RTZ, Petzi,
Panoramic camreas most likely do not accept 220 film !
They usually work with the film numbering on the backing paper and don?t have an adjustable backing plate !
So these users are lost for 220.
If Fuji or Kodak decided to stop 220 then it will be impossible to get them to do it again unless someone puts down a huge pile of money which makes it worth doing for them.
This someone will most likely loose part of his money because there is a reason why Kodak and Fuji stopped other than equipment failure (as with Ilford).
The reason is: they lost money on the product.
Prices of 2,5x or 3x actually means 25% and 33% more expensive than 120 (broken down to the individual frame).
This is what I wanted to hear because this is what I assumed.
In my opinion this is way too little to make any project in relation to this happen as this does not even cover liquidating costs of an close to the end of date stock.
Regards,
Mirko
