The difference

For decades these sat side by side in every studio fridge. Polaroid 669 is warmer, softer and lower in contrast — the classic instant palette. Fuji FP-100C is cooler, cleaner and sharper, and it outlived 669 by eight years as the last peel-apart colour film in production. Photographers who switched under duress mostly agree FP-100C was technically better and 669 was more charming.
