Recently, Rollei announced a new range of B&W films, in sheet, 120 and 35mm
sizes.
Details are now becoming available.
The emulsion of ROLLEI R ³is made up of three extremely thin layers with
silver halides of different size and three different degrees of
sensitivity. This technology leaves a very wide margin for
controlling the properties of the material by suitable selection of
developers and development time. As a result, ROLLEI R ³ allows the entire
spectrum from fine -grain low-speed images (ISO
25/15 °) to maximum-speed images (ISO 6400/39 °) to be used with
considerably better shadow detail and finer tonal rendering than with films
pushed the conventional way.
