New55 film please

[swhiser]

I want my own box. In fact, I want my own case. I will pay for my own case. I want to use my new 55 film to make portraits and make a profit. And I'm sure that there are many people that feel the way I do.

Hi John -

We're doing our best to bring New55 FILM to life. It's a complex project and will require a lot of money and a lot of luck. At this point, the choice of film is only one of several challenges.

Let me know if you have any specific questions about status.

I'd be happy with plain, ordinary old-fashioned Readyloads, preferably Tri-X or HP5. (Loved Type 52, never got the hang of Type 55, and the buckets of SS were a messy PITA.)

Sam,

Thanks for posting here! If you can get the film(s) out and people here shooting you will have a very vocal and supportive group. We live this stuff and will support a great product.

I am a veteran Creative Director with 20+ years helping brands like Sony, Absolut, Jaguar and many others achieve success. If I can be of assistance please don't hesitate to let me know.

+1 for the simple intermediate step of readiloads. They would sell well, raise money and not be so so complicated to make. Phase 2 could be the much more difficult 55 project…

I'd be happy with Type 54 4x5 readyload ... Down to my last18 :-(

Well that is news and I have been telling people for some time to hold on to their holders.

However at $11 a sheet, it is not for me. I think they will have a hard time getting mid 6 figures for presale of an unknown product, but I was wrong once...
