I'll join in with a hearty "thanks Simon"!! I love 665 film, and I'm down to one last box, sigh... It'd be great to have that manufactured again.

Marc!

And thanks from me, both here and for the personal reply. Pilford? ;-) I guess this better stops...

I am very glad to hear Ilford Instant Imaging is being considered!
Simon if you were down in Oz ide Hug you! The dedication from you and your team at Ilford to the analog medium is astounding!

I'm not a Polaroid user but would welcome Ilford stepping in. It would at least keep the monochrome side in a duopoly.

Once again Ilford proves they're in it for the long haul. Even considering something like this speaks volumes. More Thanks.

I don't think I could say it any better. Hats off to Ilford.

I doubt the licensing would be too expensive because the patents have run out and because a third party already found it feasible to produce a time zero clone.
