Will P30 ever get released as a non alpha film? If so when? At this rate colour reversal will be released in a couple of centuries. Ferrania was supposed to be the one leading the rebirth of colour reversal film and I even believed it for a while.
Since he obviously had enough time to quote my post here on this forum, I wonder why he didn't have the few seconds to copy paste that post into an email and send it to the correct guys.it means he has many folks wanting his limited time. Send him a detailed e-mail with your concerns, including where he can see the images that cause the issue, and he will have someone get back to you in due course.

I assume he knows the right contacts and engineers to forward it to...
Why do I have to do it again and send the email to some generic address that I assume is already very overloaded as is?
Keep in mind that I do NOT want anything from Dave (beside maybe a thank you), I tried to be helpful and deliver on my earlier promise to share my results with him.
I do NOT want to get any benefits or replacement films, I am honestly disappointed with all three films I bought from Ferrania and do not want any more of them!
But here you are, as promised my report and sample image - you can use it if you want.
I guess it is online but they forgot to send the notification?

Gotta love how always, no matter whatever Ferrania does, it is defended by almost everyone here and if one single person dares to say anything remotely negative he's slammed by others.I wonder why you didn't have the few seconds to copy paste that post into an email and send it to the correct guy.

I was stupid enough to offer free help, just because I am a good person and thought it might be useful to him, expecting at least an "OK" or "thank you" or anything remotely nice.
"This is our email" is a very rude reply of his to someone who tried to help him for free.
I work in verifcation and validation of very complex systems for years now professionally and if any single customer of mine came by and just offered me some nice help for free without shouting at me or wanting anything at all in return for it, I would kiss his feet in a second. Maybe his small report is what I still needed to fix a problem.
I don't understand how anyone can even still wonder why I am annoyed by what happened, but whatever.

Thank you Dave! This was a very nice reply. I will email you higher res samples once I am back from work again.Thank you. I do very much appreciate your efforts.
I'm sorry to hear that you're disappointed with our film. But it's perfectly understandable that P30 ALPHA won't appeal to everyone.
The email address I posted is not a "generic address." It's the primary address of the 4 @filmferrania.it inboxes I personally monitor and answer. And yes, with all I have to do, I have not been able to spend significant time on APUG recently, so an email would have been helpful.
The other reason I asked you to email me was so that I could perhaps collect some more details, and also request more and higher resolution images so that the factory team can properly examine them. Copying and pasting your post (well, two different posts) was just not optimal.
Maybe one day we'll make a film you like. Or not. Just keep shooting film!
I hope Ferrania will not decide to ditch the color film entirely to concentrate on BW as various are encouraging them to do!
Well I backed Ferrania because I was seeing color film go away (and my much beloved e100 already did), and I don't see that trend reversing today. Fuji just discontinued Superia 200, Ektachrome seems already delayed to 2018 (or ever if they change their minds).
What is the added value that a BW only Ferrania can bring to the current market? Correct me if I'm wrong, but there are various manufacturers that can do toll and or specialist things (Adox was very kind to cut 1/4 plate sheet film for me, for example). Color, on the other hand, depends on the good will of just two manufacturers, one of which gives signals of wanting to pull the plug very often.
EDIT: to clarify, I don't want Ferrania to to stop making BW, it is just sad if they decide to give up color, as that is something that will never come back once it is gone.
Another repulsive "grand exit" post. Goodbye. Don't let the door hit you on the way out....Here ends my final post ever on this forum. It's simply not enjoyable in any way any more.

E6 processing is a very standardised, fixed procedure. It's not like B&W where one has a myriad combinations of times, temperatures, chemistry, agitations, choice of densities.
E6 processing is performed only in one way, and the more one sticks to the procedure, the better the results.
It's conceivable Ferrania would release Alpha films for the first batches, when some productive issues can still arise. But the testing will only involve standard E6 processing. E6 is more complicated, but it's also simpler, because there are no choices to make (apart from the everlasting question on weather to preasoak with water or not).
The "official" process has the two separate does it not? and the formalin bath was phased out officially some time ago I believe.There is also the question of blix vs bleach and fix, and use of formalin or not.
