Bad news indeed

erm Reala is getting the chop.

It would appear from the limited research I've done that it's Neopan in 120 film format that is being discontinued not the 35mm version.

That's what I said

Sorry Matt, just went into 'OMG what are these people thinking?' mode, should really learn to read things properly :bonk::bonk::bonk:

Is there a straightforward link with the details of this?

This is where I got the info from and found out about - http://www.bjp-online.com/public/showPage.html?page=873759

I'm guessing there would be some info over at APUG as well

Sad news but we all know the film market is shrinking so obviously the less profitable lines will get canned over time.

Dang it Neopan in my staple black and white 400 film

Only the 120 is being discontinued, 35mm looks safe for the time being.

I use the 400CN version (35mm) and would be very annoyed if this was discontinued!

Sometimes people just want the bare facts, plus my news page is actaully just a Wordpress blog, but does it really matter?!?

With new sites such as http://www.minutefilm.co.uk/ just being created it looks like film we still be around for a while yet

Bad times, looks like I'm going to have to stock up on Neopan400. I love Neopan but struggle to get enough DOF using Neopan100 with flashguns.

 

[david1701]

shame I like neopan 400 as it behaves differently to fp4

 

[ekimeno]

Damn it - Neopan's my favourite 120 film

 

[looop]

Looks like I will have to stock up now.

shame....
