My gripe is that, as a Kickstarter contributor, I still can't easily buy P30, and have had no direct communication from Ferrania as to the situation. And I would have been happy to buy at the retail price, not asking for a discount or freeby.
I declined the offer of "free" P30, in lieu of the original E6 film, on the (misleading) suggestion that the E6 film was only delayed a relatively short period. Not a word since.
Face it, I'd have done better just to spend my original contribution on quality, proven and readily available film from Kodak, Ilford, Adox, etc. IMHO, the whole Ferrania thing was a vanity project, as so many Kickstarter projects now seem to be.
You should be happy that your contribution helped save necessary machines and help secure their future.
When we backed Film Ferrania, an altruistic contribution towards supporting their project is *exactly* what we all made.
We weren't ordering film. We weren't buying any products.
Precisely.....I never said otherwise. Please read what I said:- "My gripe is that, as a Kickstarter contributor, I still can't easily buy P30, and have had no direct communication from Ferrania as to the situation.

Ummm... How hard is this? https://www.filmferrania.com/products/ferrania-p30-135-36
I don't think that that site sells to the UK; and, if it does, postage charges and customs duties will apply.
Ok, then how's this? https://www.filmferrania.it/where-to-buy-europe
For goodness sake Analogue Wonderland and Firstcall Photographic have it in stock which a 3 second google search shows.

At that time yes. I meant a new delivery. Every batch (films produced at a time) should be the same.Hi! are you sure about this?. The last time I visited there, I found nothing. Did they increase the price also ?. And what do you mean by new batch. Is is different from the older ones?
If you're going to be rude, please get your facts right first. Both those websites list it but neither has any stock.

When I performed the search at 6am that morning, both retailers had P30 in stock limited to two films per customer.
In fact, the majority of the work we have done internally over the past year was to ensure that our film is consistent across batches (and to minimize waste).At that time yes. I meant a new delivery. Every batch (films produced at a time) should be the same.
Their website currently says that they are expecting a more substantial delivery within "weeks".
As for FirstCall, it's clear from their website entry that they haven't stocked or sold the current version of P30, as their "info" entry is dated March 2018.
Thank you for the feedback !In fact, the majority of the work we have done internally over the past year was to ensure that our film is consistent across batches (and to minimize waste).
Since we do not run the coater 24/7, we only make batches - so to speak. But of course there needs to be no difference between a roll you buy today and a roll you buy months from now.
It will require constant work on our part to make sure this is the case.
Isn't ei50 over exposed? Very nice images through! I love the tonality.

2 rolls per customer with enough stock for probably 1 customer...
Anyway, looking back at when I sent that $70...it is now obvious that we were all quite naive (Ferrania and us backers) to think that $250k would be anywhere near sufficient to renovate a factory and restart industrial production. It costs more than that to build a small house, let alone fix a factory and move industrial machinery around...
Oh well, at least they try!
