    Is there really a revival of analog photography

    ...reason, and notes to financial statements are unlikely to be very specific about film sales - with the possible exception of Instax. Kodak Alaris' financial statements might be interesting in future years, but as the 2020 statements are likely to reflect mostly the divestment to Sino Promise...

    Kodak Pro Image 100 Vs Gold 200/ 100

    ...have a lot to do with supplying and servicing processing labs. Which includes dealing with the technical requirements of scanners. And Kodak Alaris' marketing efforts are also highly connected with the needs of labs. I guarantee that the criteria for effective scanning played a large role in...

    Velvia 100 Discontinued in the U.S.

    As someone who provided requirements to suppliers that they then satisfied by designing and manufacturing things, I too participated in design reviews and production readiness reviews. I'd never claim to have designed or manufactured those things. :smile:

    Velvia 100 Discontinued in the U.S.

    Kodak Alaris people were in the design rooms and on the production design floor. The marketing departments of the various Kodaks were full of engineers, as well as people trained mainly in marketing. It was a very close, symbiotic relationship, and that continued after Kodak Alaris came into being.

    Those are requirements. They're characteristics Kodak Alaris desired. Eastman Kodak satisfied Alaris' requirements through its internal process of design and manufacture, carried out by engineers, scientists and production personnel.

    Velvia 100 Discontinued in the U.S.

    Not entirely correct. Many/most of the staff at Kodak Alaris used to be employees of Eastman Kodak or one of its international subsidiaries. They were the employees in the marketing and distribution parts of the business. And just as in most businesses that both manufacture and market their...

    Velvia 100 Discontinued in the U.S.

    Yes, it is. Both are correct statements. However, Apple designs its crapple, then contracts manufacture to Foxcon. Marketing entity Kodak Alaris relies entirely on Eastman Kodak for Ektachrome 100 design and manufacture.

    Isn't that the same as saying Foxconn makes the iPhone, not Apple.

    The respective contract never was made public. But Kodak is likely rather just a toll-manufacturer for Kodak Alaris.

    Kodak Alaris does not make film. They're strictly a marketing company. Ektachrome is made by Eastman Kodak in the U.S.

    Ektachrome 100 is made by Kodak Alaris, a British company.

    TMY-2 Backing Paper Gloss

    As I understand it, the solution involved all parties - Eastman Kodak, Kodak Alaris and the backing paper supplier/printer. And it was very challenging. And the knowledge of how it was done is considered an important trade secret.

    Sprint Standard vs HC-110 with Kodak Tri-X

    you might consider making contact sheets of whichever results you want to inspect/compare. unless the negative is your final product it really has little to do with your results. your "cooked" film might look good as a print or inverted scan or however you like to present the images, I...

    Sprint Standard vs HC-110 with Kodak Tri-X

    So, I cooked the Tri-X too long (about 2x!) due to using old data. I pulled the Tri-X sheet from Kodak Alaris and proper time would have been something like 2 minutes at that temperature...clearly not recommended. Plus, the data sheet only provides times for dilution A and B, so I would have to...

    Fujifilm Quicksnap Waterproof..... loaded with Kodak 800 ISO film

    Misfire. That's good information. I've been shooting Kodak film all along never had a problem. I too shoot more medium format, so 120 is what I use most. I did see where Kodak Alaris posted something about a temporary change in the 135 magazine end caps. Best Mike

    Kodak XTOL trade concern announcment

    That is actually on the Kodak Alaris site. It is the graphic they use when someone tries to link to an expired former link on their site - in that case the page where one used to find information about Kodak chemicals (which is no longer part of the Kodak Alaris business). The new owners of...

    New HC-110 Formula

    My researches indicate that the exclusive distributor in Europe for Kodak Alaris chemicals was - wait for it - Tetenal. And the retailers there are still looking to get their Kodak branded chemicals from Tetenal. And don't know what is going to happen with Kodak Alaris out of the picture.

    New HC-110 Formula

    One complicating factor about all this is that Kodak Alaris never sold directly to retailers - only distributors. So the possibility exists that any retailer who still shows a picture of the old type on their website, may be buying from a distributor who, contrary to most current practices...

    Kodak XTOL trade concern announcment

    Same for Kodak Alaris and Eastman Kodak before them (for several years). Manufacturing had been contracted out for many years. The recent quality problems coincided with US based Kodak Alaris (in most marketing capacities) attempting to bring manufacturing back to the USA, after Tetenal went...

    Is there really a revival of analog photography

    As near as I can research, Kodak Alaris film revenue went up from $54 million to $71 million Mar 2019 to Mar 2020 with a gross profit of $19 million. What happened during the last twelve months, I don;t know. application-pdf

    Tri-X v HP5+ and Tri-X v Delta 400 - The Naked Photographer Comparison Tests

    Ilford's times do not produce the same contrast between the two emulsions. I've not looked specifically at ID-11 and these two emulsions, however, my experience with other Ilford developers have shown that the times listed between Ilford and Kodak films does not produce the same contrast when...

    Tri-X v HP5+ and Tri-X v Delta 400 - The Naked Photographer Comparison Tests

    Would the above then lead to HP5+ and Tri-X in the same developer, ID11, at the box speed and for the Ilford times for both films result in this let's say, apparent difference in shadow detail and box speed. I mention ID11 as Ilford gives times for both films at 400 so presumably ( but this...
