Subject: Re: [pinhole-discussion] Polaroid 545 back

I use the Polaroid 545 back with the Kodak Ready Loads
all the time with great success. They are very easy to
use. I don't know what range of films is available in
the Ready Load format, but I use the T-Max 100
version. They come in boxes of ten with two sheets in
each. You expose one side, remove it and then turn it
over to use the other side--much like a traditional
film holder. I was surprised to see someone here say
that people say they have trouble with them. The only
difficult thing is that removing them from the holder
is sometimes difficult, but I find the Polaroid films
difficult to remove too (removing them without putting
them through the built-in processing rollers). In
fact, I have ruined more Polaroid film doing this than
I have the Ready Loads. I recommend them if you can
afford the extra expense. The per-sheet cost of the
film will be higher than if you loaded sheet film into
ordinary holders.
