As Polaroid film production winds down, Fujifilm is boosting its lineup of peel-apart instant films with the introduction of FP-3000B Professional. A fine-grain, high-speed black-and-white film that completes development in 15-30 seconds, FP-3000B comes in 3.25x4x25-inch sheets and fits into a standard Polaroid back.
Fujifilm peel-apart instant films, which come in black-and-white and color in 3.25x4.25-inch and 4x5-inch packs and are compatible with Polaroid film backs and cameras, were recently introduced into the U.S. market.

Fujifilm FP-3000B film
New instant film from Fujifilm - A film designed to be used in the scientific and medical industries can now be bought and used by you.
Fujifilm Professional has added a new film to its range. FP-3000B is a fine grain, high speed, black and white, peel apart instant film.
This 3000 ISO film was initially designed to be used in the scientific and medical industries. FP-3000B is also now a popular choice for cinematographers and creative photographers. It is easy to use and has a very short development time of just 15-30 seconds.
The film offers exceptional image quality plus superb tonal range with improved highlights. FP-3000B incorporates Fujifilm's own Sigma Crystal emulsion and a new physical development accelerator for the shortened development times, and fine-grain and smooth image quality enhancements.
"We have noticed a significant rise in interest in our range of professional instant films since the discontinuation of Polaroid's instant film products," commented Fujifilm Professional's Jerry Deeney, "The release of FP-3000B further bolsters our range of instant stock which also includes FP-100C Gloss, FP-100C Silk, FP-100B and FP-100C 4" x 5". The 4" x 5" 10-sheet pack film fits into a Fujifilm PA-45 back or a Polaroid 550 pack back."
FP-3000B comes in packs of 10, with each sheet sized at 3.25" x 4.25" and fits into a standard Polaroid 3.25" x 4.25" back.
