Office space to let

Very nice -- is this in fact the print, or a scan of the "negative." If the latter, this first time I'm seeing a 3000B negative scanned like this. I've played with FP100C "negatives" -- do you have to remove the backing material, like with the 3000B. Please describe your process -- thanks!

Thank you. Being a rather crude automatic (AE priority) camera, its a bit difficult to previsualise how the camera sees it. But I'm getting the hang of it (I think).

This is a scan of the negative. I could have scanned the print, and in some cases I do, but in this case the shadow detail was more important to me than strong contrast.

The FP3000B film doesn't have a negative in the sense you are referring to. The emulsion is so thin it can't be separated from the back. Normally, before the age of digital consumer scanners, they would get thrown away. But scanned as a reflective medium (same as for the print) they can be used and stored for posterity (which means I can give away the print that much more readily - as is half the fun with Polaroids). Invert after scanning in your chosen tool (PS Elements will do) and Bob's your uncle. However the negative is very sensitive. Once separated from the print it will continue to react with the developer if subject to too much light, sunlight is the real killer. Try to let the negative dry in as dark a spot as possible. In room temperature it takes a matter of minutes. I tend to remove the remnants of the sachet and paper used to contain the developer before drying, or you will rip of the edges of the emulsion if you leave it until after dry (as happened here:

Very interesting -- thanks!
