Tetenal new product

[fs999]

Tetenal seems to bring up a new product shortly : C41 tabs.
You can find the technical information on their download page.

Following their earlier endeavors with tablets, this makes sense: https://www.photrio.com/forum/threads/tetenal-new-generation-of-photochemicals.186711/

Nice. This would suit my needs really well.

Thank you. That is useful. But it does not state how many rolls can be developed with a set of tablets. Any idea?

The German instruction says 8 rolls if single using, but using a second time with adjusted times is fine as well. So it is 16 rolls. Each mix up means 1 or 2 rolls, and the non-mixed pills have a long shelf life. Would fit my use pretty well! Any idea how much it will cost, is there already more information?

 

[Agulliver]

Could be something I'd try, as I currently only do B&W myself. I have a good, cheap lab almost on my doorstep but I'd strongly consider giving something like this with a long shelf life a go. Buy the tablets well in advance and wait the right opportunity.

Looks like a perfect solution for many small volume users and with the price of C41 films aren't we all small volume users now

Is this product available right now or will be in the next few weeks? It looks that way but I couldn't find any mention of this?

I like this a lot. Perfect for my sporadic C-41 use.

It does state this explicitly in the manual. Each tablet is good for 150ml of solution which equals one roll for rotary processing.

Wow, missed this earlier but saw the reference in the new Widelux project video. This is exciting for us small volume users.

So while my original question doesn't seem to have been answered, can I take it that C41 tablets are now available and if so from what source? Thanks

I just looked at Freestyle and Fotoimpex not much of anything is in stock from Tetenal

What's the status on tentenal in general, I know they had problems (forgot the details). How's there future? I wish this would come to market!

 

[mshchem]

IIRC Tetenal is relocating it's office and looking for a new manufacturing partner.
I went to their shop nothing is in stock.

 

[Agulliver]

I was going to say, given the relocation and current lack of any manufacturing partners....I would not expect anything from Tetenal to be in stock any time soon.

 

[mshchem]

Hopefully it's a pause in manufacturing and Tetenal will be back soon.
