Most lame repackaging so far. Camera name in the film name and camera image on repackaging doesn't match camera name in the film name.
 
Zorki Photo states that they have been using this film for years....I'm trying to find somewhere where he actually mentions what the film is/was that he shot which is now re-packaged as Zorki 35mm.
Anyone know?

I love that box design!
I agree, the camera is badly chosen. Though it is not that far from the FED Mikron 2.
 
it's 4 Pounds Sterling to be exact. There are cheaper alternatives available.

Ok, 4.5€ and yes, there are cheaper alternative s. The point is that we have more films too chose from and at a reasonable price
 
Are you suggesting it's a new film, not a known brand in a different package?
 
On that link is says "It’s a film I’ve used for some years, and I love it.", so probably known brand in a different package (my bet is Foma 100). For APUGers not a big deal, but in general this is also a valid way to introduce film to new customers and expand film market.

From the article it sounds like it is a known film that is no longer available, produced by some by some leading film manufacturer. I'm not suggesting anything.

Isn't kentmere Ilford?

Yes, both Kentmere and IlfordPhoto are brand names of Harman Technology, with products manufactured at their factory at Mobberley, U.K.
Kentmere film is stated not to be identical to the corresponding Ilford films, and does appear to have slightly different characterics; it's usually slightly less in price.
 
Guys, a NEW film on the market is never gonna happen.

Creating a new plant just for a new film would be too costly and not viable.

It is a rebrand.

Doesn't have to be a new plant, though. Ferrania have resurrected a black-and-white film (P30) which is certainly new to most of us. And the 2 Kentmere films were a new and different emulsion coated at Ilford's plant.

nonsense. pancro400 p30 lomochrome400 and others films
 
Be careful with that "nonsense". You overlook the costs involved in manufacturing a new film or even only to re-start production of an already existing film.
 
the packaging has a very eastern european / Russian look, hence my guess .... something from the former Eastern Bloc.
