Missed January's film news and rumors. Last week, I discussed the Analogue aF-1 (analog.cafe/comments/u725). Additionally, there’s a new color film that could potentially become the least expensive option, taking over from Kodak ColorPlus: analog.cafe/app/film-price… This was announced last year (kosmofoto.com/2024/05/chin…). Reflx Lab has confirmed further positive updates: "A contact from Reflx Lab who recently visited Lucky Film’s headquarters in Hebei, China, indicated that the new color film is anticipated to be released in Q2 2025. It’s expected to be the most budget-friendly color film on the market" — reflxlab.com/en-ca/blogs/n… Lucky Film previously produced color film for Kodak, but this forthcoming project will be an independent venture. It seems that Lucky is not the same as Fujifilm's new facility in China: analog.cafe/r/film-photogr… Moreover, there were speculations online about Ferrania potentially shutting down.

The Tsushima Cyanotypes is a black-and-blue photobook featuring cyanotypes by KC Ahonen, with only 200 copies available. I enjoyed turning the 76 pages of this uncoated A5-sized book and observing the 30 beautifully printed blue-on-white cyanotype images.
