The James Webb Space Telescope has observed a galaxy, GLASS-z13, that is at least 13.5 billion years old, making it the oldest galaxy ever observed by a telescope. I've obviously gained the wrong impression and had thought that 95% of film shooters nowadays were monochrome users, heavily into home processing. None of these small companies delivers color negativ and slide films which are even close to Fuji or Kodak material. I havent forgiven Fujifilm for killing Neopan 400. Tokina is restructuring its product lineup by announcing price increases on 13 of its lenses, each of which will receive a slight rebrand in the process. colour negative vs. reversal film use for the time until around year 2000.

DALL-E 2 can generate photorealistic images from a text description. It's a bummer. :-). Chromes ISO ends around 100 while you can get higher ratings with negative film. Alas, at least Fujifilm brought Acros in terms of Acros II back, albeit for such ridiculous Pricesit costs usually 10 EUR more or less, for one 35mm Roll. Good luck on that, especially if using Canon sensors! Hardware data recovery is complex, requiring sophisticated, expensive equipment. It's also much harder to scan than colour negative. @panther"And people tend to favor the "pastel" color negative look over everything else these days.". Anyone knows or suspects that Fuji may create a cheaper version of Pro 400H? Not sure I will also do it with my old color negatives.

So its not a big deal actually taking in count that Superia 400 isnt very different but its still available in 135 format only . However, I found Portra to be pretty easy. This makes me glad I picked up a couple of 5-packs of 120 in the summer when I got a good deal on it. No? Please support the two major players to keep the remaining film stocks alive. I hope they start cutting and selling Superia in 120, at least.

I haven't had a request for 35mm film in more than ten years. Those wnot wanting to create their images digitally, better start learning how to make their own wet plates. Wow - deeply saddened to hear this news, as a long time medium format shooter, I really enjoy using Pro400h, and I do hope that perhaps like Acros and Ektachrome, that we see them resource different materials (since that seems to be the crux of the issue) and produce improved, or reissued Pro400h II :) I'll keep my fingers crossed, as there must still be a high demand film wise for the single remaining color film stock vs. Kodak in the medium format marketplace.
