Thank you to Harman

I just want to post a public note of thanks to Harman technology Ltd and their Harman Express shop for the great products and service.
And a special thanks for the discounts offered this last weekend.

I ordered a bulk roll of Kentmere 400 yesterday morning. It arrived today and fresh as they come!
Expiry date to January 2020. That is the sort of quality and confidence that the manufacturer has on its products that inspires us to use them better.

I'm quite poor and film is a luxury for me. I have to take advantage of all discounts and savings available.
So, a big thanks to all at Harman!

A nice story. Thanks!

Dear Ricardo and SilverO,

Many thanks for your positive feedback.... I have personally passed on your notes to the two departments concerned.

As always, thank you for using and valuing ILFORD Photo products and services.

Thank you Simon.

The New York Times ran a feature on Kodak last Sunday, regarding their leveraging of their technology archive to find marketable products, many far from the realm of silver gelatine.

All I could think of was how badly I miss their utterly magical 320T.

Hat's off to Ilford for sticking with this. Other than my fiendish hunt for old papers that lith well, I support Ilford weekly. Pan-F, HP5+, and 3200 allow me an amazing range of possibilities - and I rely on their RC for tests and masks, and they make some fine fiber papers.

Without you guys, our world would be a lot tougher. I'll add my voice to the thanks, and I speak with my wallet all the time.

Of course Ilford is an excellent company! HP5 is a mainstay for me on Medium format, I am loving Delta 100 in 35mm lately and now i have dared to buy one roll of Pan F to explore the look of Pan F in 35mm, particularly these summer days with over 32°C temperatures!!

Ilford

I just started with film after a 10 year hiatus. I used to love Tri-X, but when it came time to stock up on 4x5 and 120 film, I ultimately decided that Ilford is where I want to spend my dollar.

They still make paper, developers, and seem much more committed to silver process- I will be sad if Kodak eventually goes away for BW film, but I gotta back the horse that seems to have the best chance of staying in the race!

Thats Ilford to me as of 2015 for film.

I do intend to throw some bucks towards the smaller manufacturers of graded papers as well, hopefully keep some variety on the shelves there.
