Ilford Photo 2022 Film Photographers Survey

[Sal Santamaura]

When asked what "new technology" I'd be interested in, I said ready-made carbon tissues in CMYK process colors and a variety of monochrome tones.

My response was much less "shoot for the moon." I simply requested that Multigrade RC Portfolio Pearl be offered in 8-1/2 x 11-inch sheets.

I don't want new technology, I want old technology...
Infrared film in 5x7, multiple films in 220!

I also asked for 220.

the whole survey seems pointed at roll film users - perhaps they need a separate one for LF.
I asked for more Delta 100 in ULF sizes that they make in FP4+ like 5x12.
New technology - modern LF shutters to replace aging ones. Scanners up to 11x14.
Question 25 asks where you use a darkroom. Then Question 26 asks where you would like to use one. At home, at home.
No large format brands in the brand lists and some missing in 135 and MF.

Last question makes me question if I should switch to another brand that supports my beliefs. I'm surprised they did not ask what my carbon footprint and environmental impact is.

I did answer that when companies start wading into divisive politics I quickly stop buying from them. I'm just tired of it.
