The Impossible Project PX70 Color Shade (11/12) on SX-70 Land Camera

The Impossible Project PX680 Color Shade COOL (with ND Filter) on SX-70 Land Camera

As you can see in the pictures above, the PX680 Cool film (shot with the ND filter in the SX70) produced softer tones with hints of pastel, even when exposed to bright bright sunlight. My mistake was that I forgot to rotate the exposure wheel all the way into dark! I’m pretty sure the colors would be much “cooler” if I had done that. 

Also, the film was supposed to be refrigerated just before shooting but since living in Malaysia nowadays feels like you’re constantly being baked, and the photo shoot location wasn’t exactly nearby so getting the optimum temperature was out of the question.

I’ll try shooting the PX680 Cool film in a controlled environment next and see if there’s any difference, otherwise I’ll probably stick to shooting the PX70 films since applying the ND filter could be quite a hassle and you might waste a shot or two as the filter tends to jam up the film expulsion mechanism!

But that said, I must stress again here that I love my Impossible Films!! How I wish I was able to join their Pioneer Program!! Gah :(

p/s: I’ll be posting a set of B&W portrait shots next, also taken at the same location with my newly acquired Composer Pro & Sweet 35 :)
