The revived photochemistry company Tetenal has announced the impending release of a one-roll development kit for those wanting to try out film photography or those wanting a kit to take on-location. The Magic-Box series will include all the chemicals needed to process a roll of negative film, a transparency film or 23 sheets of 8x10in color paper, with the chemistry arriving in pre-measured quantities.
Available only in German-speaking regions at first, the company says it will extend distribution in time, as it gets production up to speed. The new company, Tetenal 1847, has risen from the ashes of the former Tetenal business after employees got together to take on the company after it faced collapse at the beginning of the year. The new business has an online store already and is beginning, it says, to work on new products - including tablet form photochemistry. In fact, though, the old Tetenal used to produce tablet chemicals as well as one-shot processing kits some time ago, but it is great to see them come back to life again.
According to the website Emulsive prices for the new Magic-Box kits will be:
TETENAL Magic Box RA-4: EUR14.95
TETENAL Magic-Box E6: EUR15.95
TETENAL Magic-Box C-41: EUR12.95
The kits arenīt listed in the online store but will be found in German retailers. For more information see the Emulsive report and the Tetenal website.
