They are available through our distributors, you can find a list here: analogico.adel2000.it/how-to-buy/

We considered the idea of supporting super 8 and 16mm cine film but the available space in our machine is not enough to fit even the film contained in a super 8 cartridge. At the moment there is no plan for supporting any movie format (8mm, 16mm)

@@AnalogicobyAdel thanks for the response.

did you get it?

@@erlendase3354 I did! I’ve been using it a couple of months and am about to post a review video

@@TonyBrown311 looking forward to it 🤗

It depends, we produce them in batches so when they're in stock delivery time might take about a week, when they're not in stock it might take a few months

About 1kW when the heating element is fully on and between 100 and 200W otherwise

@@AnalogicobyAdel thanks

Lol. A rotary processor with pneumatically actuated chemistry has existed as a concept since the 70s, so if they did copy someone, it was a 50 year old pattent, which Jobo, Osiris, Therm and even Lukas Fritz used as the basis for their design.

@@imvisier9925 lukas didn't invent the wheel, he also didn't copy a machien verbadum

@@domenicming9551 Neither did Dev.A. Their machine layout is nothing like that of the filmomat, not to mention the entire coupling and chemical feed mechanism for the canister is completely different, as is the design for the canister itself. The Dev.A also uses an external water supply for the heating chamber and chemistry flush, which in itself dictates an entirely different internal pneumatic system design. All this not to mention the form factor and component manufacturing processes, which are also different. Besides the very principal system level concept of the design, the Dev.A and Filmomat share very little, and as I said that principal design concept has existed since the 70s.

And who was this? And what happened to it?

@@rockhills It was produced by a major film manufacture before digital appeared .It took only three months to produce .Once presented and demonstrated to the company for assessment it was never heard of again. It was intended for news photographers in the field.

Yes the water that is manually put into the water bath will come out of th ewaste outlet on the back of the machine. We would recommend a 15 or 20L tank, 10L is about the same amount of water that the water bath will hold so a 10L tank would often be on the edge of overflowing.

@@AnalogicobyAdel Thanks Adel

really looking forward your experience with this machine.

Can't wait to see your videos. subscribed

Not without some compromises or workarounds. Unfortunately it cannot remove the remjet on its own and it's not possible to set different temperatures for different steps of a process. The remjet can be removed manually before using the machine and the whole process can be configured to run at 41C (the developer is the most critical step), we haven't run tests yet but we will.

Been on contact with Analogico and wanted to give people coming across this video an update. We also own this machine as well. The reason for the larger amount of chemicals needed compared to a Jobo tank is because the tanks are larger in diameter compared to Jobo. the size of the tanks are larger and necessary so that the center core that holds the reels can freely rotate magnetically within the tank (thus there needs to be a good amount of clearance between the reels & the tank walls. I was told I technically can use less chemicals (and they have adjusted the recommended minimum amount of chemicals needed to develop when they first announced this product), but they can't in good heart recommend that milliliter amount due to not knowing how users may be loading up their reels. Some people may habitually load their film on reels so that the film is closer to the center core vs loading film and leaving it closer to the edge of the reel (if loaded this way, you technically can get away with using less chemicals, but the recommended amount is to ensure enough chemicals is enough to develop film that may be loaded closer to the center of the reel.)

You are right

And the filmomat seems to be in the game for some more years lol

yeah they deff copied him VERBADUM. I hate people who have more money that take advantage of others.

@@domenicming9551 If he didnt want to be "taken advantage" of he should have pattend it, but then he couldnt because the filmomat is really just another rendition of the same rotary pneumatically actuated processor that has existed as a concept since the 70s.

Two obvious differences are this machine will process 8x10 film, and also supports the full 6-bath E6 process. The filmomat does neither of these.

A pump moves the chemistry to the film tank directly, there are no other in-between containers inside the machine. Part of the tubes are obviously shared but between each chemistry step some clean water flows through the tubes to remove residues from the previous step.

Yes, large format development will be possible, we will provide our own custom reels

@@AnalogicobyAdel When do you think you'll be making those reels?

Unfortunately we are a still behind schedule with our large format reels, at the moment we can't give you a precise estimate of whne they will be ready.

Unfortunately i don't think it's possible, even by removing features the costs of building one of these would still be too high to reduce prices below 1000€

Hopefully, in about one or two months we'll start selling the machine!

It will be around 4500 euro in Europe, for North America we are in the process of finding distributors so prices may vary

@@AnalogicobyAdel “She will be mine. Oh yes, she will be mine...”

Hi, we have just started production, the machine should be available in the very near future. A release date will come soon.

@@AnalogicobyAdel Hi! what is the current estimated price for this? I'm very interested in purchasing it for my small lab

It will be around 4500€ for end users, we will publish the complete and definitive price list on our webiste in the next few days

@@AnalogicobyAdel I am looking forward for purchasing this machine for my small lab. It could be a good upgrade to the old equipment,

@@AnalogicobyAdel Super excited! thanks!

Personally, I will wait for the Beringher model !

@@cythardwell3069 Where can we find info about it?

The largest tank we have will be able to contain six 35mm rolls on Paterson or Jobo 1500 reels

Not going to happen unless they come up with a new concept... Look at all the precision made components and various pneumatics it requires. Im surprised they can offer it for as low as 3.5k euros.

We will have three tank sizes. The small one requires at least 650ml of chemistry, the medium one requires at least 850ml and the large one requires 1L.

Yes, it's about 19.5kg when empty and 35.5kg when fully loaded with water and chemistry. Dimensions are 60x28x51 cm

If the machine water inlet is connected (it also works perfectly fine without it) and if the process needs a tempered water bath, like E6 and C41, it's possible to add as many washing steps as you like. In that case the water bath will be automatically replenished and heated during the process. It's also possible to program the machine to use the water bath for washing steps even for processes that don't require temperature control, like black and white negative development, even if it's a bit wasteful.

A lot of people use a wash between each step, but from my understanding this is not defined in the process. The chemistry is designed to take some contamination from upstream residuals. The large processors in commercial labs follow the C-41/E-6 recipe to the letter and that is what this product is doing. The only chemical that can’t tolerate any amount of adulterants is the developer. Because oxygen breaks down your dev, it will expire before the rest of the chemistry; especially for the home developer that does not use nitrogen agitation. There is hours of reading on forums on the subject if you are interested in going down the rabbit hole. Stay analog my friend.

Our machine also lets some water flow through the internal tubes after each chemistry step to remove any residues left from the previous step. Even if the chemistry is designed to tolerate some cross contamination we want to reduce it as much as possible

Prices are not definitive but it will be around 4500€.

Prices are not definitive but it will be around 4500€.

Me too! But then I remembered you can develop manually, and you won't need to shell out a few thousand dollars for it.

Thanks, hopefully we will be able to launch this product on the market very soon!
