new version of Ilford emulsions ?

[dpowis]

I have received from England a bunch of Ilford film (mostly HP5s),

and the package says ILFORD HARMAN technology on the package.

 

Apparently, something changed in the production process. The

typeface of the film markings has changed a bit (I konw, big deal),

and a few other things changed too.

 

The film curl has been reduced, and I have no residual dyes left in

the film (my previous batches of HP5 had more purple stuff left on,

with the same fix/rince process).

 

Have any of you experienced this ?

Ilford film is now Ilford Harman Ilford Ltd. makes inkjet paper they are no longer the same company. So all future Ilford Harmen products will bear the new name. Harman was the founder of Ilford film in Ilford England. The process of making the products is the same.

Obviously the name of the company has changed. Daniel's query is: has the film changed?

Phil, obviously I answered that by saying, The process is the same. If you doubt it send them an e-mail, they are cordial.

 

Daniel, I would guess the differences you see are due to fresher film.
