    New Dektol looks like root beer

    Thanks for pointing this out. Dektol is my developer of choice, and I've got some on backorder, so it's good to be aware of what's going on with it. Dale

    Don't worry about it. From Kodak Alaris' website: Update: KODAK PROFESSIONAL DEKTOL Developer / Packet to make 1 gal (CAT# 516 0270) Recent batches of DEKTOL with date codes of August 2019 or later have been coming out darker than normal when mixed. This is due to a non-photo active...

    XTOL replenished, JOBO... I need help!

    Avoid "these problems" including replenish. The Tmax non-RS can be used economically 1:4 as one-shot with the appropriate volume and temp for Jobo roller processing. The liquid lasts a long time in the undiluted bottle.

    I'm not sure that T-Max RS (the version designed for a replenishment regime) is still being manufactured. Their is no SKU for it on the Kodak Alaris 2019 updated list of SKUs: https://imaging.kodakalaris.com/sites/uat/files/wysiwyg/pro/chemistry/Kodak_BW_Chemical_CATALOG_ITEM_NUMBER_UPDATE_2019.pdf

    DIY Control Strips?

    Try contacting Kodak Alaris: profilm@kodakalaris.com Do you deal with a commercial supplier for processing supplies? They may have access to existing sources (if any).

    Hi Dusty Negative I'd contact kodak alaris for the film, and I am guessing they would like to know which stores still, inadvertently have old film stock and don't realize it. goodluck ! John

    Eastman Kodak: Strong increasing demand for movie film

    Hello Matt, I completely agree with you. Just some additional information: Eastman Kodak and Kodak Alaris are extremely aware of the fact that they need each other in the business of still / photo film. Therefore they are cooperating in a very close relationsship. That even includes that EK...

    Eastman Kodak: Strong increasing demand for movie film

    I have reliable information indicating that Eastman Kodak and Kodak Alaris are looking at and/or working on bringing back old still film products and introducing new still film products. But Eastman Kodak is doing so in its role as a supplier to Kodak Alaris, not as a supplier to the world at...

    The video is from Eastman Kodak, not Kodak Alaris. Kodak Alaris is the separate entity that owns all the rights to market still film, photo chemistry and colour photographic paper. While Eastman Kodak owns the trademarks, they own none of those marketing rights. They have an exclusive...

    The Price of 8x10 Color Film Out of Control

    The spectral sensitivity and spectral density of PORTRA 160NC and 160VC were the same, by design. The same is true of 400NC and 400VC. Portra 800 is close but somewhat different. <== That is my experience and what is published by Kodak because it was designed and formulated that way...

    Eastman Kodak: Strong increasing demand for movie film

    It looks like they are aiming at the mass market again. The video appears to be aimed at retailers, not just photo retailers. It reminds me a bit of the minilab lab push back in the late 1980's early 1990's when they sprang up everywhere. I know this is different as it is an all in one unit that...

    How much will Kodak film prices increase?

    I had a fair number of communications with both Kodak Alaris and my favourite local retailer when the backing paper problems were at their height. Both were challenged by the realities of the distribution network. And neither of them have the resources to take over the distribution themselves...

    How much will Kodak film prices increase?

    Will the distribution economies of scale ever account for the premium currently being charged. If none of this is either Kodak's fault or the distributor's fault then surely there has to be nothing short of an enormous change to volumes of a kind I find difficult to believe possible Even a...

    Can chemistry issues cause pinholes in modern Tri-X / Kodak recommends hardening fixer??

    I just completed an email to Kodalaris with details about where the film was purchased from, the lot number, my process and the above image attached. . You're correct, the film was not subject to any chemistry out of order; it was loaded into the clean, dry tank before I decanted or in the case...

    Can chemistry issues cause pinholes in modern Tri-X / Kodak recommends hardening fixer??

    Then I think you should contact Kodak Alaris about the problem. The shape of the spots discounts dust on the film at exposure time and the only other cause I can think of is tiny droplets of fixer or some other chemical reaching the film before development, which seems unlikely to me. I hope you...

    Can chemistry issues cause pinholes in modern Tri-X / Kodak recommends hardening fixer??

    These weren't air bells, but tiny pin-holes. Also, I ritualistically rap my tank on the counter 4 times after every agitation cycle. I learned the hard way what air bells look like as a kid. I never presoaked Tri-X in the past and never had issues. I presoak Fomapan, but only to get the festive...

    Welcome to Photrio. You definitely should reach out to Kodak Alaris with details: profilm@kodakalaris.com That being said, there are a lot of Tri-X users here, and we haven't been hearing of problems like this. For a fairly long period of time Kodak was having a lot of problems with the backing...

    ...the base; that shouldn't happen with any modern filmstock, which don't need a hardener unless you're developing at high temps. It does sound odd and might be worthwhile posting an image of the problem here. It might be worthwhile contacting Kodak Alaris about the problem so they can investigate.

    Matt, thank you for one of the rare intelligent comments concerning film prices.
