Fomapan 100 reversal or negative film developed in Rodinal 1/50 is an almost perfect match for Polaroid type 55 film.

 

Ease of development by jobo tanks or if picky use I R goggles.

Cost 1 usd per 4x5 sheet.

Experimentation can get you as close as you want

here is an interesting portafolio indicative of the films range tonality and spectrum

 

type 55 tended to be slightly less contrasty and that is easy to achieve by altering dev times or

overexposing etc.

 

 

if you muuuuuuuust have both a positive and a negative then contact and.your morbose expenditure has gone up to 2.00

 

Can you remember the last time type 55 cost 2.00 ?

I do it was 1986 lol
