Question by Emma L: How to store polaroid film once it has been inserted in a camera?
I was wondering the best way the store polaroid film once it has been inserted in a camera? I have a Polaroid Cool Cam using 600 film. Is it possible to remove the film if, say, you only want to take 2 pictures, and then store it in the fridge? Or does the film remain perfectly fine if simply left in the camera with the camera stored in a dark, cool place? Thanks!
So any idea as to how long it will last if I leave it in the camera and store appropriatly?
Thank you both!

You should keep it in the camera.
The solution used for developing the photo is stored in that strip at the bottom of the photo . The rollers on the camera squeeze out the solution when it is forced out . So it is sealed.Best to keep it that way. It is as safe as it would be sitting in a store.
When I discovered my parents camera , the film was over 5 years old and it worked fine.
I don't know how long it will last , but it should last a long time. I know I have left it in for a year.
If you remove it, it will definetly ruin (expose)one picture .
By the way , shaking it does NOTHING to help develope it , again the solution is contained within the picture so the air never reaches it.
