I can't believe they would use AI-generated imagery for their marketing material.

They ought to be ashamed of themselves.

Each aperture is for a different condition: sunny, partly cloudy, cloudy, and indoors. That’s what the icons next to each mean. (Or something like that. I’m just remembering having watched the video.)

I like a few other people have been on a tour of the Ilford factory. When I was there in their film spooling machine was a hopper of empty cassettes with 'Ferrania' printed on them........ But it is not beyond Ilford's skill to manufacture other film, Kentmere is the one we know about so.......

As regards HR-50, or not, we will have proof if it stops at frame 36, and it will be Ilford if it stops at frame 38. No, it's HR-50 honestly.

This is nothing new, we all know (or maybe not?) Harman converts film for A LOT of other companies/brands.

Never has anyone provided any proof that there is a HP5+/Delta100/... in a canister with other branding than Ilford. Can you?

And a screenshot showing some of the dev times inside of the box:

Yeah, thanks. Pretty clear that it's HR-50/Scala 50. But hey, it's great to see some money going to ADOX, and if Leica branding helps sell more film for ADOX and maybe make a little money for one of the last manufacturers of actual film cameras, more power to them. I wish them great success.
