I don't think they are at the color slide film stage yet. They are still struggling to fill the P30 "pre-orders". I wish them luck, but it is slow going.

So just for those backers who havent received anything I contacted ferrania and they said they had no record of me in their database.
Might be worth checking in because it seems like they have just taken the money and ran with it.

Shot (Nikon F2, 50/1.2) and developed first roll (Rodinal 1:50, 8min).

The staircase photo brought the famous (or infamous) Brown Lady of Raynham Hall photograph to mind.

so I guess they are still shipping out what they call "switchers" as well as shipping out pre orders. They are putting them both in a first come first serve basis. So there is no priority for backers who switched. Even though I'm pretty sure they said that backers would have a first chance to switch over before they opened up the pre orders...
Anyways If anyone still hasnt received their order it might be worth contacting about but otherwise seems like patience will pay off.

Dave Bias (on APUG) said that order numbers are not a good way to determine when film will be shipped. Your CC will be charged first, then it ships (you’ll get an email and a tracking number). My five rolls of P-30 are in transit right now (three hours away) and I should get them tomorrow.

My first shot using Ferrania P-30. Leica MP w/Canon 50/0.95, probably at F1.6. D-76. I like this stuff. Very rich tones.

Scan looks very dirty. Is that film flaw...or just dust? Aside from that, the silver rich film looks awesome. Incredible tones and contrast.

It is obviously dust. Why or how would that be a film flaw?!

Yes, it is dust, and some remnants of dried photo flow. My fault for being a bit careless when drying the film.
The tones are rich. Comments on APUG suggest that the true ISO may be closer to 40 than 80. I’m thinking that may be true, but won’t know until I scan more on the first roll I shot (at ISO 80). Considering that this is an “alpha” film, it’s impressive. I look forward to shooting roll #2.

I'm really happy with P30 as well. Very "rich" tones without feeling too contrasty. This film is going to be great for flat light and grey days. Supposedly in part that it is less sensitive to red wavelengths than other modern panchromatic films.
Here's one shot at ISO 80, developed in D-76 full strength, with a Nikon F (FTn) and 35/2 AI lens:

That looks really nice! So many textures.
