Well, 2024 is over. For the film photographer, there was lots of news about cameras. New cameras, improved cameras and more. Lets just list the cornucopia of cameras that will keep on giving into 2025.
- Intrepid Camera introduced a new electronic shutter and lens for large format cameras in a Kickstarter.
- Chroma Camera released the 2024 CubePan Advanced 35mm camera and a technical lens cone, with rise, fall and shift for the Chroma Six17 series camera.
- MiNT introduced the Rollei 35AF 35mm camera, PetaPixel reviews this camera.
- Ricoh Imaging released the Pentax 17 half-frame camera, which Kosmo Foto reviews.
- Lomography introduced the Lomomatic 110 camera, in the subminiature 110 format. Kosmo Foto has a review for this camera as well.
With everything from subminiature to large format covered last year, there must be something for the film photographer to be happy about. While the reviews may not be as glowing as one would hope, the fact is that usable cameras are being produced and if companies see a positive reaction from the market, revised and improved versions may follow.
Thank you for reading Ag+ Process. Have a Happy New Year!
