Making 1,000 HP is one thing; putting it to the ground is another. The FP1000 is engineered to be a driver’s truck, not just a dyno queen.

In 2016, Fujifilm dropped a bombshell: they were discontinuing all peel-apart pack films, including FP1000. The reason was predictable—digital had decimated the instant film market, and the machinery to coat the complex reagent pods was ancient.

The photography world mourned. Prices on eBay instantly tripled. A single pack of FP1000 (10 exposures) that once cost $8 now sells for $80–$120 if you can find it stored properly (cold storage is critical).

In response, a startup called New55 attempted to resurrect peel-apart film, and later Supersense (creators of One Instant) managed to produce small batches of monobath peel-apart material. However, the color chemistry and the sheer precision of the FP1000 format have proven nearly impossible to replicate. As of 2025, FP1000 remains a finite, shrinking resource. fp1000

    Why It’s Legendary:

    Important Note for Buyers:
    FP-100C was discontinued by Fujifilm in 2016. Remaining packs now sell for very high prices ($100–$200 per 10-shot pack) on auction sites, and they are likely expired. For current instant peel-apart film, check New55 (for black & white only) or One Instant (revival project, very limited). User benefit: Authentic analog look for instant film

    These medium format rangefinders had specific "P" (Polaroid) backs. They allowed studio photographers to test lighting before shooting expensive roll film. Today, those backs are useless unless you pay $150 for a single pack of expired fp1000.

    Before we go further, let’s clarify the naming convention. When users search for fp1000, they are likely conflating two legendary products:

    The "1000" myth: There never was an official "FP1000." The closest relative is the legendary Polaroid Type 667 (ISO 3000) or the FP3000B. Search engines now treat "fp1000" as a catch-all for high-speed peel-apart film.
