Earlier in the week I was alerted of Lomography coming out with a new film. "Lomochrome Purple 400" is almost (though not quite) the same as Kodak Aerochrome, that wonderful purple cast aerial surveillance film of old. No filter, or special development needed.
There have been rumours of them making bids for the Kodak film stock. I think that would be amazing. They have the popularity, and fan base to really be successful with that. If you hadn't heard Kodak was selling all their patents, and film stock, then please get with it.
They had a pre-sale for this film on Lomography's site. Film is set to be delivered in July. I had it open in a tab to buy when I had some more money. Went to do it this morning. Sold out of 400 speed 35mm. Bummed. I gave them my E-mail address to be alerted for the second batch.
I was first made aware of this from the great site http://japancamerahunter.com/

You may remember these photos from a previous post of mine. I have always been a fan of this look.
