At the workshop last week, Brian Greenberg of Richard Photo Lab was telling me how I can scan the negative side of the 3000 speed Fuji instant film, invert it, and have an incredible image as the final product. I was very skeptical that it really would turn out well but I’m blown away by the result. Here’s a shot that I took during the second day of the workshop of Caroline and Clark. I took it on my Polaroid 195 that Brian gave me while he was here in Birmingham for the workshop. Such an incredible gift!
I look forward to doing this more. Look out for more scanned polaroid negs.
wow, that turned out amazing!
Yeah, how great!
Polaroids are such a fun medium, even if the film is a little pricey (I'm a college student.)
I recently found an andy warhol-esque Big Shot at my local thrift store, and my friend nabbed an SX-70 last year for a couple of dollars. Incredible images
I love it!
I love 3000B negs. I pull off all the extra paper and then scan them. It gives a pretty cool border.
So, sorry if this is a dumb question, but why is it better to scan the neg than the print?
