Wonderpan 400 - whatever next?

Orwo and Agfa Gevaert. I am now highly aware of how few companies are producing emulsions. Still, there is a difference between Kosmo Agent Shadow being literally Kentmere 400 and Cinestill XX, given Kodak do not sell Double X direct to consumers in 36 exp reels.

No company is going to perfectly match "my" way of doing things unless I start one up myself....and even then, if I want to break even or make a meagre profit, I'll probably need to compromise on some values. There are companies I won't buy from, AW and N&T are certainly not on that list.

I've not heard bad things about N&T but I don't have my ear to the ground in this sphere as much as some others that I am in.

I feel I may not have understood the point you are making in the second sentence. Can you amplify on it ?

Thanks

Exactly. I might not be happy with AW in some regards but I’m happier with them than others.
