Cool.

I love how "Ask your local dealer" makes it sound like a drug deal...kind of appropriate ;)

It indeed an April fools gag...  But seriously do we really want it back?  Candyfloss grass and blue inky skies? The novelty soon wore off for me when it was available. Mind you,  I feel the same for normal colour film too ;)

That was a good one.
But on the do we want it back front, I must admit that it did have a certain charm in a way... but that's probably just because I love purple.
I did modify a cheap Kodak digicam to shoot exclusively aerochrome-like images... but it's just because I had the camera lying there and not much to do...

Actually, yes. I was genuinely excited! Only shot one roll of the stuff about 10 years ago, but I thought, "Sh*t, if they bring back the IR colour film then what else might follow?"

What I've actually been waiting for for a long time is some sort of UV film... That would be great and I could probably finally figure out why bees won't pollinate my tomatoes! I'm tired of having to dress up like Maya the bee just to get enough tomatoes to eat a few sandwiches!
