Harman Phoenix II

Harman just announced Phoenix II, the successor of Phoenix, their experimental colour negative film. Phoenix II replaces the “limited edition” Phoenix, improving on colour rendition, and offering more exposure latitude. Available in both 120 and 135.

Don’t have it, so I can not tell. But here is from around the web:

– Petapixel Harman Phoenix II is a Brand-New Color 35mm and 120 Film Stock, presenting the Harman promotional images taken by various early recipients.

– JCH Film News: Harman Phoenix II rises with a few pictures.

– Kosmofoto Harman Technology releases Phoenix II colour negative film, followed up by First rolls: Harman Phoenix II (35mm) and First rolls: Harman Phoenix II (120).

If you liked Phoenix (the red box) then stock up. It is until supplies last.

New Harman Red

Harman Technologies announced the Harman Red 125.

It’s a 35mm “redscale” negative film in the standard C-41 process. It’s a new emulsion based of the Phoenix colour film. Rated at 125 ISO it can be shot between 50 and 400 ISO for different effect. It comes in a 36 exposure roll.

DPReview has some more info.

Glad to see Harman investing in new films.

Hammish Gill for 35mmc posted Harman Phoenix 120 – My First Rolls.

Interesting to see what a new colour emulsion by a company that doesn’t have decades of colour film experience brings. Whatever we might think of the result, it is very welcome and encouraging. Let’s hope the whole thing doesn’t get discontinued.

News: Harman Phoenix now in 120

Kosmofoto tells us Harman Technology releases 120 version of Phoenix 200 film.

Harman Technology is the owner of Ilford, the well known black & white film photography brand and Kentmere. Phoenix is their brand new colour negative film. It’s an original emulsion, not a repackaging that was released in 135 format last December. The 200 ISO film is now available in 120 format.

This is great news.
