Hi Henning, I just looked at Ilford's web page and Amazon (in USA), and both still offer Kentmere film. I must have missed the industry news. Kenmore is gone? Or someone bought the rights to use the name?The worst case, as that of course produces enormous costs when a whole production cannot be sold, and it can kill a smaller manufacturer (that was one major reason of Kentmere's market exit, by the way).

I think Henning was referring to Kentmere before Harman bought them.
Yes, but I was talking about the USA source.
Thanks much for all this - I find these industry details fascinating - we are lucky to have you. I thought at one point, Ferrania was looking at reviving some of the full production machines, not just the prototyper, but I've paid less attention as the updates on the project have slowed.
While that is largely the case, at the time that E100 was being re-engineered, a number of podcasts etc that spoke with Kodak folk discussed this issue & the Kodak people were quite careful to explain that the ability to scale to only one master roll per wide coating event was important to being able to bring materials like E100 and T-Max P3200 back into production.
I would love an ISO 200 Ortho film...
I often wonder is it only people like us here on Photrio that are interested in what film is in which cassette, made by whom.
I remember in around the 1990s, probably the heyday of rebadged and private label films (35mm I am talking about). Often it was only the box and cassette that had the private name/label on it, the film inside still had Agfa / Ferrania / Fuji name and markings. I don't think a lot of people passed any heed.
Hello Félim,
no, not only we here are interested in this topic. You will find the discussions and questions in the whole film photography scene: On facebook, instagram, youtube, other forums, photographer clubs and meetings, photo magazines.
And the situation today is very different compared to the 90ies: At that time the repacked films have been significantly cheaper. But nowadays they are in most cases more expensive than the original films.
All those "free film with D&P" were cheap mass market C41 films often rebranded with the name of the lab/shop
This enterprise showed up here too, in ads in a photo magazin in the 80's. Offered were paper prints and slides. The ad shows a cassette dominantly bearing the Kodak catalog-number for that cine camera-film.
So... it's Papa Aaaaa-Churro?Arista is rebranded Foma, for less. Arista Premium 400 apparently was Tri-X. Now it is Ultra 400 and is Foma 400.
But all this digression has annoyed Papa Churro!
Above shot on Babylon 13 getting this thread back on track, M7 CV 50 2.5 at a really low shutter speed. Maybe 1/8 sec. Cuz iso 13 and shade.
(Papa was mid-sneeze)

I think it was while you were lost in the wilderness Donald - around the time of the 2012 Kodak bankruptcy, when Freestyle had re-branded versions of both Plus-X and Tri-X in 135.I don't recall Arista Premium -- must have been before I found Freestyle (around 2005).
