Re: Does anyone have an interest in b&w 5" cirkut film

I thought you were out of town, Mr. Erickson.  I guess we all have our way
of computer transport.

I spoke with John Horowy, the Lotus and Bergger film franchise rep in the
US; and his only concern is to know how many of us Curkit Camera users are
there.

This is a new company, litterally open to who is out there and what film is
needed.  They'll make whatever we want.  They'll call it IPPA Curkit Film,
if we can show support for the product.

Anyone up for a trip to Europe and to meet the maker?

I would LOVE to have some spooled #5 film. I shoot 5 inch in my #6,8,and 10
Cirkuts.

What would the price be? Would it be cheaper than cutting 10 inch Kodak
Cirkut film in half? If so count me in. If not then not.

I've been talking to a film manufacturer about the possibility of making 5"
spooled cirkut film.It would be 200 ISO B&W film. They may not need the
huge order like kodak would require, but is there an interest out there?
I know of a few people who would be interested. If you haven't talked to me
about let me know. Though they may not require a huge order, it still needs
to be sufficient to make it worth while.Although only 400 5" cameras were
made, I see a lot of people still using them, and the 5" film should be
usable in al-vistas as well. Jamie
