In any case the part in bold can't be credible -- Ferrania had a HUGE factory and to make things profitable it needed to keep it running.
The other part of the business of Ferrania was doing the conversion (cutting, perforating, packaging), to sell brand-label film.
But Agfa also did the same...
Brother Mohmad,
There's a problem: I thought it was widely known that the Ilford color films were produced by Sakura (= Konica).
So if, according to what you say, Ferrania was making Konica/Sakura films, then Ilford wasn't making original research.
I find hard to believe that Ferrania made...
Yes. This is a very important part, a key part, really. When they started this project not only Fuji was the sole maker of E6 (along with some remnants of Agfa Aviphot Chrome 200), but also the only makers for C41 film were Kodak and Fuji.
Now the things have changed, we have Kodak E6 again...
I would like to know how are you assesing corner performance. Are you looking at film scans? That's a no no.
You should, ideally, be looking at the negative itself with a strong loupe or with a microscope.
So let's assume you're doing that. You meantion that the lens is "pristine". There's a...
Sorry, but I have followed very closely the Ferrania story as it unfolded. They never said they would make a product that was better than Fuji.
And their "recipes" (if we can call a complicated product such as color film in that way) have little direct relationship with Agfa. This was...
Harman probably can do the conversion and cutting.
Btw, there's no way this film was made by two guys working quietly on a garage lab. I believe almost zero of that marketing blurb.
The announcement says:
"FuguFilm 400 is, we believe, the first completely new reversal film emulsion in nearly two decades.(...)
Let us be clear, this is not an old storage roll pulled from the fabled Fuji freezer, or expired film, this is a completely new emulsion from the ground up"
The...
I wonder how was that K25 kept. If it loses density that could be compensated by increased exposure and/or increased development. About the shift, it will have to be evaluated carefully -- Kodachrome films in general, even when fresh and exposed correctly, had non-neutral grays on certain zones...
