Instant Film - Demon Sheep

Polaroid JobPro Instant Camera Impossible Project Color Shade UV+ Film - Finally got through my first pack of Impossible Project Color Shade UV+ and am ready to start posting the results... This is my first shot. The "Demon Sheep" was a garage sale find and the creepiest stuffed animal I have run across in while. Its red eyes are leering out of a dog cage in this shot, and a cage is exactly where this thing belongs.

The Impossible Project Color Shade UV+ is everything you would expect from and integral type instant film. Muted, almost pastel colors, low contrast and slightly "unsharp," all combining to bring back the beloved Polaroid Film look of the late 20th century. The is the real "instagram."

Demon in an Eyecup

Kiev 60 Arsat 80mm f2.8 40mm extension tube Rollei Digibase CN 200 Pro Arista C-41 - In my previous post Liquidambar Styraciflua Fruit I notice a sinister face peering back on me from the "Gum ball" at the lower far right while I was scanning the film. Such and evil looking character deserved its on portrait, so I present,,,, A Demon in an Eyecup. This is my first roll of  Rollei Digibase CN 200  and I am truly impressed. The film has great sharpness, nice fine grain and tremendous latitude. Digibase scanned beautifully, with my Epson V500 getting very close to accurate color on the prescan. A test on my HP Scanjet G4050 using Hamrick's Vuescan 9  yielded similar results. Contrast is moderate and held well even when the film was over or under exposed. About the only complaint I have about this film is its excessive curl once dry, making it hard to hold flat for scanning.
