New films (TBD) from Harman and CineStill + ULF orders!
During the past few days, both Harman and CineStill posted teasers of their upcoming releases; meanwhile, Ilford is now taking orders for ultra-large format (ULF) film.
Harman’s tease on Treads (threads.com/@harmanphoto/p…, and elsewhere) shares a date, June 17th, as a launch spot for their upcoming something. Word on the street is that it’s an update to their Phoenix emulsion (analog.cafe/r/harman-phoen…). Let’s see if that’s correct, just a few days left!
As some of you may know, Harman uses the Ilford brand name to sell black-and-white film they make (if this is a surprise, read this: analog.cafe/r/harman-phoen…). Anyways, they are now taking orders for odd and very large film sizes at your local retailers, see: ilfordphoto.com/ultra-larg…
Lastly, CineStill has teased three upcoming announcements with a cryptic “+” graphic on Instagram (instagram.com/p/DKft2OBMLG…) — some photographers are guessing that it may have something to do with a positive (slide) film. Let’s see how that pans out.
By the way, I’ve asked CineStill about Kodak’s latest announcement that could affect their products — but I haven’t heard back. Perhaps they’re busy prepping for the launch. Context: analog.cafe/comments/6lnk
