type 55 film

I've decided to shoot some more images on my iphone using a new app I bought; Photo 55. It's a new app from Double H Productions that lets you create the look of the classic Type 55 or 665 film, with just a couple of clicks. It produces digital black and white images that look similar to Polaroid type 55 film. Polaroid Type 55 film is a black-and-white peel-apart Polaroid film that yields both a positive print and a negative image. Unfortunately in 2008 Polaroid decided to stop producing all instant film, including Type 55. Even with this sad loss in the photography world it's great that photographers and various software companies are keeping the spirit of simple vintage photography but with a digital edge. Also it had great to leave color alone for a bit and just focus solely on light, shadow, and shape; even if it's just with an iphone app.
