I think KodakAlaris is doing the best they can trying to get ahead of this. This isn't a Eastman Kodak problem like occurred with the 120 backing paper. New supplier, new mixing equipment, something probably malfunctioned and didn't add correct quantities. I have one bag of the new stuff, I...
...biggest player in this field. They have three RA-4 silver-halide paper factories: one in Japan, one in the US, one in the Netherlands. KodakAlaris is on second position, Lucky on third.
Almost all of the production is used by professional labs: By the big mass volumes labs which have a...
If you have any personal relationships with the Kodak administration, I hope you will tell them about the complaint of the Egyptian Analog Society.
Kodak has an authorized distributor in Egypt and is a very evil man and hates analog photography as it would harm his interests of selling minilab...
Dear forum members and film enthusiasts,
I have very positive and encouraging news from Kodak (Eastman Kodak and KodakAlaris) for you.
Very important:
This is official information from KodakAlaris! It is one of the results of an important conference call of EK / KA in Rochester, KA in UK and...
...excellent. When the "Old Tetenal" went into receivership, I bought a bunch of XTOL and Kodak Rapid Fixer w/ hardener, all from Tetenal. KodakAlaris is sourcing product in USA now. The Tetenal XTOL dissolves better than the OLD Kodak made XTOL which always had a very few little brown bits...
KodakAlaris updated their film handling data sheet to address the new technology. The update is “as expected” and it is not clear if this advise is driven by data or driven by potential liability concerns.
Basically... request hand check...
Seems to be creating the desired "buzz" on this site (Photrio).
And it is a lot cheaper than some other methods.
I'm going to guess that it is a true 1600 ISO B & W emulsion.
And I have absolutely know way of knowing how accurate that guess might be.
That is the trend in the industry...
KodakAlaris has been announcing via Facebook only.
(Mirko from Adox promised to put all kind of announcement on their own site too.)
...ashamed of any of my word. Instead you better consider your words.
I did not say Harman did, but instead I said that from all we know KodakAlaris did. (There even may evolve a legal case for KodakAlaris.)
Harman admitted in 2013 that the base of a certain batch had scratches. The same...
KodakAlaris never sold film they knew to be faulty, just as I am sure Harman doesn't.
We can argue about whether KodakAlaris should have recalled film after they started to see problems that were originally thought to be related to handling, but that is different.
Hi AgX, can you explain to me, simple fellow that I am, how the film is faulty.
I cannot understand why a reaonably inteligent person would suggest that Harman would knowingly sell a faulty product to customers . Are you aware of the history of this firm and its on going comitment to film...
Not all photographers will be happy with that.
From all we know KodakAlaris knowingly let cutomers buy faulty films hoping that not too many turn out bad.
I hope that Harman is sure about such base not effecting the transmissive image in any way, and that this turns out a storm in a glass of...
...50% more employees).
On a global scale, 2018 has already been quite a good year for film sales with significant increase. E.g. both KodakAlaris Germany and Fujifilm Germany reported big backorders for film at Photokina last September. Both together had about 1 million films on backorder...
...sources, working for Kodak in high positions for decades.
And:
At the "Leica Experience Days: Analoge Fotografie" (see the other thread) KodakAlaris Germany was there, too. And they confirmed it.
And, by the way, also official information: Fujifilm is converting/finishing their Instax films...
At KodakAlaris' end, maybe.
But if the result is increased volumes, larger orders by the distributors, more competition between the distributors, larger orders by the retailers from the distributors and more competition between the retailers, not necessarily so.
The KodakAlaris website says, in the label to the exact same datasheet for HC110 - KODAK PROFESSIONAL HC-110 Developer - New Formula, same great results!
Somewhere on a thread that has contemporaneous posts with this one there is a post from someone using the new version in a production...
...be extremely happy to buy Ektachrome for 10$ a roll. But I will gladly pay 12.99$ a roll for it now. At my rate I'm not going to keep kodakalaris in business but I'm doing my part. Shooting slide film for me rounds off to be about 25 rolls a year.
I was shooting fuji slide film before the...
...discussions after my lectures that there was no time left for eating and drinking for me over the two days :smile:
- confirmation from KodakAlaris Germany that Ektachrome E100 in 120 is "in preparation" (no official introduction date yet)
- the absolute highlights have been the real slide...
Loads of billboards in Luton where I live, and London where I work. One rather witty one in Luton a couple of years ago was advertising the ad company itself with a huge image of Donald Trump "Look what advertising did for me!" Also electronic billboards including on bus shelters which are...
Matt,
Thanks for posting this. Kodak and KodakAlaris are doing some very good work for us film fans.
Please folks stay focused on the Kodak part of this story. I developed a roll of TMY 2 from my old 1st generation fuji 617 tonight, in XTOL, Kodak chemistry from start to a final couple of...
I hope KodakAlaris is paying attention to youtube. That is where new film photographers are initiated. Some channels are better than others, but new film shooters have a lot to learn about buying a used film camera, how to process, scanning, perhaps printing, and so forth. KodakAlaris might...
Here more about the manufacturer of this 35mm camera:
the Sino Promise Group is the largest agent of the US company, KodakAlaris, in the Greater China region.
The Group serves 8000 Kodak Express (KEX) outlets in the region, and is responsible for the sale and distribution of 10 world branded...
