Rollei, through their distribution partner, Macodirect have
announced a new slide film to be available for pre-order soon. Called Vario
Chrome, it’s designed to be especially versatile, with an ISO rating which can
be set between 200 and 400. According to their announcement:
Rollei
Vario Chrome 135-36 is a medium to high-speed color reversal film that is
intended for photography under low-level daylight illumination or under other
light sources using proper filtration. Rollei Vario Chrome has a medium degree
of sharpness, its image results are characterized by a slightly visible grain
and a warmish image tone.
As the
name of the film suggests it has a broad exposure latitude from 200 to 400 ISO
(DX coded at 320 ISO). If you intend to project the slides we suggest to shoot
the film at 200 ISO whereas 320-400 ISO is preferable for scanning
applications.
If this film does all that Rollei claims film photographers will have another excellent tool to add to their arsenal.
