Kosmo Foto reports that High german photographic supplier Adox has announced information technology is releasing a new color film to help fund inquiry for future color emulsions. Instead of creating a crowdfunding campaign, as some other film producers accept washed over the years, Adox has decided to make Color Mission, a 200 ISO movie designed to bring in acquirement that Adox plans to utilise for research and evolution of new color emulsions.

Colour Mission 200 was co-developed and co-produced alongside an unnamed company that Adox says went into insolvency shortly after the first production run. Thankfully, Adox says this initial run should 'be enough for this time, and mayhap a bit longer,' any that ways. As for the name, Adox says it was intentionally chosen, as the '35mm rolls are on a big mission to give the analogue community a cute production while investing into the future of flick inquiry and production, which is ane of the most sophisticated challenges in the analog industry.'

According to Adox, Color Mission 200 delivers 'delicately vibrant minty greens, peachy reds [and] airy grain,' all traits that are visible in the post-obit sample images:

Adox is ane of the oldest producers of photographic materials, with its history dating back to 1860, when it opened shop in Frankfurt, Germany. As noted past Kosmo Foto, Adox continuously produced chemicals, film and photographic paper until 1970, when its then-new owner, chemical behemothic Dupont, sold its production line machines to Fotokemika, a moving picture manufacturer based in what was then Yugoslavia, effectively dissolving the brand.

In 2003, however, Fotoimpex brought the brand proper name back from the expressionless and has been producing various photographic materials, including paper and black and white moving picture, since. Despite mainly focusing on monochrome moving-picture show, this isn't the first fourth dimension an Adox has dabbled with colour film, having produced its 'Color Implosion surreal color negative moving-picture show' that was discontinued back in 2017. Adox says its programme is to take a new color emulsion out 'in four years, perhaps.'

Color Mission is fix to keep auction February 10, 2022 via Fotoimpex's online store and at its Berlin, Federal republic of germany retail store. Private 36-exposure rolls are ready to retail for €10 / ~$xiv, not including shipping.
