Bonjour,
Comme vous le savez nous avons investi un peu d'argent dans le projet New55 Film et recevons donc régulièrement leurs avancées.
La situation financière de ce nouveau film instantané 4x5inch progresse mais malheureusement les créateurs ont besoin de 100.000 $ très rapidement pour faire avancer leur projet.
Comment faire ?
1/ en faisant des achats sur leur site de vente :

2/ en donnant un peu d'argent :

Voila un petit résumé en anglais de la situation :
Summary
New55 FILM's technical progress is strong, but there have been
technical setbacks that cost the project about $100,000. The technical problems
have been mostly overcome but they were more costly than anticipated.
The critical Receiver Sheet coating could lead to first-piece
production in the coming weeks! There is still risk, yesterday we had a bad
result which disappointed us, so money is needed more than ever. We are
completely focused on this goal. A new product called 1SHOT(TM) will soon
appear! R3 MONOBATH DEVELOPER has started to ship. Logistics and the Shop are
coming together.
A cash shortfall threatens progress, but fundraising and
personal financing from Bob are all in various active stages. These also depend
on you. Sam and Bob continue to donate all their time but we still have to pay
others their salaries as well as rent and other expenses.
The supporters have made important recommendations, and we have
acted on several of them in product areas relating to large-format photography.
They are R3 MONOBATH DEVELOPER, 1SHOT(TM) ready loaded sheet film, sales of
photo equipment from my collection, and additional personal cash to temporarily
bridge the gap. Together these things might be enough if the flow of support
continues as it has, and they all have to happen. Will they? They will if we
want them to.
Onward!
Bob
