Smile Medium Format Polaroids info needed

Hi I just bought my first MF, Mamiya RB67.

It comes with a Polaroid back, which i am keen to use...
question is, what kind of Polaroid films does this take and where can i get some in Singapore? Or does anyone out there have a supply i can buy from?

Can i use the ordinary 'domestic' type Polaroid films?

thanks

The Mamiya RB67 uses pack film which as Tay has highlighted, is available from Cathay.
You'll be able to use 667 (this is BW) or 669 (this is colour, which I've never been able to track down.
You can also use Fuji film - FP100C or FP3000B.

Remember to remove the dark slide on the 'roid back before shooting hor.

cheers

Wonderful camera, and plenty around ... the polaroid results are good too. Polaroid is closing down its film division, though, so it will be scarcer soon ...

Try close-ups too with the RB67, it's one of its strengths because of the built-in bellows. It's a beast, but I can still handhold it (good exercise), as long as I use the waist level finder only and not the prism.
