David,
This is too weird--my grand daughter's name (born a week ago in between my 
classes in my home and both the midwife and I missed the birth it was so 
fast! or did I already say that onlist, I'm just toooo proud....) is Lela 
Grace.  She's little enough to bathe in my alt process trays!  JUST KIDDING, 
FOLKS...

Yes to Polaroid 55 film successfully in a pinhole camera--it was in a 
Polaroid 545i holder in both a 4x5 box pinhole and a 4x5 springback pinhole 
camera.  Watch reciprocity, though. I use Polaroid to test exposure all the 
time in those cameras, mostly the color film type 59, though.

Bring sodium sulfite with you in the field--you can plop a couple 
tablespoons in a ziploc baggie and add a cup of water, if you want to clear 
them in the field.
Chris
