    New Classic EZ400 - 35mm Film

    Kodak is a brand name. Eastman Kodak is not a brand name. Kodak Alaris is not a brand name. In the past, none of Kodak Canada, Kodak Pathe, Kodak Limited, Kodak Australia, Kodak South Africa or a legion of other international subsidiaries of Eastman Kodak were brand names. If Cinestill is...

    New Classic EZ400 - 35mm Film

    Other issue is Cinestill is buying Kodak movie film removing the ram jet backing and loading it into cans and reselling it. Photowarehouse also buys movie and other films in long rolls or end rolls and loads into can, but they label the film Kodak, not Kodak Alaris.

    New Classic EZ400 - 35mm Film

    I think he means that Eastman Kodak produces the film and they are sold by Kodak Alaris? :) And I think Carestream makes the Kodak branded RA-4 paper.

    Can I use E6 BLIX for C41 ?

    Just as a note, Kodak Alaris has had China plant (SinoPromise) produce all Kodak color chemistry for many years. It works great. If you can get 1x5 L of Kodak's Flexicolor Bleach C-41RA, it will drop your bleach time to 1 minute, this stuff is immortal, lasts forever, replenishment is something...

    Pretty, support your local shop. Looks to benefit EKCo not Alaris, good!

    Considerations/features to look at when purchasing a film freezer?

    ...obtained appliance designed to maintain its contents at a relatively constant (and usefully low) temperature. Refrigerators do that too. Temperature control is a real advantage. Kodak Alaris deals with this in E-30: https://imaging.kodakalaris.com/sites/default/files/wysiwyg/pro/cis_e30.pdf

    Paper Developers?

    Thanks for all the replies. I am checking them out, including the retail sources, data sheets, and costs, etc. Dektol would be fine with me, except for all the talk of root beer color and poor performance in the Alaris era of Kodak. Ilford is OK, but I'm not real keen on shipping liquids and...

    Kodak: The Rise and Fall of an American Tech Giant

    As I understand it, it was the Kodak Alaris still film marketing people who were the champions for the Ektachrome re-introduction, while the Eastman Kodak motion picture marketing people were simply supportive. And who knows what role the remaining labs played in the decision.

    Kodak XTOL trade concern announcment

    :smile: If I'm so depressing, don't watch the news :cool:. The pre bankruptcy EKCo slid so fast no one could have saved it. Bigger than any competitor. Operations around the world, mind boggling. You are right, I shouldn't be so hard on Alaris. Probably isn't more than a dozen people left that...

    Kodak XTOL trade concern announcment

    You know... You're welcome to your opinion, but here's mine: They screwed up. They tried, for the most part, to make something right that had been screwed up by others. I'm not saying you shouldn't be annoyed, but I would rather have a manufacturer that screws up, and corrects the problem...

    That is the older version. Not the intermediate version. The date is probably the "use before" date.

    Kodak XTOL trade concern announcment

    ...I bought from Foto Impex. Just a regular purchase. The two bags are glued together, not in a bag anymore. It says Made in Germany for Kodak Alaris. There is a code printed, which may indicate a date of manufacture of Jan 2021. I have an old bag of D76 left over. It expired in 2019, which...

    Mitsubishi Grace RA4 paper... manufactured by Fujifilm?

    Any Kodak branded paper was formerly being made for Kodak Alaris by Carestream in Colorado, or possibly in another plant in Brazil (I think). I don't know whether Sino Promise Holdings (who now hold the brand) has access to any manufacturing capacity in China or otherwise.

    Another reason I’m moving to strictly Ilford.

    The current Eastman Kodak and Kodak Alaris people I have had contact with are all from before the bankruptcy, and remain incredibly loyal.

    Another reason I’m moving to Ilford. Ilford is the person in the bar that you meet who may have a past, but has dealt with their baggage, and has become a respectable member of society. Kodak is the person whom you meet in the bar that has a past.... but still has kids with four different...

    From my understanding thus there never was a re-call of product by Kodak Alaris from the dealers. Or was there?

    ...in a plant that had been Eastman Kodak, then became a shared plant between Carestream and Eastman Kodak, then became a plant shared by Kodak Alaris and Carestream, and is now Carestream and ??? All of which makes it confusing if someone says they are unhappy about "Kodak" products - which...

    ...all film branded as Kodak - both still film and motion picture film, but they don't sell the still film to anyone other than Kodak Alaris. Kodak Alaris has the worldwide distribution and marketing rights for Kodak still films. Every single Kodak branded still film is manufactured by Eastman...

    Does Eastman Kodak even make film for still photography anymore? Thought it was all from Kodak Alaris, a British company.

    Cinestill launches Kodak Double-X in 120

    I doubt it. Cinestill is selling the emulsions into a market that Kodak isn’t. Cinestill isn’t even a competitor. In order to be a competitor, both have to sell into the same market and compete for the same buyers. That isn’t happening and likely never will, given the modifications needed to...

    Cinestill launches Kodak Double-X in 120

    ...questions. I expect that the fact that it is both not sold as Kodak film, and is identified as movie film stock, probably means that Kodak Alaris can't complain. I don't think there is anything to stop Eastman Kodak from contract coating for other vendors, as long as they aren't contract...

    Cinestill launches Kodak Double-X in 120

    ...for finishing. I assume this new film is made the same way. I am interested in how Cinestill products fit in with the Eastman Kodak - Kodak Alaris relationship. Is there some loophole that lets EK sell film to a KA competitor? Does EK pretend that Cinestill is making movies? Does KA not...

    Kodak Portra 800 and ColorPlus 200 now on polyester base

    ...use it in a motion picture or high speed motor drive camera unless it has been perfectly adjusted (ESTAR is strong and won't tear). The Kodak Alaris technical document still says acetate for both 135 and 120 sizes. Is there an indication on the Facebook page whether the change applies to both...

    Some "good" film news...

    Kodak (Alaris or Eastman) no longer has dealers - they don't deal directly with retailers (or end users). They only sell to distributors. I'm surprised about the $60,000.00 figure. Back when I was in retail, a Kodak dealer in Canada only had to buy a few hundred dollars worth of materials at...

    Does Sino Promise Holdings make the Kodak C41 Chemicals?

    Sino Promise appears to have been at least related to the Chinese entity that has been making a large portion of the Kodak Alaris colour chemicals for several years. They now identify as actually being the manufacturer. Prior to the recent sale of business of the photo-chemical and colour paper...

    I must have missed the memo on a Tri-X 400 price increase

    ...HP5+ last week but as discussed in other threads, I eventually will try some of the suggested films (Arista Ultra EDU 400 and Foma) If Kodak Alaris keeps using old Kodak's Rochester facilities prices will keep increasing. Eastman Kodak is now a pharmaceutical company and I don't know who...

    I must have missed the memo on a Tri-X 400 price increase

    I wince when "Tri-X" is referred to as a "Kodak" film. If the bankruptcy administrator had withheld rights to the Kodak® and Tri-X® trademarks, then the film would be referred to as Alaris 400 Speed. As to the price increases, those pension obligations aren't going to pay for themselves, so...
