Can I use Fujifilm Instax film on Polaroid 300?

Could I use Fuji Instax 100 Instant Film in my Polaroid Camera?

• I need film for my Polaroid Camera for a science project, and I can't find it anywhere. Could I use Fuji Instax 100 Instant Film in it? Like, would it work? And if not, is there any other film that I could use for it? Or, where do you buy Polaroid film? thanks, - xo,

• Answer:

  No. The Instax films will only work in Fuji Instax cameras. Depending on which type of film you are looking for, you can probably find what you need. If your camera uses Type 600, or the rectangular 3-1/4 x 4-1/4 packfilms, you can easily find these films still. Polaroid just stopped making these films at the end of last year, so many stores, especially online stores, still have stock on their shelves. Do a search on Amazon.com, and you will find many reasonably priced sources. If you are looking for older films, like for an SX-70 (TimeZero film), or the Spectra films, or square format peel-apart films (type 87 or 88), then you are going to have a harder time, since these films have been out of production for a while. If your camera uses the rectangular peel-apart films, like 669, then you are in luck. Fuji has licensed the technology from Polaroid and is making replacement film for the packfilm cameras. Look for Fuji FP-100B (BW) or FP-100C (color)
