And here is the thing I don't quite understand: Many people pee in their pants, fearing that analogue film may disappear completely very soon and here is a producer who actually develops a NEW product of probably GOOD quality. And what happens? You guys complain about the PRICE! When I first tried the old Adox CMS 100, I was shocked and very frustrated by the poor manufacturing quality (thanks to efke). I actually talked to Mirko Böddecker from Adox and told him that I'd be happy to pay more for this film, if QC would be on a par with other quality producers like Kodak or Ilford but that I wouldn't waste my money on that crap. And it seems that he did exactly what I was wishing for. Plus, the price is still considerably below that of Kodak or Ilford, at least if you buy from the source. Is freestyle trying to kill it?
I certainly will give it a try as soon as I find time...
