Back to the future?
FERRANIA IS BACK
Italian film and camera brand Ferrania is coming back. Once a major player in motion picture films for the Italian film industry, it fell on hard times. In the late sixties it was bought by 3M. but soon after it then faded away. Now is has come to life thanks to successful
a Kickstarter fundraising project that raised the necessary cash. A company called FILM Ferrania will use the money to re-commission, re-tool and re-redesign existing machinery to modern standards from the closed Ferrania plant so that it can begin to manufacture film once more. At the outset the production will be for 35mm and 120 roll formats for stills, and
Super 8 and 16mm movie film. Go figure. Film may not be dead after all. But one must ask: where are the Super 8 cameras today?
