    ...and keeps alive kodak products, not KA. KPP2 missmanaged his assets, now "The trustees of KPP2 intend to hand over what’s left of the Kodak Alaris group – after attempts to sell some or all of the various business units – to the UK Pension Protection Fund. This is a government-run fund which...

    You better contact your Representives and Senators and start an investigation. Check under your bed while you are at it. They will arise as vapors from your floor and get you!

    Considering my experience of ordering T-Max film this autumn in the UK, I'm not sure how efficient Kodak Alaris are.

    IMO what Alaris did is "Icing and no cake". It's easy to be a motivator if another one makes then industrial effort, makes the investment and takes all financial risk of the operation. Me, I'd also have applauded the Vision 3 people initiative, if I had granted the distribution of a new product...

    @Agulliver There's always the non trivial chance that Kodak Alaris, Ilford, Fuji ... sells to the US distributor at a lower price. The US is a large market, with a population above 300M, served by a single distributor. The EU might be a larger market, with or without the UK, but is served by...

    This is inconsistent with what my Eastman Kodak sources tell me - Kodak Alaris were the ones who were the main motivators behind the E6 revival. It probably wouldn't have happened if there was not a perceived benefit as well to the motion picture marketplace. Many of the people in Kodak Alaris...

    I think the same is true for Ilford products as well and yes, it is irritating. Perhaps it's a market size kind of thing, but still irritating.

    ...but it is not an area I have any expertise or experience in. On the stills front, I hope Kodak films don't keep going up in price. One note though is that Kodak Alaris seems to allow / achieve much higher prices in Europe and the UK compared to North America which is rather irritating...

    Please let me clarify, digital is fantastic and some scenes in a film shooting have to be shot digitally, also what first they do with Vision 3 is scanning and processing it hybrid. But Vision 3 is technically way superior to digital for cinematography for several reasons, one is dedicated...

    ...as we can chose to photograph with film technology or digital, along with the varying degrees of analogue that go along with the process, motion picture or stills? Kodak Alaris still have the marketing and distribution responsibility etc for stills film which must have costs associated with it.

    I'd say that the Ektachrome resurrectors were the Vision 3 people. They made this camera: https://www.kodak.com/consumer/products/super8/default.htm Kodak Vision 3 it's the most powerful imaging system in the world for cinematography, blowing miles away anything digital, but "No Film School"...

    And yet, it was Kodak Alaris who were the main motivators for bringing back Ektachrome (still) film, not Eastman Kodak, who sell the motion picture version. And it is Kodak Alaris who are discussing new films with Eastman Kodak - including at least one film that Eastman Kodak never sold. Kodak...

    I love Eastman Kodak, but I hate Kodak Alaris. This deserves an explanation. Today film lovers are mainly enthusiasts, my personal view is that Kodak marketing policy is oriented to short term profits because they have no faith in film, they don't know what the business will be in the future...

    I agree, film has become a luxury good. Low volumes drive high prices every step of the way. I have a freezer full of film. Ilford has a better business model than Kodak Alaris, IMHO.

    Actually, Kodak Alaris received book debts as part of the bankruptcy settlement. That is why well their net profits before taxes are good, their application of the debts to those profits result in a "book" loss - thus no taxes. And as for "no value" - Eastman Kodak bears no costs related to...

    Ektachrome in 120 and 4x5” released!

    You can buy 5x7 Ektachrome. All that's necessary is convincing enough other 5x7 shooters to do the same so Kodak Alaris' minimum order quantity is met. Keith Canham has already posted about this:

    There are no warehousing substantial costs... 1Kg of film boxes has a value ranging from $120 to $500, warehousing of milk is at least 100 times more expensive by value unit. ____ Today distribution is very efficient, a single warehouse in the middle may distribute to big retailers as...

    Eastman Kodak transferred all their still film, chemicals and colour paper marketing capacity to Kodak Alaris as part of the bankruptcy. The original employees of Kodak Alaris were almost all ex-Eastman Kodak or Eastman Kodak subsidiary employees. Essentially all the warehousing capacity was...

    Well, today distribution costs are very low, e-commerce is quite efficient, and shipping from wharehouses is paid by consumers. Eastman Kodak has a high distribution cost because Alaris is in the middle, and Alaris is in the middle because EK had debts with UK pension plan. IMO Kodak film high...

    If you compare the Kodak prices in the EU vs USA then it looks that in the EU price is "saturated", a Portra 160 4x5" box is $70, $7 per sheet. In the USA price (B&H) is $37, just the half.

    Purely my guess work but I'd think that cheaper film products such as Color Plus will increase up to 30% while the more expensive lines including bulk products won't have such a large increase. Ultimately everything needs to make financial sense for Kodak....21% increase in film related sales...

    Hello, I have asked Kodak Alaris Germany how much the prices will be increased. They replied the increase is in the 0 (yes 0) to 30% range. Depending on the product. So we will probably see very differentiated price increases which differ significantly from product to product. Best regards, Henning
