Reddit mentions of Impossible ND Filter Twin Pack

Hi, there! I've used a ton of the impossible expired film in the past. Their expired 3 pack grab bag is one of my favorites! I love the experimenting and the learning! Hopefully I can help with some insight.

First, your film stock pile. I have tons of different film from over the years filling up my fridge as well so I know the joy and fear you are having. I am happy to say at least in my experience If you have kept them in the fridge the who time before use you are likely to get the same quality of picture that you would have if you had used that pack the day you got it. I just used their Lucky 8 film from its original release over a year plus ago and got results similar to what other did from it. That being said, I do try to rotate out older stuff as I see it just for peace of mind.

Second, when it comes to the expired stuff it really can be a crazy hit or miss, and I have no idea why. I've always wondered if it had something to do with certain batches or maybe how these packs have been stored by there individual distributors. During the IP holiday sale I bought some super cheap B&W Spectra film that expired in 2014 and it still delivered great shots. On the other hand the 600 Paradise Lost edition that are expired turn out red and over exposed every single time... And this is the only trend I've seen consistent, certain runs will give similar results. So if you have more of the same run I would expect something similar to happen. I would suggest taking what works well to get shots in this pack and be ready to apply it to another. For me the Paradise Lost was always red so I tired to shoot images that were more green to attempt to even it out. Again its hard to tell but what you got is not the sole experience of the expired film, you will find better results in some packs, some even look the same as brand new film.

As far as trying to work with with whats left of this pack, the best advice I can give is to play with it. It seems like you know quite a bit about what you are doing so keep pushing forward with new ideas. My own two cents would be to try darkening your exposure all the way past the 2/3 mark and and try some filters. And not those over priced mint ones either. Just make your own and hold or just tape them with masking tape to your camera for each shot. I made my own after watching this video.

You could try and use the impossible filter pack too. I know you said you are already using the correct film in the correct camera but with they way they are looking it might help if you have a second pack to use; they are on Amazon. if you have a local camera store you might be able to get them cheaper, I think I got mine for 6.99

Good Luck and keep shooting!

Oh that's actually really easy.
Use either nd filters for the pack https://www.amazon.com/Impossible-ND-Filter-Twin-Pack/dp/B006HFW6OU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1496945792&sr=8-1&keywords=impossible+project+nd+filter

Or the lens kit with the nd filter https://www.amazon.com/Lens-Polaroid-SX-70-SX70-SLR680/dp/B00EHFVLZW/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1496946016&sr=8-2&keywords=impossible+project+nd+filter

You can find cheaper options on Ebay if you don't want the full lens kit. But yeah that will stop the film down to work with the SX70's sensor.
