A BRAND-NEW FILM: LomoChrome Color ’92

In this episode, we take a look at the brand new LomoChrome Color ’92 that Lomography just released. I received an early test roll and shot it together with my buddy Marc Rebillet with his Leica M6 TTL in New York City. LomoChrome Color ’92 is a brand-new color negative film emulsion rated at ISO 400 that can be developed in the standard C-41 process. Initially, it will only be available as 35mm but Lomography intends to also produce it as 120 and 110 rolls in the future. It will be sold in individual boxes as well. The new film’s marketing material and packaging takes you back to the punchy and sometimes surreal colors of 1990s movies. The official material points out that the film may be used in all lighting conditions, be it daylight or tungsten, and still produce original color representations. It comes with a rich film grain, “fascinating blue tones, clear red tones and glowing yellow tones” combined with “tender, colder undertones”. All this with good dynamic range. The manufacturer describes the film as “the next step in Lomography’s film production journey, a completely NEW Color Negative film formula since the reveal of the successful LomoChrome Metropolis film in 2019.” To me, this sounded very promising and I found the cover image quite intriguing. It reminded me of Japanese independent movies shot on film and I couldn’t wait to give it a try. Furthermore, I find it worth supporting that companies are still setting out to create new emulsions in the face of all the potential obstacles. So, let’s give this film a try.
