I wish someone will bring back not only 110 film, but also bring back
new 110 film cameras. I wish they will also bring back 110 film
selection from 100, 200,and 400 speed color print film. It would be
nice if they bring back black & white 110 print film again. It would
also be nice if they could bring back color slide 110 film again and
bring back new 110 slide film projectors. I miss all of this.


Ah, well, I miss gasoline at 29 cents a gallon, my hair, and being
able to buy and fit into pants with a 30 inch waist. I don't really
miss 110 film.


29 cents a gallon! Hell! I can remember buying regular at a Hess
station in Utica for 19.9¢ per gallon.
Ah! The fond memories of a 30 inch waist. I was a little more athletic
in those days.

As far as 110 film goes, times change, but Adox has something in mind.
So any of those 110 nostalgia buffs who desire grain in all your shots
just keep your ear to the ground.

They've had that up for over a year. they don't seem to be moving
very quickly. In the meantime, I learned to reload 110 cassettes so I
could continue to use my Pentax Auto 110. I've got better cameras,
but it's such a sweet little system that I hate to shelve it.
