Danner Posted July 27, 2021 Share #1 Posted July 27, 2021 Advertisement (gone after registration) Pretty sure it's repacked Foma 400, but it is being well received, and indicates further renewed interest in film photography. Very Cool, IMHO... Vid Purchase Link 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted July 27, 2021 Posted July 27, 2021 Hi Danner, Take a look here YouTube Ribsy Selling His Own Film. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
Steve Ricoh Posted July 28, 2021 Share #2 Posted July 28, 2021 Very much a rip off if you ask me. In terms of U.K. pricing, Forma 400 c£4.00, EZ400 £5.50. The only difference as far as I can see: instead of a plastic container for the film EZ400 comes in a recycled bog roll. Heres one less than happy, yet gullible, customer who ordered 10 rolls without engaging brain. Never again! 😡 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
250swb Posted July 29, 2021 Share #3 Posted July 29, 2021 (edited) I honestly have never heard of 'Ribsy' but can only applaud how easy it must be to get film made for you. Given the retail price he must need to sell it for to make a profit (usually +60% on trade price) the only important question is how many rolls do you need to order from the manufacturer to be 'trade'? But we could all have our own film, ok its Forma 400 or whatever, but the kudos on the Leica Forum when the questions come in 'what film do you use?', and you answer 'my own' and your life is complete! This makes brassing a brand new camera look like a children's game in the vanity stakes. Edited July 29, 2021 by 250swb 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Ricoh Posted July 29, 2021 Share #4 Posted July 29, 2021 Another “new” film, I wish! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/kosmofoto/kosmo-foto-agent-shadow-35mm-bandw-film-and-the-36-frames This guy has designed really nice outer cardboard box, but what lies beneath ?? Some have guessed at Kentmere or possibly Foma (again), but a new film I doubt. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some have guessed at Kentmere or possibly Foma (again), but a new film I doubt. A guy called Dan Rubin has posted some initial samples of this film on his Instagram account. Looks pretty nice to be honest. https://instagram.com/danrubin?utm_medium=copy_link 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
