Anyone know whether the current Polaroid / Fuji Instax film will work in a Polaroid back for the 6008? Just curious. I see Polaroid 600 film, and the Rollei Polaroid backs are compatible with "Suitable for film types 665, 667, 668, 669, 108 and polacolor pro 100 (monochrome prints, monochrome prints with negative, color prints)" according to the listing of E*freaking*bay. If you can shed some light here, much appreciated. Thanks!

A sheet film back is better (assuming you have an instax camera to process the film). Otherwise I have attached the film as shown and pulled it through the rollers. You may have to modify a spent Polaroid cartridge as the direct path through the rollers is different than the original film path.

Do you know whether some to the 600 series Polaroid film currently available will fit the Rolleiflex Polaroid back? or did you bail on that idea and go with the Instax? (Looks like the latter, but thought I'd ask). I think what I'm looking at is Instax.... but I'm not sure about the rest.
