Jim,

Here is a chart I put together and have used for Polaroid Time-Zero film. I
calculate my exposure time normally for an ISO 150 film and use the chart
below that I developed by expirementation. It's not real prescise but it
should get you some good exposures right from the start.

The great thing about polaroid is that you get instant feedback, so you can
modify your exposure acordingly without waiting for results from the
darkroom. I really like the soft colors this film gives you. Too bad for
me though, wal-mart just stopped carrying this film in my town. I'll have
to try the 600 film.

Exposure Chart (Time-Zero Film @ EI 150)
Calculated Exposure Time (sec) Required Exposure Time (sec)
192 900-1250 ???
96 500 ??
48 200 ?
24 75-90
12 30-40
6.0 12-20
3.0 4.5 ?
1.5 1.5 ?

I don't believe I did any exposures longer than 10 minutes so the top end of
this chart are just my best guesses.
