    Fuji freezer film rumour

    ...chemistry from Tetenal (as long as Tetenal was in operation), wanted to buy Kodak paper as well, but that was not possible because first Kodak Alaris could not deliver (regularly) anymore, and later Sino Promise could not deliver. These labs have all switched to Fuji RA-4 paper, and to Fuji...

    Things should change now that Kodak Alaris was bought by a private investment company.

    Need advise: Portra400 green color shift while developing at home

    Finally I solved the mystery, after rounds and rounds of testing, changng chemistry, changing light box, changing process timing, the culprit turns out to be bad film. Bought Portra 400 from "柯达产品经营部" and the result is perfect. After so much hassle, I got the long sought-after Portra look! The...

    Kodak C41 2.5/5L kit and Fujihunt 5L kit - from a Bellini 1L user

    Correct - although it turned out that Eastman Kodak was the entity that the rights reverted to, after Sino Promise went under. It was they who made the choice who to re-license them to. And it is Eastman Kodak who has the production line that produces the control strips that can be used in...

    Fuji freezer film rumour

    Either the manufacturers set up their own distribution network, incur all the related costs, invest in all the necessary resources, and raise their selling price accordingly, or ... The manufacturers sell at a lower price to wholesalers, who cover all that overhead themselves, and re-sell the...

    Kodak C41 2.5/5L kit and Fujihunt 5L kit - from a Bellini 1L user

    ...to do with it.......😉 Eastman Kodak got rid of its photochemical segment in their chapter 11 crisis, and that segment was then part of Kodak Alaris. But Kodak Alaris wasn't able to run it economically and sold it, together with the RA-4 paper business, to Sino Promise Holdings, China. And...

    Lucky you! I asked my local shop in Ireland, and they ordered 4 boxes of 120 Provia 100f for me ... that was over a year ago, and they have not received any stock and the Fujifilm Irish rep says "do not bother waiting"! So I have to go via the mail order retailers mainly in Germany. I got...

    Fuji freezer film rumour

    Or the price increase comes from the wholesaler. My local film shop told me that Kodak Alaris, Fujifilm and Harman/Ilford Photo are all using wholesalers in Europe. So even big online shops like Fotoimpex cannot buy directly at the big three, but must buy via wholesalers. That increases the...

    Cinestill CS41 & Jobo

    I just now placed an order for a shelf package of 4 x 10L of Kodak Flexicolor Developer Replenisher C-41. From Cinestill. That's enough to make more than 40 liters of working strength Developer. I have the required starter for the developer and the bleach, fixer and final rinse in stock...

    Need advise: Portra400 green color shift while developing at home

    Oh, that's a good point; thanks for bringing this up. Now you mention it, there has been this problem with x-rayed Portra on the Chinese market. Maybe that's the cause; it's very well possible! No, that's not the problem and long fixing will not make the dyes in Portra become colorless...

    Need advise: Portra400 green color shift while developing at home

    Many Portra400s have X-ray and heat fogging problems. Please make sure you buy the imported films from Kodak Alaris dealers. In China, I usually recommend you to buy from "柯达产品经营部". By the cyan D-min of the film.I think your problem with the film itself. Another problem is that your fixing time...

    Of course, I was talking about Fujifilm 200/400. Fujifilm C400 is a made up fantasy. Which Kodak film did you find in short supply in the last year? Thanks @aranzebia! This pretty much kills the hope Fuji is coating film in China :(

    Hopefully, Kodak will make up the difference in film available now that Kodak Alaris was sold to a private investor that has money to invest to expand operations, (assuming Eastman Kodak's production doesn't slow things down.)

    Kodak Alaris - sold

    The best estimate I could make from combing financials is about one-third. In terms of print reporting element making more money... a lot more. EDIT: No matter, the best news is that both Eastman Kodak and Kodak Alaris openly support photographic film, even though it is a minority/niche product.

    Catching up after taking a holiday. I am now cautiously optimistic rather than cautiously pessimistic. It seems that Alaris wants to grow it's business while retaining the distribution chain for Kodak consumer films. In the short term this probably means no change whatsoever for us. Medium term...

    So there's different , Kodak standard and B&H, perfs on still and movie Ektachrome? I have a 400' roll and 135, I suppose I could check. Makes sense that there's different perfs.

    Unless, perhaps, one was working for the two Kodak Alaris business units sold in FY21, PPDS and AI Foundry. AS you noted, Kodak Alaris has been in a continual state of evolution with numerous business changes, while still maintaining their core business activities. For me the thing to be...

    ...The pandemic era was when the Board squelched the initial sale plans largely, it seems, that they were showing profit based (and this is their words) on continuing demand for film and the selective increase in prices. Kodak Alaris Holdings did not hide htis information and published it openly.
