Kodak Colorburst 100 Instant Camera

I try some old Kodak instant film in a 1980 Kodak Colorburst 100 camera. The camera and flash worked, but the film didn't develop well.

Hello,

why didn't you record till the end of developing, that we could see how the picture showing. It will be very interesting to see...

@Partizan43 It didn't develop any more - it stayed white!! (sad)

[Partizan43]

@Muirwoody - Well, that's realy sad. Tell me please...did you found this film in a camera open all this years or did you open an expired sealed package of instant film and take a photo? I asking you this, because if the film was in camera many years, it's dry...there will be no color showen, maibe some purple...but if you take from a sealed box, it's a lot of chance that it will came out very good and no mether if has expired 25 years ago...?

@Partizan43 I found the film you see in this video in another camera that had sat for many years. Eventually I bought a sealed pack of film ($15. expired 1982) and tried it. It took the entire box, but eventually I got a weak photo that was primarily a Magenta color on top. I used Photoshop to remove that tone and I could see a basic poor quality photo underneath. Too much work and money to try that again. Unless I can get free film.

Do you mind telling me the place you got the film from?

i've been looking everywhere :|

@liveraat The one is this video I got with a box of a lot of old film supplies I bought from someone. Since then I've bought another box off eBay for about $16 including S + H, but it's usually more than that.

@Muirwoody - Well, maibe you have to try some another, but for free you will probably not get it... Today i got from USA 5 pack of this type of film PR144-10 for 5$ + the postage, but OK... and i will try to take some photos, when the weather will be beather. Maibe i will have more luck than you, if you wish you can send me your email and i will send you some photos...

@dutchtuner There is no new film. You can only buy expired film. I got an expired box (2/1984) today, but I'm not expecting much. I've heard there's a way to use a single sheet of Polaroid Image/Spectra/PZ600 film; expose it in the Kodak, put it back in the Polaroid cartridge/camera, shoot it with a "dark" 2nd shot in the Polaroid and let the photo come out and develop from the Polaroid - but I don't know the details.

and it's impossible to get new film right? I found one with a box and manual but I'm not buying untill I know if I can get film for it
