FujiFilm Officially Kills NeoPan Acros 100\\xa0

It\'s official. FujiFilm has announced the discontinuation of Acros 100. Written on a previous post, we believe that FujiFilm got out of the film game before the resurgence. Because of the filmgrain.es article and connections to FujiFilm\\xa0 in addition to Doc Kaps meeting with FujiFilm execs to save FP-100C, we believe this to be enough evidence to think the machinery is long gone.

Kodak Announces Ektachrome E100 in 16mm

Let\'s get it out of the way. There\'s another pushback on the timeline. It is now slated for late summer/early fall 2018. It\'s okay though. The gap is getting smaller and smaller it\'s important that Kodak has a successful launch for Ektachrome. When the article was posted, 35mm was not mentioned and people started to get concerned. We tweeted Matt Stoffel at Kodak and has confirmed that 35mm is on the same timelines as Super 8 and 16mm.

We believe the announcement of 16mm format is the result of a survey Kodak put out about the super 8 camera in early February.

Adorama

On April 4, 2018, Adorama Learning Center writer, Mason Resnick, posted an article called, \\u201c5 reasons why I am never going back to Film Photography.\\u201d We posted a Google cache link since all articles by Mr. Resnick have been taken down. The REAL reason why photographers got angry is because it\'s another "Film vs. Digital" article. We get it, every point Resnick writes is accurate. But everybody has their own reason for shooting film.

Things went from bad to worse really quick when photographer, Mike Fraser, discovered the image of a Leica M3 is identical to the image of a Leica M3 on Ken Rockwell\'s website. Fraser questioned Resnick of the similarities. Resnicks response, "We must have identical Leicas." When that comment did not pass muster, the comment was deleted and ultimately sent the article into viral mode among the photography community. The watermark is in a very difficult spot to crop out. Ken places it where you really have to intentionally remove it.

On 4/6 Adorama issues an\\xa0article titled\\xa0We Are Sorry\\xa0in response to the fallout. The article acknowledges the improper use of Ken Rockwell\'s image and offered compensation. According to PetaPixel the amount is $1,000.

Now that Adorama is on the radar, people began to audit Resnick\'s previous writings and discovered an article posted prior to the Ken Rockwell incident. Images from Bellamy Hunt\'s article, \'Camera Historica: The Sean Flynn Leica M2\' details the story war photojournalist and his Leica M2. The same images in Bellamy\'s article were used without his approval on Adorama\'s blog\\xa0(Google cached link).

As a result, all articles written by Resnick have been taken down.

Photowalk Website

Photographer, Martin Smith, has built a website tailored for photowalks and photo meetups. There are disadvantages to big sites like Meetup.com and Eventbrite that don\'t always fit the needs of a photowalk. It is quite popular in Europe and we want to help him make this a popular tool for the photo community around the world.\\xa0
