASA and the neg is 25ASA. So a full stop difference. Personally I like exposing for the print because it is DEADLY good looking when done right and the neg still has enough latitude to pull out a good exposure in the scan even though it's underexposed 1 stop.

[@robertkorn]

@@saxmangeoff He did say that, but that was traditional film negatives he was referring to, not Polaroid. Original Polaroid Type 55 was in fact a different speed for the print and the negative. New55 was supposed to be the same but in my experience it is similar to old Polaroid, one stop different.

This demonstrates the difference between film photography and digital photography. Not many people are willing to invest time and money in the craft of film photography as they did in the old days. With a digital camera its spray & pray. And there is something special about getting everything done in-camera "professional photographer" as opposed to using a photo-editor "graphic artist". Thanks for sharing Nick.

[@punkskaphil]

It's good to see the mistakes being kept in the footage. I've made schoolboy errors in the past two times I've taken my 4x5 into the field. Firstly the shutter on my 210mm has only a T setting and not the B setting which I prefer, and only after developing I found that on one exposure the shutter hadn't opened at all. The second time I was using a reciprocity app for shooting a sunset on Velvia 100. I'd earlier been shooting Delta 100 with a red filter and had accidentally left the filter dialled into the app, so I ended up overexposing my sunset for 3mins20secs when it should only have been 15 seconds.

[@someonewithsomename]

3 and 2/3 stops of overexposure. Yeah, not for Velvia 100

There was an old saying when I was in art school doing Polaroid shooting in the late 70's: "There is always another day to redo the shoot" You did good Matt, Just wish Polaroid Originals company WOULD bring back Type 52 - 54 - 57 - and 59 film again instead of sitting n their Ass, and Gloat in what a product they have.

Peel apart film from Polaroid Originals is never gonna happen. The reason they make 8x10 is because they rescued a 8x10 machine. By that time all other machines were already scrapped, except for the factory in the Netherlands.

All the old Polaroid with "usable" negative had this behaviour ... you had to choose between a perfect print and a perfect negative ... the new one, as I can see from your experience are much demanding on this ... I will try anyway for myself (after spending the last originals I still have!)

[@cwinasia]

Exactly what Bruno said, and you might find it nice to keep some of the rebate on there too, the top has a cool texture. You can store it in water for a while before it hits fix, but too long in warm weather and the emulsion comes off. I discovered this one time while shooting and wandering around Bangkok, I'd just toss the shots into a tupperware of water and keep walking around. The resulting accident was actually quite beautiful. That said this was 665 and much less expensive then than what you are using. Great video!

Years ago at the Northern Michigan Photostock event one of the photographers had the trunk of his car full of all the chemicals for wet plate photography. He was paranoid about NO SMOKING downwind of his trunk due to the pungent ether fumes.. Another photographer there was a small-town fire chief; after smelling the ether and looking at the trunk of the car he told the wet plate photographer that if he was stopped by a cop on the way home we'd never hear from him again. They'd throw him jail and bury the key. Joe, I've always been glad that you didn't speed on your way home! :)
