BIG SCOOP!!! WORLDWIDE EXCLUSIVE !!! THE MOST MODERN COLOUR FILM, AVAILABLE IN SINGLE-8 CARTRIDGES.

Filmmakers who shoot with the best motion picture camera ever built, the Fujica ZC1000, or the smallest S8 camera, the Fujica P2, can be happy again with this great news that comes from Japan: Retro Enterprises will begin next week to sell the best and most modern colour reversal 100 asa film, manufactured y perforated in the Western World, LOADED IN SINGLE-8 CARTRIDGES with 12 meters of film.

This is very important as accurated perforation is essential when you, as professional filmmaker, wants to take advantage of the Fujica ZC1000's advantages in terms of multiple rewinds,  reversing filming, and steadiness. By marketing reasons this 100 ASA film is called RK100D, when sold in Single-8 cartridges.

The price of each cartridge with 12 meters, with processing!, is only 55 euros, which includes the return postage from the laboratory.

But there is more news: Retro Enterprises makes a limited production of the long-awaited reversal High Speed Provia with 400 ASA.  I have tested it and it´s incredible!

Delivery from Japan to European Union is very fast: 3 days only!!!

EU has a fairly new trade agreement with Japan, so if all is well consumer purchases should arrive as if it were shipped from inside EU.

RK100D, what? Ah,  you know which film is... ;-)

Next week, please, read the web page of Retro Enterprises for the order form: http://www.retro8.com/english/englishindex.html
