<p>Any comment on the lifespan without refridgerating? I have a large freezer/fridge now but I'm going to move to a less fancy place soon. I'm thinking of picking up a man-cave fridge for film.</p>

<p>Just read that -- thanks for reminding me! Will try to grab some before it's all gone.</p>

<p>Oh, I stock. ;) I have a freezer full of E100VS that I may never get to. I have no qualms about storing a bunch of FP-100c. Fp-3000b seems to be available for a price... for now. Any idea how long it lasts in normal conditions? Similar to FP-100c? Should I be worried about any that has expired a few years ago and wasn't refrigerated? The only problem with stocking it is I was planning on stocking some Provia 400x before it's gone but it's pricey... and I don't see myself using much of it on the horizon. :(<br /><br /><br> The polaroid is not stuff I'd just go out and shoot like crazy with. If I got a 200 exposures out of a Universal over the next couple of years and then just used it as a 6x9 I'd be totally happy with that. </p>

<p>Wish this was easier... :-/<br> Thanks for the tips though, guys. Learned something.</p> <p>I believe I've found one that will work, but won't know for a day or so. There was a complete set (in nice condition) on Ebay affordably, but I sat around too long and it's gone. Will see how this one pans out and let everyone know. I think patience for one attached to (and confirmed to work on) a Universal model is the way to go here. Too many unknowns.</p>

<p>I read through that blog yesterday. I thought I had matched a similar picture to that but it doesn't look the same, does it. Maybe I should just bite the bullet and buy a nicer one. Can you (or anyone) comment on this?<br> http://www.ebay.com/itm/Mamiya-Universal-Press-Polaroid-back-Genuine-Instant-Film-back-w-digital-timer-/271981736936?hash=item3f535ff3e8<br> <br />Digital timer... pricey at $155 but it seems the best option up there now (judging by photos).</p>

<p>I'm thinking of grabbing a Mamiya Universal for some Polaroid shooting, using Fujifilm's FP-100c and FP-3000b. I am at a loss for the right Polaroid Pack though. There are a few on Ebay but they are somewhat pricey. Can anyone say with any degree of certainty if this one will fit on a Mamiya Universal Press? It looks like one that (on Ebay) claims to fit.<br> http://page5.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/e156228718</p> <p>Cheers</p>
