Photo Forum / Film Photography / Darkroom / January 2006New Ilford Print Developers.
http://www.ilford.com/html/us_english/pdf/ctwt.pdf > http://www.ilford.com/html/us_english/pdf/ctwt.pdf These may be of interest to those who have been using Agfa Neutol cool and warm tone developers.  Signature--- Richard Knoppow Los Angeles, CA, USA dickburk@ix.netcom.com > http://www.ilford.com/html/us_english/pdf/ctwt.pdf [introducing Harman Warmtone and Harman Cooltone paper developers] So who's Harman? "ILFORD Photo is the trading name of HARMAN technology Ltd, the company under which the new enterprise trades, and is the brand which will be used for all monochrome products - film, paper and photochemistry. The HARMAN brand (drawn from the name of ILFORD's founder in 1879, Alfred Harman) will be applied to other aspects of the company's business, such as thin-layer film and paper coating for the medical sector, as it becomes further organised. . . . It is this dedication [sic] to black-and-white, shared by Harris and Hopwood with their fellow HARMAN technology directors: Andy Taylor (Finance Director), Steven Brierley (Sales Director UK, USA and Australia), Simon Galley (Sales Director European and Export Markets), and Peter Elton (Operations Director), which provides the catalyst for the company's determined and carefully formulated assault on the global market. " "Harman Technology Ltd." - doesn't have much ring to it, but I guess we may as well get used to hearing it more and more. What next: "Genesee Valley Gelatin and Rendering Works, Inc., doing business as 'Kodak'." SignatureNicholas O. Lindan, Cleveland, Ohio Consulting Engineer: Electronics; Informatics; Photonics.

" Note also that one of the technology directors listed above - Simon Galley, the Sales Director, European and Export Markets - is now a regular contributor over on APUG. He has been soliciting input and reporting progress as Harman (Ilford) continues to expand its product line. This expansion includes the reintroduction of several previously discontinued products (postcard paper, various developers/fixers, etc.) as well as the introduction of a number of new products (print developers and possibly a Delta 25 B&W film). They are also currently in the process of putting together a special coating run of HP5+ and FP4+ film to be cut into a dizzying array of (photographer-requested) non-standard sheet sizes, most of which have not been commercially available for quite a long time.

Any buzz on 5X7 ? I've been hoping for D400 in 5X7 for some time.

"John" responded: > Any buzz on 5X7 ? I've been hoping for D400 in 5X7 for some time. Not as part of this particular run. Apparently the consensus of input opinion was that availability of both the HP5+ and FP4+ emulsions was sufficient (along with a little D100) to cover the needs of the ULF photographers for which this special program was targeted. Ilford's willingness to offer this program to what is arguably the tiniest sliver (ultra-large format) of an already diminished film market niche speaks volumes to their commitment, IMHO. Additional information, including ordering deadlines, sheet sizes (16 total, counting metric) and participating dealerships may be found at: http://www.ilford.com/html/us_english/ILFOPRO/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=7072 Ken > "Ken Nadvornick" wrote: > [quoted text clipped - 31 lines] > > Ken WOW!!! 20x24 sheet film!! I'd love to see the camera to use that, and the results would be just amazing. At $26 a pop tho, you'd want to get everything just perfect before you pressed the shutter. > > Additional information, including ordering deadlines, sheet sizes (16 total, > > counting metric) and participating dealerships may be found at: [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > the results would be just amazing.

I've reviewed the thread and note that the only item close to my needs is the " Delta Pro100 13x18cm $48.63 1743481". Note that this is a fairly high price consindering that Kodak T-Max 100 5X7 is just $71.95 for a 50 sheet box. John Just to play fair, I also ran across a Kodak T-Max 400 ULF pool purchase being sponsored by JandC Photo: http://www.jandcphoto.com/index.asp?PageAction=Custom&ID=24 Ken >Just to play fair, I also ran across a Kodak T-Max 400 ULF pool purchase >being sponsored by JandC Photo: > >http://www.jandcphoto.com/index.asp?PageAction=Custom&ID=24 Nice ! Unfortunately it caught me at a bad time financially. I'd love to get a couple boxes of TMY 5X7. Do you think they'll be doing this again ? == John - Photographer & Webmaster www.puresilver.org - www.xs750.net > Nice !

My sheet film needs currently extend only so far as the "miniature" 4x5 format, so I don't get involved in these ULF pool purchases. But I'd love to find a reasonable used 8x10 or 11x14 camera/lens combination some day and just eliminate my D5 from the process. Try contacting JandC directly at: http://www.jandcphoto.com And, as it seems these types of cottage industry sourcings for traditional materials are the wave of the future (albeit not necessarily a bad future), if you or someone you know are fans of the now discontinued Kodak Azo silver chloride contact paper, check out this link for a just-initiated, huge pool purchase of a newly-developed possible successor to Azo: http://www.michaelandpaula.com/mp/AzoForum/one.asp?ID=9056&PgNo=&GID=9056&CI D=7 Ken > What next: "Genesee Valley Gelatin and > Rendering Works, Inc., doing business as 'Kodak'."
