I guess the chinks will do what the brits couldn't and save us from Kodak's monopoly
>>
cool

>>4397257
6/7$ for 36exp and 5$ for 24exp is my bet
>>
>>4397274
$6 for 36exp would be decent, but at $5 I would buy huge packs of it if it's even halfway decent

>Comments on Redbook quoted Lucky Film’s representative saying that the intention was to offer the new film for around 40rmb (£4.40/$5.60)
if it sells for that much in the US that'd be pretty good

Maybe tariffs will skyrocket prices but in Europe and other regions it'll be feasible to see

Its not exactly saving us from kodaks monopoly if it comes from a communist country that manipulates its currencies value, creates more toxic waste lakes than a european mining firm in michigan, and uses more slave labor than elon musk, now is it?

When china joins the "competition" they break free market principles harder than US govt crony-capitalist regulation and subsidies. What you actually get is "china is coming to kill you" because the only way a western company can compete with aggressive currency manipulation, slave labor, and a total lack of environmental protections, is to move to china after they save enough profits from replacing native born americans with h1bs that are happy to be oppressed only slightly less.

If they are somehow actually good this is awful news. Globalism and free trade only works if no one is evil because evil has an inherent advantage in any economy.

This so called america you want to lose is mostly a bunch of people living under a regime and the china you think will win is rising to prominence by doing everything america did but worse. And the chinese people sure as fuck aren’t winning. They need suicide nets to keep them working.

Violent crime is down year over year and homelessness is a choice (so is taking chinese fentanyl). If you dont believe it, compare boise and spokane.

i have no regular use for film under ISO 400
>>
>>4397823
so what you are saying is you are looking forward to their ISO 400 film they will be releasing in 2025 Q2?
>>
>>4397824
Let us say yes then
>>
>what the brits couldn't
Gotta say I love the look of phoenix 200 despite its obvious flaws, and I just bought 6 more rolls.
Sure it's not cheap but I'm not poor so
>>
>>4397830
ECN-2 dev for more "normal" look when exposed at 125
>>
>>4397830
Neither am I, but if they make an iso 200 color film and price it like colorplus/gold/c200 any other rebranded film made by kodak they solve nothing
>>
Film costs mean nothing. All the money is in processing. Oh no, muh roll of film was $1.50 more!
Dev and scan: Even DIY is a fat investment.

Hope based trump just flat out bans chinese film
>>
>>4397891
amerinigger detected
opinion discarded

>C-41 dev is 4 bucks with VAT
>E-6 is 7 bucks with VAT
>black and white (ilfolab fp 40) is 6 bucks with VAT
>C-41 dev + scan (2398x3390 jpg) is 16 bucks with VAT (1205x1795 and it's half that)
>E-6/BW dev + scan (2398x3390 jpg) is 18 bucks with VAT (1205x1795 and it's half that)
all of this in a big lab in a big city

meanwhile roll of kodak portrashit 400 is 23 to 28 ameribucks with VAT but without shipping (6-7 usd minimum)
the cheapest possible color film you can get is colorplus at 10 bucks (it's discounted now from 11 usd for some reason)

so no
your economy is just full of nigger who believe they are entitled to 50 bucks an hour pressing two buttons on a machine in a cozy lab
>>
>>4397899
>my country is poor so i can afford things better. You entitled non peasants think you deserve to own homes? *dies of common cold and alcoholism*
Lol. Anyways, film expenses are all processing and its not americas fault the EU heavily taxes american goods so you dont even get our cars.
>>
>>4397891
I got everything for DIY scan from china at a reasonable price so no :)
>>
>>4397899
That's rough but it's hardly better here, I live in a big us city and buying direct film from stores it's 12-15 for stuff like gold and Fuji but nearly 20 for cinestill or portra. Cheapest color is pro image 100 but you have to buy it in 5 packs for the discount to 9.99 a roll. cheapest color dev I've found is 8 dollars and they only do c41, I would have to mail or go to another town for e-6. My cheap dev and scan place is 14 bucks a roll. It's not like we're getting steep discounts here, though I guess having to deal with shipping is an added level of suck
>>
>>4397902
I won't get into the murrican economy debate but film developing is cheaper than film itself everywhere, even the US. C41 is cheaper to develop but more expensive to buy a roll because dev is made with an automatic machine. BW is cheaper per roll but developing is made by hand and thus they charge almost twice for developing.
If the chinks deliver it's going to shake the market that's for sure, and if tariffs destroy the price advantage we're going to see some seething as well
>>
>>4397257
Will the chinese one day recreate kodachrome?
>>
>>4397887
>if they make an iso 200 color film and price it like colorplus/gold/c200 any other rebranded film made by kodak they solve nothing
If they make a svemashit tier film and price it at $2 a roll what has been solved? I'll just keep buying kodak, or expired fuji, or phoenix. Phoenix because, despite its technical flaws, it looks nice.
The lucky b&w films are worse than foma, not sure why everybody is acting like their color film won't be shit.
>>
>>4397988
>REEEEEEEEE
They specifically made the kodak film you bought until 2007. Even expired luckycolor from the days is good film. Chances are they'll deliver and you'll seethe and cope even harder than now, but we'll find out before summer
>>
>>4397899
I live in Asia and it's $USD6 for a roll of cinema repack in 35mm and another 6 bucks for develop and Noritsu scan. Life is good.
>>
>>4397988
Expired 400H is already getting too fucked up to use normally even fridge stored I found.
>>
>>4397899
>admitting to being a subhuman

>>
>>4398013
>They specifically made the kodak film you bought until 2007
Did they? AFAIK the kodak sold here was always made here, once the investment in the coating line is made it's cheaper to use it than import. Could be wrong though.
>In 2003, Eastman Kodak and China Lucky Film signed a 20-year co-operation agreement. In the agreement, contributed US$45 million in cash and provided an emulsion making line for color products for a 20 per cent stake in Lucky Film. Kodak also provided US$54.5 million and technical support to assist Lucky in upgrading its existing triacetate film base production and coating lines.[1]
>In 2007, Kodak retracted from the deal, citing the growth of digital cameras in the Chinese market, having hoped that market would remain with film in the short term.[2]
lmao western companies are such inveterate cucks. "let's give all our technology and money to china, then they will definitely be our friends after that and totally won't use that against us"
>>
>>4398082
Yup, as you have seen there are two things we can be certain of:
>They have the equipment and knowledge to manufacture film to the quality standards of Kodak
>You guys got voluntarily cucked
>>
>>4398015
Source on that weet respool of cine stock?
