Hallo, wie steht es denn um die Zukunft des Adocolor 200? Derzeit kann er nicht mehr bestellt werden. Ist mittelfristig eine Wiederbelebung geplant? Rolan...

Hello, What’s the situation regarding the future of the Adocolor 200? It’s currently no longer available to order. Are there any plans to bring it back in the medium term? Roland

Hello Roland, First of all, we need to recover from the shock of the news that the films have been discontinued. After that, we can proceed cautiously and assess whether there are any ways to save them. I’ve done a rough calculation and have come to the conclusion that a film, produced by hand, will cost at least €4.99. I’d like to tentatively ask the group whether there is still any interest. Best regards, Mirko

Hello, I wouldn’t mind paying the 4.99, but I can’t say how much of this sort of thing the market can still absorb. It would be brilliant if it were also available in black and white. Best regards, Roland

Hi Mirko, I’d be happy to take at least one. Then I could have a go with my Instamatic. And who knows, maybe I’ll end up with two or three more rolls after all. But no more than that. When it comes to cassette film, I prefer Pocket and Minox. I’ve no problem with five marks per roll. There are 35mm films that are more expensive. Best regards, Franz

...well, I’m a potential buyer too – I was actually planning to add it to my next order... I now have two fully functional Rollei A26s – the one with the Sonnar is a real joy to use :-))) – and only two rolls of film left for them... I think five euros is acceptable – if it’s really necessary, I’d even order 10 or 20 rolls in advance... Don’t let the 126 die – please... ;-)

Hello! While we’re on the subject of wishes: I’d love to get some black-and-white 35mm film. Best regards, Andreas

Hello! While we’re on the subject of wishes: I’d love to get my hands on some black-and-white pocket film. Best regards, Andreas

Hi, I’d be happy to join in on that. Couldn’t something be done with the TC27 or the N74? I’d be happy to take ten to twenty rolls straight away. As ISO 200, hence my film request. In my development process, both films work out exactly right at that speed. My point-and-shoot cameras would mercilessly cause an overexposure of a genuine 400 film, and I’m not keen on using ISO 100 in my pocket cameras. My pocket cameras are ‘genuine’ in the sense of ‘point-and-shoot’. Agfa and Revue. Best regards, Franz

...By the way, Cewe is also developing the Instamatic through dm and similar retailers for the standard film development price! I’d be happy to take 10 of them straight away – my Agfamatic 300 needs some new film, and I’ve also got about 100 proper flash cubes lying around here that I need to use up. Roland

Hello! What’s the situation with Instamatic film? Is there still a chance we’ll see new rolls of film again? Otherwise, I’d stock up from the last remaining source. I’d much prefer new black-and-white Instamatic film, though, and would be happy to support that!
